Let x = j and x = k be solutions to the equation above, with j > k. What is the value of j - k?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
j-k = 13/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula tells you the two solutions are ...
x = (-b/(2a)) ±√(b² -4ac)/(2a)
The difference between these solutions is ...
j-k = √(b² -4ac)/a
j-k = √((-7)² -4(6)(-5))/6 = √(49 +120)/6 = √169/6
j-k = 13/6

Express b+1/3b-2 with “b” as the subject
Answer:
b = [tex]\frac{1+2a}{3a-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
a = [tex]\frac{b+1}{3b-2}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 3b - 2 )
a(3b - 2) = b + 1 ← distribute left side
3ab - 2a = b + 1 ( subtract b from both sides )
3ab - b - 2a = 1 ( add 2a to both sides )
3ab - b = 1 + 2a ← factor out b from each term on the left side
b(3a - 1) = 1 + 2a ( divide both sides by 3a - 1 )
b = [tex]\frac{1+2a}{3a-1}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]→a = \frac{(b + 1)}{(3b - 2)} \\ a(3b - 2) = (b + 1) \\ 3ab - 2a = b + 1 \\ 3ab - b = 2a + 1 \\ b(3a - 1) =( 2a + 1) \\ \boxed{b = \frac{(2a + 1)}{(3a - 1)} }✓[/tex]
b = (2a+1)/(3a-1) is the right answer.Select the correct answer.

.
So option C is the answer
Answer:
C. a1 = -8
an = an-1 * 5/2 for n >1
Step-by-step explanation:
-8, -20, -50, –125, 625,...
We need to find the common ratio
Take the second term and divide by the first term
-20/-8 = 5/2
Take the third term and divide by the second term
-50/-20 = 5/2
The common ratio is 5/2
A geometric sequence is
an = a1 * r^(n-1)
an = -8 *(5/2)^(n-1)
We can also write a recursive formula
a1 = -8
an = an-1 * 5/2 for n >1
Martina has 240 meters of fencing and wishes to form three sides of a rectangular field. The fourth side borders a river and will not need fencing.
As shown below, one of the sides has length x (in meters).

Side along river
(a) Find a function that gives the area Ax of the field (in square meters) in terms of x.
=Ax
(b) What side length x gives the maximum area that the field can have?
Side lengthx:meters
(c) What is the maximum area that the field can have?
Maximum area:square meters
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answering a comes from simplification, and answering b and c are done all in one step: completing the square on the quadratic that results from a.
(a) If Martina has 240 m of fencing and is only utilizing one side for the length and 2 sides for the width, the perimeter formula is
240 = x + 2w where x is a length and w is the width. Solving this for w in terms of x:
240 - x = 2w so
[tex]w=120-.5x[/tex] The area for a rectangle is L * W, so our area using the lengths we have is
A(x) = x(120 - .5x) and we simplify:
A(x) = 120x - .5x² That's the answer to a.
Now for b and c, we will complete the square on this to get the vertex.
Begin by factoring out the -.5:
[tex]A(x)=-.5(x^2-240x)[/tex] Now we take half the linear term, square it and add it both inside the parenthesis and outside the parenthesis. Our linear term is 240. Half of 240 is 120, and 120 squared is 14400:
[tex]A(x)=-.5(x^2-240x+14400)+7200[/tex] (The 7200 comes from multiplying the 14400 times the -.5; -.5 times 14400 is -7200 so to balance things out, we have to add 7200).
The perfect square binomial that results from this is
A(x) = -.5(x - 120)² + 7200. From this we determine that our vertex is
(120, 7200). The 120 is the value of x, the length we are asked to find in b; the 7200 is the max area we are asked to find in c.
The required solutions are,,
(a) area = 240x - 2x²
(b) the side adjacent to the rivers gives the maximum length of the field.
(c) the maximum area could be 6400-meter square.
The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.
Here,
length of the field is x,
The perimeter of the field, = 240
x + x + width = 240
width = 240 - 2x
now,
(a)
area of the field,
= length * width,
= x(240-2x)
= 240x - 2x²
Similarly,
(b) the side adjacent to the rivers gives the maximum area of the field.
(c) the maximum area could be 6400-meter square.
Thus, the required solutions are mentioned above.

A scientist is studying the growth and development of an epidemic virus with a growth rate of 9% per month that has infected 3,124 people. If this rate continues, what will be the number of infected people in another 9 months? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
About 6,785 people will be infected about nine months.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write an exponential function to represent the situation. The standard exponential function is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = a(r)^x[/tex]
Where a is the initial value, r is the rate, and x, in this case, is the time that has passed in months.
3,124 people have already been infected. Thus, our initial value a = 3124.
And an additional 9% will be infected per month. Therefore, our rate r will be 1 + 9% or 1.09.
Hence, our function is:
[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = 3124(1.09)^x[/tex]
Then after nine months, the total amount of infected people will be f(9):
[tex]\displaystyle f(9) = 3124(1.09)^{(9)}[/tex]
Use a calculator:
[tex]\displaystyle f(9) \approx 6785[/tex]
About 6,785 people will be infected about nine months.
