Write the quadratic equation whose roots are −6 and 4, and whose leading coefficient is 4. (Use the letter x to represent the variable.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4(x-4)(x+6)

Standard form: 4x^2+8x-96

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roots are set to be -6 and 4, we need to find 2 linear equations that are equal to 0 when x is at -6 and when x is at 4, and multiply them together. That would look like this:

(x-4)(x+6)

Notice how if I plug in 4 or -6 for x, the whole thing is going to be 0.

Now, if we were to factor this, the leading coefficient would be 1. Since we want to change the leading coefficient while still preserving our roots, we can just multiply the whole polynomial by 4:

4(x-4)(x+6)

Notice if I still plug in 4 or -6 for x, the whole thing is going to be 0.

In standard form, the polynomial would be 4x^2+8x-96.

Shanice's Bakery makes two types of wedding cakes: Pink cake, which sells for $30, and Yellow cake,
which sells for $35. Both cakes are the same size, but the decorating and assembly time required for the
Pink cake is 2 hours, while the time is 3 hours for the Yellow cake. There are 420 hours of labor available
for production. How many of each type of cake should be made to maximize revenue?

Answers

Answer:

210 Pink cakes and 0 Yellow cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Yellow cake takes about %33.3 more time to prepare but only about %16.6 more revenue, it's always more profitable to make Pink cakes.

QUESTION 1.

Choice C is correct. Subtracting 6 from each side of 5x + 6 = 10 yields 5x = 4.

Dividing both sides of 5x = 4 by 5 yields x =

_4

5

. Te value of x can now be

substituted into the expression 10x + 3, giving 10 ( _4

5 ) + 3 = 11.

Alternatively, the expression 10x + 3 can be rewritten as 2(5x + 6) − 9, and

10 can be substituted for 5x + 6, giving 2(10) − 9 = 11.

Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Each of these choices leads to 5x + 6 ≠ 10,

contradicting the given equation, 5x + 6 = 10. For example, choice A is

incorrect because if the value of 10x + 3 were 4, then it would follow that

x = 0.1, and the value of 5x + 6 would be 6.5, not 10.

QUESTION 2.

Choice B is correct. Multiplying each side of x + y = 0 by 2 gives 2x + 2y = 0.

Ten, adding the corresponding sides of 2x + 2y = 0 and 3x − 2y = 10 gives

5x = 10. Dividing each side of 5x = 10 by 5 gives x = 2. Finally, substituting

2 for x in x + y = 0 gives 2 + y = 0, or y = −2. Terefore, the solution to the

given system of equations is (2, −2).

Alternatively, the equation x + y = 0 can be rewritten as x = −y, and substituting x for −y in 3x − 2y = 10 gives 5x = 10, or x = 2. Te value of y can then

be found in the same way as before.

Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because when the given values of x and

y are substituted into x + y = 0 and 3x − 2y = 10, either one or both of the

equations are not true. Tese answers may result from sign errors or other

computational errors.

QUESTION 3.

Choice A is correct. Te price of the job, in dollars, is calculated using

the expression 60 + 12nh, where 60 is a fxed price and 12nh depends on the

number of landscapers, n, working the job and the number of hours, h, the job

takes those n landscapers. Since nh is the total number of hours of work done

when n landscapers work h hours, the cost of the job increases by $12 for each

hour a landscaper works. Terefore, of the choices given, the best interpretation

of the number 12 is that the company charges $12 per hour for each landscaper.

Choice B is incorrect because the number of landscapers that will work each

job is represented by n in the equation, not by the number 12. Choice C is

incorrect because the price of the job increases by 12n dollars each hour,

which will not be equal to 12 dollars unless n = 1. Choice D is incorrect

because the total number of hours each landscaper works is equal to h. Te

number of hours each landscaper works in a day is not provided.

QUESTION 4.

Choice A is correct. If a polynomial expression is in the form (x)2

+ 2(x)(y) +

(y)2

, then it is equivalent to (x + y)2

. Because 9a4

+ 12a2

b2

+ 4b4

)2

+

2(3a2

)(2b2

) + (2b2

)2

, it can be rewritten as (3a2

+ 2b2

)2

.

Choice B is incorrect. Te expression (3a + 2b)4

is equivalent to the product

(3a + 2b)(3a + 2b)(3a + 2b)(3a + 2b). Tis product will contain the term

4(3a)3

(2b) = 216a3

b. However, the given polynomial, 9a4

+ 12a2

b2

+ 4b4

,

does not contain the term 216a3

b. Terefore, 9a4

+ 12a2

b2

+ 4b4 ≠ (3a + 2b)4

.

Choice C is incorrect. Te expression (9a2

+ 4b2

In the linear expression, the degree of the variable is one.

The sum of 3 and a number x.

Then the expression will be

⇒ 3 + x

The number 3 is a constant number and the term x is a variable.

The expression (x + 3) is a linear expression because the degree of the expression is one.

The number of the variable is one, then the expression is linear expression of one variable.

Thus, the sum of the number 3 and the variable x will be (x + 3).

The square of 356 is 126,736 and the square of 357 is 127,449. What is 3582? Try to solve this problem without multiplying. Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

The problem to get 358² is solved by adding 357 twice and then add 1 to the value of 357²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The square of 356 = 126,736

The square of 357 = 127,449

We note that 357² = (356 + 1)² = 356² + 2×356 + 1 = 126,763 + 712 + 1 = 127,449

We can write the above equation as follows;

357² = (356 + 1)² = 356² + 356 + 356 + 1 = 126,763 + 712 + 1 = 127,449

357² = 127,449

Similarly, we have;

358² = (357 + 1)² = 357² + 357 + 357 + 1 = 128,164

358² =  128,164

We can also look at the question as forming squares with tiles

To form the square tile with 358 units per side, we add an extra row and column of 357 tiles each. Completing the figure with an extra tile at the top right or left corner

Therefore, the area of the 358 unit per side square = The area of the 357 unit per side + 357 + 357 + 1 =  128,164

4. Two times a number added to another number is 25. Three times the first number minus the other number is 20. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:9 & 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first number and y be the second.

 

2x + y = 25

3x - y =20

 

1) Add them together.

 

5x = 45

x = 9

 

2) Solve for y.

 

2(9) + y = 25

y=7

 

3) Check your work on the other equation.

 

3(9) - (7) = 20

27 - 7 =20

20 = 20

A 4-digit number contains at least one even digit.

To find:

How many such numbers are there?

Solution:

Digits are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

Number of odd digits = 5

Number of even digits = 5

4-digit numbers are from 1000 to 9999.

Total number of 4-digit numbers = 9000

Possible ways to get odd digits on all the 4 places is

[tex]5\times 5\times 5\times 5=625[/tex]

It means 625 numbers are their in which all 4 digits are odd.

To find total 4-digit number that contains at least one even digit, subtract the numbers which contains only odd numbers from the total 4-digit numbers.

[tex]9000-625=8375[/tex]

Therefore, total 4-digit number that contains at least one even digit is 8375.
