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}

HURRY!!
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

I'm sorry you got that wrong. The correct answer was R since it is staying in the same place which is called a constant line. It stays in the same place since she isn't moving, she is just standing there waiting for the cab.

Solve the Equation. 20x + 12 ≥ 14x + 30 A. x ≥ 7 B. x ≤ 7 C. x ≥ 3 D. x ≤ 3
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

x≥3

Step-by-step explanation:

Treat the ≥ symbol like it is an equals sign. First, subtract 14x from each side to get 6x+12≥30. Then, Subtract 12 from each side to get 6x≥18. I will let you solve the rest :)

Ann car can go 117 miles on 3 gallons of gas. During a drive last weekend, Ann used 8 gallons of gas. How far did she drive?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Ann drove 312 miles in 8 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance covered by Ann's car = 117 miles

Gallons of gas spent by Ann's car to cover 117 miles = 3 gallons

Unit rate = 117 miles / 3 gallons

               = 39 miles per gallon

so Ann's car can go 39 miles in one gallon of gas.

  • Given that Ann used 8 gallons of gas.

Therefore,

Distance covered by Ann's car in 8 gallons = 39 × 8

                                                                         = 312 miles

Therefore, Ann drove 312 miles in 8 gallons.
