There are two real number solutions for x2 − 5x + 7 = 0: x = 2 and x = 7.

1. x2 − 5x + 7 = 0

2. (x - 2)(x - 7) = 0

3. x = 2 or x = 7

When solving for the real number solutions of x2 − 5x + 7 = 0, we first need to factor the equation into two linear terms: (x - 2)(x - 7) = 0. From here, we can use the Zero Product Property to determine that x = 2 and x = 7 are the two real number solutions of this equation. This means that when x is equal to 2 or 7, the equation will equal 0 and all other values of x will result in a non-zero answer. Therefore, the only two real number solutions of x2 − 5x + 7 = 0 are x = 2 and x = 7.

Answer: Meaghan is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a number like:

123.45

the tens place would be the "2" (second number at the left of the decimal point)

The ones place would be the "3" (first number at the left of the decimal point)

Let's suppose that Lily is correct.

Then the quotient of:

43.61/7

Will be a number with two digits in the left of the decimal point.

The smallest number that meets this condition, is the number 10.

Then let's see:

7*10 = 70

then:

70/7 = 10

and:

43.61 < 70

(70 is larger than 43.61)

then:

43.61/7 < 70/7 = 10

Then:

(43.61/7) < 10

This means that our quotient is smaller than 10, then the first digit of the quotient can not be on the tens place.

Then Meaghan is the correct one.

We also could perform the quotient to find:

43.61/7 = 6.23

So yes, Meaghan is correct.

Using an exponential function, it is found that the video got 8,314 total views over the course of the first 12 days.

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

\(A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t\)

In which:

On the first day it was posted online, a music video got 250 views, and the number increased by 16% a day, hence the A(0) = 250, r = 0.16, and the equation is given by:

\(A(t) = 250(1.16)^t\)

The total amount over the first 12 days is given by:

\(T = \int_{0}^{12} A(t) dt\)

\(T = \int_{0}^{12} 250(1.16)^t dt\)

\(T = 250\frac{(1.16)^t}{\ln{1.16}}|_{t = 0}^{t = 12}\)

Applying the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:

\(T = 250\frac{(1.16)^{12}}{\ln{1.16}} - 250\frac{(1.16)^0}{\ln{1.16}}\)

T = 8314.

The point where marginal cost equals $15 is at the production of the 7th pizza. Therefore, the firm should produce 7 pizzas.

The firm's shut-down price is the price at which the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down.

Using the table provided, we can calculate the missing values:

Variable Cost:

For 0 pizzas, the variable cost is $0.

For 1 pizza, the variable cost is $10.

For 2 pizzas, the variable cost is $12.

For 3 pizzas, the variable cost is $2.

For 4 pizzas, the variable cost is $1.

For 5 pizzas, the variable cost is $2.

For 6 pizzas, the variable cost is $3.

For 7 pizzas, the variable cost is $13.

For 8 pizzas, the variable cost is $16.

For 9 pizzas, the variable cost is $3.

For 10 pizzas, the variable cost is $6.

For 11 pizzas, the variable cost is $4.

Total Cost: To calculate the total cost, we simply add the variable cost and the fixed cost for each level of output. The fixed cost is not given in the table, so we cannot calculate the total cost.

Average Variable Cost:

To calculate the average variable cost, we divide the variable cost by the level of output. For example, the average variable cost for 1 pizza is $10/1 = $10.

Average Fixed Cost:To calculate the average fixed cost, we divide the fixed cost by the level of output.

Average Total Cost: To calculate the average total cost, we add the average variable cost and the average fixed cost. The firm should produce pizzas up to the point where marginal cost equals marginal revenue.

This is the point where the firm maximizes its profit. From the table, we can see that the marginal cost is increasing as output increases, while the marginal revenue remains constant at $15.

Answer: x = 3, y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+3y=-3 , 2x+4y=-22

Isolate x for 6x + 3y = -3: x = - y-1/2

Substitute x = - y-1/2: [2(- y-1/2) + 4y = -22]

Simplify: 3y - 1 = -22

Isolate y for 3y - 1 = -22: y = -7

Now we add x's value into y: - y-1/2 --> 7-1/2 --> 6/2 = 3

The highest exponent of x in F(x) is 37, which means the algebraic degree of the function is 37.

The function F(x) is a cubic function.

Here, we have,

given function is:

F(x) = α⁴⁹ * x³⁷ + α⁵² * x²⁸ + α⁸¹ * x¹³ + α²⁶ * x⁹ + α³¹ * x

To determine the algebraic degree of the given (7,7)-function F(x), we need to find the highest exponent of x in the function.

F(x) = α⁴⁹ * x³⁷ + α⁵² * x²⁸ + α⁸¹ * x¹³ + α²⁶ * x⁹ + α³¹ * x

The algebraic degree of a polynomial function corresponds to the highest exponent of the variable in the function.

Linear functions have an algebraic degree of 1, affine functions have an algebraic degree of 1 or 0, quadratic functions have an algebraic degree of 2, and cubic functions have an algebraic degree of 3.

so, we get,

The highest exponent of x in F(x) is 37, which means the algebraic degree of the function is 37.

The graph consists of 3 lines with different equations and slopes. In order to determine the function it represents, we will create a piecewise function.

For the line crossing the negative x-axis

Using the coordinate points (-4, 2) and (-2, -4)

Slope = -6/2

Slope = -3

2 = -3(-4) + b
2 - 12 = b

b = -10

The equation of the line will be y = -3x-10

For the line crossing the negative y-axis

Using the coordinate points (-2, -4) and  (2,-2)

Slope = 2/4

Slope = 1/2

-2 = 1/2(2) + b
-2 - 1 = b

b = -3

The equation of the line will be y = -1/2x-3

For the line crossing the positive x-axis

Using the coordinate points (2, -2) and (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation: I'm pretty sure

The area of the pieces of the larger Pie in comparison to those of the smaller by will be 16 times bigger.

Among the two pies let us say that the diameter of the smaller Pie is d and the diameter of the bigger Pie is D.

It is given to us that 4d = D.

As we know that the Pie are assumed to be circular in shape. Hence,

The area of the smaller Pie can be given by,

A' =π(d/2)²

The area of the bigger Pie can be given by,

A = π(D/2)²

Solving further,

A = πD²/4

Putting D = 4d,

A = π(4d)²/4

A = π16d²/4

Putting πd²/4 = A',

We get,

A = 16A'

So, here we can control that the area of the larger Pie is 16 times of the area of the smaller Pie.

25% of the time, you will roll a 2 on a six-sided die and draw a diamond or spade card from a normal deck of cards.

13 spades and 13 diamonds are present in the 52-card deck. This totals 26 cards, or half the deck. 50% or 1/2 of the possibility exists. In a deck of cards, there are 4 6s and 13 spades. Due to the fact that one six has already been covered by a spade, the total number of possibilities is 52, with alternative outcomes being 13 + 4 + 1.

Consequently, the likelihood is 16/52. The probability of drawing a spade in the second draw is 13/51, or 0.2549; the chance of drawing an ace or a spade is 16/52, or 4/13. The probability of drawing a spade at random, for instance, is calculated by adding up the number of spades in a full deck (13) and dividing this number by the total number of cards in the deck (52): 13 in 52, or 25%.

a) The probability of randomly selecting 4 males out of 7 spectators, given that 70% of the spectators are males, can be calculated using the binomial probability formula.

b) To find the probability that at most 5 of the randomly selected spectators are females, we need to calculate the cumulative probability of selecting 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 females from the total number of selected spectators.

a) To calculate the probability of selecting 4 males out of 7 spectators, we can use the binomial probability formula:

P(X = k) = C(n, k) * p^k * (1 - p)^(n - k)

Where:

- n is the total number of trials (number of people selected)

- k is the number of successful trials (number of males selected)

- p is the probability of success in a single trial (probability of selecting a male)

- C(n, k) is the binomial coefficient, calculated as C(n, k) = n! / (k! * (n - k)!)

In this case, n = 7, k = 4, and p = 0.70 (probability of selecting a male). Therefore, the probability of selecting 4 males out of 7 spectators is:

P(X = 4) = C(7, 4) * (0.70)^4 * (1 - 0.70)^(7 - 4)

b) To find the probability that at most 5 of the selected spectators are females, we need to calculate the cumulative probability of selecting 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 females. This can be done by summing the individual probabilities for each case.

P(X ≤ 5 females) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

To calculate each individual probability, we use the same binomial probability formula as in part a), with p = 0.30 (probability of selecting a female).

Finally, we sum up the probabilities for each case to find the probability that at most 5 of the selected spectators are females.
