Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the quadratic formula to get the answer to this

Quadratic Formula: -b +- √b² - 4ac/2a

Once we input A, B, and C into this, and solve any multiplication, we get

x = -1 +- √1 + 20/2

We divide by 2a, which 2a = 2.

-0.5 +- 10.5.

these are the following values of x:

x = 10

x = 11

Pretty sure this is it, hope it helps!

What is the distance between the points 1 - 6 + -5 2

Nata [24]

(1, -6) and (-5, 2)

Distance between 1 and -5 = 6
Distance between -6 and 2 = 8

6²+8²=x² (PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM)
36+64=x²
x² = 100
x = 10

Note: Not -10 because distance cannot be negative.

What is the surface area of the ice cream

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$13194.7\ mm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of a cone is given by:

Surface area = $\pi r(r+\sqrt{h^2+r^2} )$

where r is the radius of the cone, h is the height of the cone, l is the length of the cone = $\sqrt{h^2+r^2}$

Given that h = 136 mm, r = 60 mm /2 = 30 mm, l = 140 mm. Also the top of the cone is not included in the surface area, hence the surface area becomes:

$Surface \ area=\pi r(\sqrt{h^2+r^2} )=\pi rl\\\\Surface \ area=\pi (30\ mm)(140\ mm)=13194.7\ mm^2$
