X^2-3x=7/4
Solve by completing the square

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2-3x=7/4 should first be rewritten in standard form, which here would be:

x^2 - 3x - 7/4 = 0.

1.  Identify the coefficient of the x term and take half of that number:

    -3/2

2. square this result:  (-3/2)^2 = 9/4

3.  add this last result, 9/4, between the -3x term and the -7/4 term, and then      subtract it as shown:

     x^2 - 3x + 9/4 - 9/4 - 7/4 = 0

4.  Rewriting the first 3 terms as the square of a binomial, we get:

    (x - 3/2)^2  -  16/4 = 0, or    (x - 3/2)^2  =  16/4

5.  Take the square root of both sides, obtaining:

     x - 3/2 = ±√4/2 or ±√2

6.  Write out the two roots:  x = 3/2 + √2

     and                                   x = 3/2 - √2

The school that Shawna goes to is selling tickets to a spring musical. On the first day of ticke sales the school sold 7 adult tickets and 7 student tickets for a total of $91. The school took ir $170 on the second day by selling 14 adult tickets and 12 student tickets. Find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a student ticket.​

Answers

Answer:

price of an adult ticket = a = $7

price of a student ticket = s = $6

Step-by-step explanation:

price of an adult ticket = a

price of a student ticket = s

7a + 7s = 91 (1)

14a + 12s = 170 (2)

Multiply (1) by 2

7a + 7s = 91 (1) × 2

14a + 14s = 182 (3)

14a + 12s = 170 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3) to eliminate x

14s - 12s = 182 - 170

2s = 12

s = 12/2

s = 6

Substitute s = 6 into (1)

7a + 7s = 91 (1)

7a + 7(6) = 91

7a + 42 = 91

7a = 91 - 42

7a = 49

a = 49/7

a = 7

price of an adult ticket = a = $7

price of a student ticket = s = $6

Item 11
A 10-foot ladder leans against a wall so that it is 6 feet high at the top. The ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up. How much higher is the top of the ladder now? (Hint: Let 8−2x be the distance from the base of the ladder to the wall.)

Answers

Answer:

4 ft higher

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ladder is 10 ft long and its top is 6 feet high(above the ground), we find the distance of its base from the wall since these three (the ladder, wall and ground) form a right angled triangle. Let d be the distance from the wall to the ladder.

So, by Pythagoras' theorem,

10² = 6² + d²  (the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse side)

d² = 10² - 6²

d² = 100 - 36

d² = 64

d = √64

d = 8 ft

Since the ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up.

Now, let x be the distance the top of the ladder is moved, the new height of top of the ladder is 6 + x. Since the base moves twice the distance the top of the ladder moves up, the new distance for our base is 8 - 2x(It reduces since it gets closer to the wall).

Now, applying Pythagoras' theorem to the ladder with these new lengths, we have

10² = (6 + x)² + (8 - 2x)²

Expanding the brackets, we have

100 = 36 + 12x + x² + 64 - 32x + 4x²

collecting like terms, we have

100 = 4x² + x² + 12x - 32x + 64 + 36

100 = 5x² - 20x + 100

Subtracting 100 from both sides, we have

100 - 100 = 5x² - 20x + 100 - 100

5x² - 20x = 0

Factorizing, we have

5x(x - 4) = 0

5x = 0 or x - 4 = 0

x = 0 or x = 4

The top of the ladder is thus 4 ft higher

A tax exempt employee benefit is usually more adavantages to the employee than a tax deferred benefit

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, it is, more or less. This is because with a tax-deferred account, tax savings are gotten when you make contributions, but when it then comes to a tax-exempt account, the withdrawals are instead free of tax during retirement.

In a tax-deferred account, you can make immediate tax deductions as much as the full amount of your intended contribution, but then, subsequent withdrawals from the same account will be taxed at the normal income rate.

On the other hand, tax-exempt accounts don't deliver a tax benefit, particularly when you contribute to the them, they provide tax benefits that comes much later

Si un capital de 6800 soles se presta a 12% anual, durante a años y 19 días, ¿Qué interés producirá?

Answers

El número de años no se da de forma exhaustiva. Usando un valor hipotético

Respuesta:

Por favor, consulte la explicación.

Explicación paso a paso:

Suponga que el número de años es igual a 1 año 19 días

Convertir en años; 19 días es igual a 19/365 = 0,0520547; por lo tanto, 1 + 0.0520547 = 1.0520547 años

Recuerde la fórmula de interés simple:

Interés = principal * tasa * tiempo

Interés = 6800 * 0,12 * 1,0520547

Intereses = 858,4766352

Por tanto, si el plazo es de 1 año 19 días; interés = 858.4766352

Si el número de años en el período es diferente, simplemente siga el mismo paso para convertir los días y sume al número exacto si los años se dan.

Two small planes leave Sacramento and LA, which are 380 miles apart, and travel toward each other. If one plane travel 30 miles per hour faster than the other plane and they meet in one hour, what are their respective speeds?
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Answers

Let the speed of the first plane be x then the speed of the second plane would be x + 30

The combined speed is x + x + 30 = 2x + 30

2x + 30 = 380

Subtract 30 from both sides

2x = 350

Divide both sides by 2

X = 175

The speed of the first plane was 175 miles per hour the speed of the second plane was 205 hour
