D. 50. The width of the interval is calculated as 2z × sqrt(var/n). The interval expands under these conditions: z is larger and n is lesser. Among the given choices, the smallest n is 50.

Two of the steps in the derivation of the quadratic formula are shown below. Step 6: StartFraction b squared minus 4 a c Over 4
babunello [11306]

Explanation:

Step-by-step clarification:

Referring to step 6

(b² — 4ac) / 4a² = (x + b/2a)²

The mistake in the question is that it should be (x + b/2a)²

According to step 7

±√(b² —4ac) /2a = x + b/2a

The error in the question is that it should be divided by 2a, not 1a.

1. The transition from step 6 to step 7 involves taking the square roots of both sides

(b² — 4ac) / 4a² = (x + b/2a)²

Taking the square of both sides

√(b²—4ac) / √4a² = √(x + b/2a)²

√(b²—4ac) / 2a = x + b/2a

This forms step 7 correctly.

Next, subtracting b/2a from both sides

√(b²—4ac) / 2a - b/2a= x + b/2a -b/2a

√(b²—4ac) / 2a — b/2a = x

(√(b²—4ac)  — b)/2a = x

x = [—b ± √(b²—4ac)] / 2a

This gives the desired formula.

The discriminant is D = b²—4ac.

How many solutions does the equation sin(5x) = 1/2 have on the interval (0, 2PI]
lawyer [12096]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

Sin(5x) = ½

5x = arcSin(½)

5x = 30°

Then,

The general formula for sin is

5θ = n180 + (-1)ⁿθ

Dividing throughout by 5

θ = n•36 + (-1)ⁿ30/5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

The solution range is

0<θ<2π which means 0<θ<360

First solution

When n = 0

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿθ

θ = 0×36 + (-1)^0×6

θ = 6°

When n = 1

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36-6

θ = 30°

When n = 2

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×2 + 6

θ = 78°

When n =3

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×3 - 6

θ = 102°

When n=4

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×4 + 6

θ = 150

When n=5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×5 - 6

θ = 174°

When n = 6

θ = 36n+ (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×6 + 6

θ = 222°

When n = 7

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×7 - 6

θ = 246°

When n =8

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×8 + 6

θ = 294°

When n =9

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×9 - 6

θ = 318°

When n =10

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×10 + 6

θ = 366°

When n = 10 surpasses the θ range

Thus, the solutions range from n =0 to n=9

Therefore, there are 10 solutions within the interval 0<θ<2π

The proof diagram to complete the question state the missing reason in the proof for the letter given
tester [11900]

ANSWER

Initially, it was established that line p is parallel to line r.

To begin with the proof:

As stated in the prompt:

∠1 ≈∠5

∠1 and ∠5 are corresponding angles.

Utilizing the property of corresponding angles,

if two lines are intersected by a transversal such that the corresponding angles are


congruent, then those lines must be parallel.


In the diagram, q acts as the transversal.

Thus, based on this characteristic,

line p is parallel to line r.

Proof of 1(a)

REASON

Vertically opposite angle

When two lines intersect, the angles formed are referred to as vertically opposite angles.

Therefore,

∠4 and ∠1 are vertically opposite angles,

hence,

∠4 ≈∠1

Proof of 2(b)

REASON

Alternate interior angle

The angles situated on either side of the transversal, within the two lines, are termed alternate interior angles. When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, the alternate interior angles produced will be congruent.

Since line p is parallel to line r (as proven above)

and q is the transversal,

then

∠4 ≈∠5

Thus, it is established.

Proof of 3 (c)

Given that ∠4 ≈ ∠5 (as demonstrated above)

REASON

If two lines are intersected by a transversal such that the alternate interior angles are congruent, then those lines are parallel.

Thus, based on the previously mentioned property,

line p is parallel to line r.

Therefore, it is proven.

The value of Zlatan's house has increased by 7%. his house is now valued at £749,000. work out the value of the house before the
Inessa [12141]

Answer:

£700,000

Detailed explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the house. Keeping in mind that

7%=\frac{7}{100}

Upon a 7% increase in the house value, it is now set at £749,000. We can express this as

x+\frac{7}{100}x = 749,000

We can solve for x now:

x+\frac{7x}{100}=749,000\\100x + 7x = 74,900,000\\107 x = 74,900,000\\x=\frac{74,900,000}{107}=700,000

Thus, the initial valuation of the house was

£700,000
