Answer:

Below in BOLD.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x^2 - 6x - 2 = 0

Quadratic formula for ax^2 + bx + c = 0  is

x =  [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/ 2a    

Here we have a = 5, b = -6 and c = -2

so x =  [-(-6)  ± √((-6)^2 - 4*5*-2)]/ 2*5

=  [ 6 ± √(36 + 40)] / 10

= 0.6 ±  √76 / 10

= 0.6 ±  0.8718

= 1.4718,  -0.2718

= 1.5, -0.3 to one decimal place.

x^2 + 3x = 40

x^2 + 3x - 40 = 0

We can factor this one:

(x - 5)(x + 8) = 0

x - 5 = 0 giving x = 5 and

x + 8 = 0 giving x = -8.

Answer  x = -8, 5.

what is the altitude corresponding to the side of length 8.5 CM in a parallelogram whose area is 34 CM square
Crazy boy [7]
Area = length of base × altitude
34 = 8.5 × a
34 = 8.5a
a = 34/8.5
a = 4

The altitude of the corresponding side is 4 cm

2k^2-5k-18=0 what is both of the values of k? plz help!!! 15 pts!!!
ddd [48]
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.

jk=ac and j+k=b

The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...

2k^2-5k-18=0

2k^2+4k-9k-18=0

2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0

(2k-9)(k+2)=0

so k=-2 and 9/2

k=(-2, 4.5)

Which sentence can represent the inequality 2.4 (6.2 minus x) greater-than negative 4.5?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: Choice B

Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number is more than negative four and five tenths.

======================================================

Explanation:

2.4 = 2 + 0.4

2.4 = 2 and 4/10

2.4 = 2 and 4 tenths

2.4 = two and four tenths

-------------------

Through similar reasoning,

6.2 = six and two tenths

And also,

-4.5 = negative four and five tenths

---------------------

Notice how 6.2 - x translates into "difference of six and two tenths and a number"

We then multiply that by 2.4, aka two and four tenths.

So that's how we get the phrasing "Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number"

All of this is greater than -4.5 aka negative four and five tenths.

This points us to Choice B as the final answer.
