The roots of the equation (p+2)x^2-2px=5-p are complex; find the range of values of p

Answers

Answer 1

Range of values of the variable p is  [tex]0\leq p\leq \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From general quadratic equation [tex]ax^{2} +bx+c[/tex], for imaginary case-

[tex]D\leq 0\\b^2-4ac\leq 0[/tex]

In given question, [tex]a= p+2[/tex], [tex]b=2p[/tex], [tex]c= 5-p[/tex]

using above condition-

[tex]b^2-4ac = 4p^2-4(2p)(5-p)\leq 0\\4p^2 - 40p+8p^2\leq 0\\12p^2-40p\leq 0\\4p(3p-10)\leq 0[/tex]

Here, [tex]4p\leq 0, p\leq 0[/tex]

and

[tex]3p-10\leq 0\\p\leq \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, range of values of the variable p is  [tex]0\leq p\leq \frac{10}{3}[/tex].

Solve the following for x, x∈W
a) 76 x 75 x 74 x ... x 6 = P(76, x)

Answers

The required value is 70. Using the permutations formula the required value is calculated. I.e.,  P(76, x) = P(76, 70).

How to calculate permutations?

The formula for permutations is

nPr = P(n, r) = n!/(n - r)!

Where P -number of permutations,

n - number of objects in the given set

r - number of choosing objects

Calculation:

The given series is

76 × 75 × 74 × ... × 6 = P(76, x)

We know that,

76!  = 76 × 75 × 74 × ... × 1 ...(i)

But to get the required series,

Divide the equation (i) by 6! = (76 - 70)!

Then,

76!/(76 - 70)! = 76 × 75 × 74 × 73 ... × 6

So, x = 70.

That is,

n!/(n - r)! = P(n, r)

⇒ 76!/(76 - 70)! = P(76, 70) = 2.618743E+108

Hence the required x value is 70.

Answers

Answer:

x = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The line that contains angle x and the 90° angle is a straight line.

A straight line measures as 180°.

So, subtracting the given 90° from the 180° line that the two angles share, we would get the measure of x.

[tex]180-90 =x[/tex]

Which means, [tex]x=90[/tex].

So the value of x is 90°.

Determine the unknown value in the table using the constant of proportionality.
Time (seconds) 12 18 40
Number of Pencils Produced 42 63

Answers

The unknown value in the table using the constant of proportionality is; 96

How to find the constant of proportionality?

The constant of proportionality is the ratio of two proportional values at a constant value. Two variable values have a proportional relationship when either their ratio or their product gives a constant.

We are given the coordinates;

(12, 42), (18, 63), (40, y)

where x-values represents time in seconds and y-values represents number of pencils that were produced.

To find the constant of proportionality is as good as finding the slope between two consecutive points as;

m = (63 - 18)/(42 - 12)

m = (45/30)

m = 1.5

Thus to find the unknown value y, we will use the formula;

(y - y1)/x - x1) = m

So we will use the coordinates; (18, 63), (40, y)

Plugging them into the formula above will result in;

(y - 63)/(40 - 18) = 1.5

y - 63 = 1.5 * 22

y - 63 = 33

y = 33 + 63

y = 96

Thus, we can conclude that using the constant of proportionality, the number of pencils that were produced after a time of 40 seconds is 96 pencils.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]t^2 = b - \frac{h}{x}[/tex]

• First add  [tex]\frac{h}{x}[/tex]  to both sides:

⇒ [tex]\frac{h}{x} + t^2 = b[/tex]

• Now subtract  [tex]t^2[/tex]  from both sides:

⇒ [tex]\frac{h}{x} = b - t^2[/tex]

• Now multiply both sides by [tex]x[/tex] :

⇒ [tex]h = x(b - t^2)[/tex]

x = 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Visualize the figure as a rectangle with width 4 and height 1 combined with a triangle with base 1 and height 1.

Next, use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Variables a and b represent the lengths of the legs, in this case 1 and 1, and variable c represents the length of the hypotenuse, in this case x.

1^2 + 1^2 = x^2

2 = x^2

x = 1.41421356237

Step-by-step explanation:

imagine that this shape is the combination of 2 shapes :

1. a rectangle 4×1

it goes from the top down the side of 4 until the tilted line x begins.

2. a right-angled triangle

x being the Hypotenuse (the baseline opposite of the 90° angle). and the legs are the invisible line of 1 (going from the top right of x in parallel to the 1 line all the way to the 5 line) and the part of the 5 line below the 4 line : 5-4 = 1.

so, x can be solved by using Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

c being the Hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.

x² = 1² + 1² = 2

x = sqrt(2) = 1.414213562... ≈ 1.4

A paper bag contains a mixture of 3 types of candy. there are 10 packs of fuzzy peaches, 7 packs of sour keys, and 3 packs of nerds. suppose a game is played in which a candy is randomly taken from the bag, replaced, and then a second candy is drawn from the bag. if you are allowed to keep the second candy only if it was the same type a the one that was drawn the first time, calculate the probability of each of the following: a) you will keep a pack of fuzzy peaches b) you will be able to keep any of the candy c) you will not be able to keep any of the candy

Answers

The probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be 0.25.

How to calculate the probability?

a. Based on the information given, the probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be:

= 10/(10 + 7 + 3) × 10/(10 + 7 + 3)

= 10/20 × 10/20

= 1/4

= 0.25

The probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be 0.25.

b. The probability to be able to keep any of the candy will be:

= (10/20 × 10/20) + (7/20 × 7/20) + (3/20 × 3/20)

= 100/400 + 49/400 + 9/400

= 158/400

= 0.395

The probability to be able to keep any of the candy will be 0.395.

c. The probability that you will not be able to keep any of the candy will be:

= (10/20 × 10/20) + (7/20 × 13/20) + (3/20 × 17/20)

= 100/400 + 91/400 + 51/400

= 242/400

= 0.605

The probability that you will not be able to keep any of the candy will be 0.605.

What are unpaired electrons?An unpaired electron is an electron that occupies an atom's orbital single rather than as part of an electron pair. Each atomic orbital of an atom can hold two electrons with opposing spins. Because the formation of electron pairs is generally energetically advantageous, whether as a chemical bond or as a lone pair, unpaired electrons are extremely uncommon in chemistry because an entity carrying an unpaired electron is usually quite reactive.

To find the unpaired electrons:

Ag+ represents the d10 system. Because there are no unpaired electrons, the system is diamagnetic.Mn3+ has the electronic structure [Ar]3d44s0. In 3d, there are four unpaired electrons.Because of the loss of three electrons, the chromium ion Cr3+ has 24e3e=21e.

Answers

The graph of Lin's distance as a function of time cannot be a straight line graph because of decrease in speed.

Given that Lin walks half a mile at a constant rate i.e. Lin velocity is constant.

If the speed is low then the time will be high. If speed is high then the time will be low because of the following rule:

Speed=Distance/ time.

For the first five minutes the graph will be upward sloping because he was sprinting and his speed was high so he will cover much more distance.

After a robbery, a thief jumps into a taxi and disappears. An eyewitness on the crime scene is telling the police that the cab is yellow. In order to make sure that this testimony is worth something, the assistant district attorney makes a Bayesian analysis of the situation. After some research, he comes up with the following information: (1) In that particular city, 80% of taxis are black and 20% of taxis are yellow; and (2) Eyewitnesses are not always reliable and from past experience, it is expected that an eyewitness is 80% accurate. In other words, he will identify the color of a taxi accurately (yellow or black) eight out of ten times. What is the probability that the cab was really yellow, given that it was reported as being yellow

Answers

The probability that the cab was really yellow given that it was reported as being yellow is 0.32.

Given that there are 80% black taxis and 20% yellow taxis, witness is 80% accurate.

Probability is the chance of happening an event among all the events possible. It lies between 0 and 1. The value of probability can be calculated through the following formula:

Probability=Number of items/ total items.

Black taxis=80%

Yellow taxs=20%

Eyewitness is accurate=80%

Probability that the cab was really yellow=

P(X=Yellow)P(Witness is correct)+P(X=Black)P(Witness is incorrect)

Probability that car is black=0.8

Probability that car is yellow=0.2

Probability that witness is correct=0.8

Probability that witness is incorrect=1-0.8

=0.2

We have to just put the values in the formula given above.

Required probability=0.2*0.8+0.8*0.2

=0.16+0.16

=0.32

Hence the probability that the cab is really yellow is 0.32.
