Answer:
a) 4 -
b) 1 -
c) 6 -
Step-by-step explanation:
It simply asks the steps to go from the original displacement formula to isolate a (the acceleration). It's just a matter of moving items around.
We start with:
We then move the vt part on the left side, then multiply each side by -1 (to get rid of the negative on the at side and to match answer choice #4):
Then we multiply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2, answer #1:
Finally, we divide each side by t^2 to isolate a (answer #6):
The square root of 10. The first answer
This is a quadratic formula with a general form of a²x + bx + c = 0. For quadratic equations, we can solve for its two roots using the quadratic formula shown in the attached picture.
a = -3
b = -4
c = -4
x = [-(-4) + √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) =
<em>2 + √-32/2</em>x = [-(-4) - √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) =
<em> 2 - √-32/2</em>
Answer: the number -5 is a real number
Real numbers are both negative and positive numbers. -5 is a negative number. Since real numbers include negative numbers, -5 is the answer.
