Question:

Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2 + 4x + 5 = 0 and identify the nature of its roots.

Answer Choices:

A) A. The roots are real and unequal.
B) B. The roots are real and equal.
C) C. The roots are complex and conjugate.
D) D. The roots are purely imaginary.

✅ Answer:

C. The roots are complex and conjugate.

💡 Explanation:

To determine the nature of the roots, we calculate the discriminant of the quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a = 2, b = 4, c = 5.
The discriminant $\Delta = b^2 - 4ac$ .
Here, $\Delta = 4^2 - 4(2)(5) = 16 - 40 = -24$ .
Since the discriminant is negative, the roots are complex and conjugate.

The Emancipation Proclamation and the Gettysburg Address are two significant documents in American history. President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, during the American Civil War. It declared that all enslaved people in Confederate states were to be set free. Although it did not immediately free all enslaved individuals, it was a critical turning point in the war and paved the way for the abolition of slavery. The Gettysburg Address was delivered by Lincoln on November 19, 1863, during the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. In his brief but powerful speech, Lincoln emphasized the principles of human equality espoused by the Declaration of Independence and redefined the Civil War as a struggle not just for the Union, but as a new birth of freedom that would bring true equality to all of its citizens. Both documents continue to influence American society by shaping national ideals of freedom, equality, and democracy.

Question:

Which of the following questions are statistical questions, meaning they anticipate variability in the data? Select all that apply.

Answer Choices:

A) What is the height of the tallest building in the world?
B) How many hours do students in Grade 6 spend on homework each week?
C) What is the average temperature in New York City in January?
D) How old is the oldest living person?
E) How many languages are spoken by students in a school?
F) What is the result of 8 multiplied by 7?

✅ Answer:

How many hours do students in Grade 6 spend on homework each week?, What is the average temperature in New York City in January?, How many languages are spoken by students in a school?

💡 Explanation:

Statistical questions anticipate variability in the data and typically involve collecting data that has variability.
Asking about the height of the tallest building or the age of the oldest living person does not involve variability in the same way, as they seek fixed values.
Questions about average temperature, time spent on homework, and languages spoken involve data that can vary across different individuals or situations.

Question:

A group of students conducted an experiment to investigate how different forces affect the motion of a toy car. They used cars with varying masses and applied different forces to each car. Which of the following observations would support the conclusion that the change in an object's motion depends on the sum of the forces and the mass of the object? Select ALL that apply.

Answer Choices:

A) A. When a larger force was applied to the heavier car, the car accelerated more than when a smaller force was applied.
B) B. When the same force was applied to two cars of different masses, the car with the smaller mass accelerated more.
C) C. When no force was applied, the cars remained stationary regardless of their mass.
D) D. The car with the largest mass required the least amount of force to begin moving.
E) E. Applying the same force to two identical cars, one on a smooth surface and one on a rough surface, resulted in the car on the smooth surface accelerating more.

✅ Answer:

A, B, C

💡 Explanation:

The change in an object's motion is influenced by both the magnitude of the force applied and the mass of the object.
Observation A supports this by showing that a larger force causes greater acceleration.
Observation B supports this by demonstrating that with the same force, a smaller mass results in greater acceleration.
Observation C highlights that without force, motion does not change regardless of mass.
Observation D is incorrect because more mass generally requires more force to achieve the same acceleration.
Observation E, while true, focuses more on friction than on the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.

Question:

Consider the function f(x) = -2(x - 1)^2 + 3. Which of the following statements best describes the key features of the graph of the function?

Answer Choices:

A) A) The graph is a parabola that opens upwards with vertex at (1, 3), and it intersects the y-axis at (0, -1).
B) B) The graph is a parabola that opens downwards with vertex at (1, 3), and it intersects the y-axis at (0, 1).
C) C) The graph is a parabola that opens downwards with vertex at (1, 3), and it intersects the y-axis at (0, 1).
D) D) The graph is a parabola that opens upwards with vertex at (1, 3), and it intersects the y-axis at (0, -1).

✅ Answer:

💡 Explanation:

The function f(x) = -2(x - 1)^2 + 3 is a quadratic function in vertex form, where (h, k) = (1, 3) is the vertex.
The negative coefficient of the squared term (-2) indicates that the parabola opens downwards.
To find the y-intercept, substitute x = 0 into the function: f(0) = -2(0 - 1)^2 + 3 = -2(1) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1.
Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 1).
