Mathematics
1 answer:
Marat540 [252]2 years ago

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.

The garden outside Ms.Mertz's class needs 5 liters of water a week. Jacob poured 326 millimeters of water on the garden on Monda
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Enough water has been poured .

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden needed water in a week = 5 liters

Jacob poured water on Monday = 326 ml = ( 326/ 1000) liters = 0.326 liters.

SEAN poured water on Tuesday = 1.5 liters

Gavin poured water on Wednesday = 2312 ml = ( 2312/ 1000) = 2.312 liters.

Stephen poured water on Thursday = 894 ml = ( 894/ 1000)  = 0.894 liters

The total amount of water poured by all these people = 0.326 + 1.5 +2.312 +0. 894 = 5.032 liters

Here we can see that water has been poured is more than the water required  in a week.

Given a term in an arithmetic sequence and the common difference, find the first five terms
andriy [413]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first five terms

we come with a1

a(n) = a1 +(n-1)d

a(17) = a1 +(17-1)6=71

 So a1=71-96= <u>-25  </u>

first five terms:

a1= -25

a(2) = -25 +(2-1)6=<u>-19</u>

a(3) = -25 +(3-1)6=<u>-13</u>

a(4) = -25 +(4-1)6=<u>-7</u>

a(5) = -25 +(5-1)6=<u>-1</u>

<u>hope it helps</u>
