Answer:

x = i and x = i\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x^{4} + 6x² + 5 = 0

Using the substitution u = x², then

u² + 6u + 5 = 0 ← in standard form

(u + 1)(u + 5) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 1 = 0 ⇒ u = - 1

u + 5 = 0 ⇒ u = - 5

Convert solutions back into terms of x

x² = - 1 ⇒ x = \sqrt{-1} = i

x² = - 5 ⇒ x = \sqrt{-5} = i\sqrt{5}

This is just another way of asking "what is the volume of a sphere of 6cm"
The volume of a sphere is V= \frac{3}{4} \pi  R^{3}
The R is 3cm in this problem since the diameter is twice the radius. For a 3cm radius sphere this is 113.1cm^3

Find the surface area. round to the nearest hundredth when necessary.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The surface area of the cuboid is 648 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have here is cuboidal in outlook

By using the formula for the surface area of a cuboid, we can get the surface area of the shape

mathematically, we have the surface area of a cuboid as follows;

2(lb + lh + bh)

where l is the length, b is the breadth (width) and h is the height

We can have the length as 9 m, the width as 9 m and the height as 13.5 m

Substituting these values, we have the surface area of the cuboid as;

A = 2(9(9) + 9(13.5) + 9(13.5))

A = 2(81 + 243)

A= 2(324)

A = 648 m^2
