EXPLANATION

A sports psychologist is a specific psychologist that specializes in the influence of psychology on physical activity, exercise, sports, and athletic performance. Sports psychologists try to increase the motivation and performance of an athlete. Therefore, there are a lot of sports psychologists who work with coaches and athletes.

Some sport psychologists will work to help normal people with their lifestyle. Sports psychologists can utilize sports to make people’s lives healthier. Therefore, not all sports psychologists work with athletes, but some also work with normal people. Sports psychologists do not only care for a person’s goal of being healthier but also will help a person’s well-being to increase.

The sports psychologist will help athletes and coaches to cope with the pressure before a competition. As an athlete, you will feel the tension, fear, and pressure before a competition. Sports psychologists will help the athletes to cope with the tension and overcome the athlete’s problems in lacking motivation and focus.

Sports psychologists who work with regular people will help people to enjoy sports. People will slowly make exercising their habit, so they will have a healthier lifestyle. Regular people will be helped to focus on their specific workout program.  

Therefore, the answer is D because a sport psychologist will help to maintain motivation, increase performance, and manage fear, but a sport psychologist does not enhance memory.

x = 7

step-by-step explanation:

equating the expression for area to the given area

2x² - 7x - 4 = 45 ( subtract 45 from both sides )

2x² - 7x - 49 = 0 ← in standard form

to factor consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × - 49 = - 98 and sum = - 7

the factors are - 14 and + 7

use these factors to split the middle term

2x² - 14x + 7x - 49 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x - 7) + 7(x - 7) = 0 ← factor out (x - 7)

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

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

2x + 7 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 7 ⇒ x = -

thus the positive value for x is x = 7
