Answer: The value of k for which one root of the quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0 is six times the other is k = 3.
Let's look into the solution step by step.
Explanation:
Given: A quadratic equation, kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0
Let the two zeros of the equation be α and β.
According to the given question, if one of the roots is α the other root will be 6α.
Thus, β = 6α
Hence, the two zeros are α and 6α.
We know that for a given quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
The sum of the zeros is expressed as,
α + β = - b / a
The product of the zeros is expressed as,
αβ = c / a
For the given quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0,
a = k, b = -14, c = 8
The sum of the zeros is:
α + 6α = 14 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 7α = 14 / k
⇒ α = 2 / k --------------- (1)
The product of the zeros is:
⇒ α × 6α = 8 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 6α 2 = 8 / k
⇒ 6 (2 / k)2 = 8 / k [From (1)]
⇒ 6 × (4 / k) = 8
⇒ k = 24 / 8
⇒ k = 3
First you need to get all variables on one side. You do that by multiplying the reciprocal of the fraction to everything.
N(5/1) x 1/5(5/1)=2/15(5/1)
5n=2/15 x 5/1
Then solve the multiplication problem
5n= 10/15
Then you should reduce the fraction
5n=2/3
Then divide both sides by 5
5n/5=N
2/3 divided by 5 =2/15
N=2/15
Answer:
x intercept: 15/8 and yintercerpt is 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
to find y intercept you have to put equation in standard form.
10y=-8x+15
y=--4/5x+3/2
x intercept is when y=0, so we plug in 0
0=-4/5x+3/2
4/5x=3/2
x=15/8
See the picture to better understand the problem
we know that
in the triangle ABC
∠A+∠B+∠C=180°
∠C=180-(86+69)-----> ∠C=25°
Applying the law of sines
b/sin B=c/sin C------> b=c*sin B/sin C-----> b=82*sin 69/sin 25
b=181.14 ft
the answer is181.14 ft
