A) Find the values of k for which the equation x 2 − 2(2k + 1)x + (k + 2) = 0 has 2 equal roots.

Answers

Answer:

1/4 and -1

Step-by-step explanation:

For a quadratic equation to have 2 equal root, the discriminant value must be equal to zero.

Discriminant D = b² - 4ac = 0

Given the equation

x^2 − 2(2k + 1)x + (k + 2) = 0

From the equation, a  = 1, b = -2(2k+1), c = k+2

a = 1, b = -4k - 2, c = k+2

Substitute into the discriminant formula;

Recall that: b² - 4ac = 0

(-4k - 2)²-4(1)(k+2) = 0

16k²+16k + 4 - 4k - 8  =0

16k²+12k - 4 = 0

16k²+16k - 4k - 4 = 0

16k(k+1)-4(k+1) = 0

16k - 4 = 0 and k+1 = 0

16k = 4 and k = -1

k = 4/16 and k = -1

k = 1/4 and -1

Hence the required value of k is 1/4 and  -1

Q- A bag contain red, yellow and blue beads.

The ratio of red beads to yellow beads is 2:3
The ratio of yellow beads to blue beads is 5:4

Work out what fraction of the beads are red.

Answers

Answer:

The fraction of the beads that are red is

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Expressions

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b} \qquad\qquad [1][/tex]

Knowing that:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3} \qquad\qquad [2][/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Multiplying the equations above:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6} \qquad\qquad [3][/tex]

Dividing [1] by r:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}[/tex]

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}[/tex]

The fraction of the beads that are red is [tex]\mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}[/tex]

2. Rohit has notes of denominations 1000, 500 & 20. He has 40 notes of Rs.20 and 20
notes of Rs.1000. He made a payment of Rs.29300. How many notes of Rs.500 did he have?
a) 12
b) 14
c) 18
d) 17

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many notes of Rs. 500 he has, we need to find out the total value of all the Rs. 500 notes.

Total value of Rs. 20 notes = 20 × 40

                                             = 800

Total value of Rs. 1000 notes = 1000 × 20

                                                 = 20 000

Total value of Rs. 500 notes = 29 300 - 800 - 20 000

                                                = 8500

No. of Rs. 500 notes = 8500 ÷ 500

                                   = 17

Rohit has total 17 notes of Rs.500

What is Unitary method?

" Unitary method is the process of finding value of one unit using which we can find the value of other units."

According to the question,

Number of Rs.20 notes = 40

Total amount of Rs.20 = 20 × 40

                                     = Rs.800

Number of Rs.1000 notes = 20

Total amount of Rs.1000 = 20 × 1000

                                         = Rs.20,000

Total amount of Rs.20 and Rs.1000 notes = 20,000 +800

                                                                      = Rs.20,800

Made a payment of Rs.29,300

Left amount of Rs.500 notes = 29,300 -20,800

                                                = Rs.8500

Number of Rs.500 notes = 8500 ÷ 500

                                          = 17 notes of Rs.500

Hence, Rohit has total 17 notes of Rs.500.

A store spends 1/4 of its income on salaries and 1/6 of its income on advertising. If the store pays $150,000 for salaries, how much does it spend on advertising? Be sure to explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

$100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total income of the store = [tex]\$x[/tex]

Total spends on salaries = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of total income

Total spends on advertising = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of total income

Also, we are given that:

Total money paid as salaries = $150,000

To find:

Total spends on advertising ?

Solution:

As per question statement, we can write the following equation:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}x =\$150000\\\Rightarrow x =\$150000\times 4\\\Rightarrow x = \$600000[/tex]

Now, as per the given statement, total spends on advertising are:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{6}x =\dfrac{1}{6}\times 600000 = \bold{\$100,000 }[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is $100,000

characterize the slope of the line in the graph

Answers

Answer:

Please check the attached graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: You did not add the graph; so I am taking a sample graph to clear the concept anyway. Please check the referred graph attached below.

The slope on the graph basically tells us the time rate of change.

In other words, it describes the steepness of a straight line.

The slope can also be termed as:

Slope = rise / run

From the attached graph, taking twp points

(0, 3)(-1, 0)

Finding the slope between (0, 3) and (-1, 0) using the formula

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-1,\:0\right)[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{0-3}{-1-0}[/tex]

Thus, the slope of the given line on the graph = m = 3

Answer:

slope intercept form:

y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis which in this example is at (0, 2). The y intercept is 2. The slope can be found by plugging in the x and y values of any 2 points on the line into the equation: y2 - y1 / x2- x1:

y2 - y1 / x2- x1

4-2 / 5-0

2/5 is the slope

Answers

Answer:

x = 21

y = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to find the values of x and y

Mathematically;

3x - 15 + 6x + 6 = 180

reason for this is that opposite interior angles are supplementary, they add up to 180

9x-9 = 180

9x = 180 + 9

9x = 189

x = 189/9

x = 21

Also;

3x-15 + y + 18 = 180

Reason for this is that angles on a straight line are supplementary

Recall, x = 21

3(21)-15 + y + 18 = 180

63-15 + y + 18 = 180

y = 180-66

y = 114 degrees

The largest ball of yarn ever created has a radius of 6 feet. It took 30 years to create.

Using 3.14 for pi which choice is the volume of the ball of yarn nearest hundred

87.85 cubic feet
150.72 cubic feet
834.68 square feet
904.32 cubic feet​

Answers

Answer:

904.32 cubic ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a sphere, the formula is [tex]4\pi\frac{r^3}{3}[/tex]

First, 3.14 * 4 for 12.56.

The radius is 6, and that cubed is 216.

After that, divide 216 by 3 for 72

Then, 12.56 times 72, which gets you the final answer of  904.32 cubic ft.

(10 * 72) + (2 * 72) + (0.5 * 72) + (0.06 * 72)

720 + 144 = 864

864 + 36 = 900

900 + 4.32 = 904.32
