Answer:

negative 5 plus or minus the square root of 17 divided by two: x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{17}}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation

x^2+5x=-2

x^2+5x+2=0.

To solve it, we are going to use the general formula. This formula is used to find the solutions of quadratic equations.

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

where a is the coefficient of x^2, in this case a=1, b is the coefficient of x, in this case b=5 and c is the independent term, in this case c=2.

x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{5^2-4(1)(2)}}{2(1)}

x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{25-8}}{2}

x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{17}}{2}.

X^2 + 5x = -2
x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0

x = -b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
a = 1, b = 5, and c = 2

x = -5 (+-) sqrt (5^2 - 4(1)(2)) / 2(1)
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (25 - 8) / 2
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (17) / 2

answer is : negative 5 plus or minus the square root of 17 divided by 2

The diameter of a sphere is 6ft 6in. Find the radius
storchak [24]

<u>Answer: </u>

The diameter of a sphere is 6ft 6in. The radius of sphere is 3 feet 3 inches.

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that the diameter of sphere is 6 feet 6 inches.  

We have to find the radius of the sphere.

The relation between diameter and radius of sphere is given as  

\text { diameter }=2 \times \text {radius}

Therefore, radius=\frac{\text {diameter}}{2}

radius=\frac{6 \text { feet } 6 \text { inches }}{2}

Radius = 3 feet 3 inches.

Hence the radius of the sphere is 3 feet 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

l =5ft

b=2ft

h=3ft

volume(v) = l \times b \times h

v = (l*b*h)

v = (5*2*3)ft

v = (30)ft

.•. v = 30ft

What will be the cost for 8 hours of work? 10 hours of work?​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

<u>Cost = 25 + 50h</u>

cost for 8 hours of work = $425

cost for 10 hours of work = $525

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following:

A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour of service write an equation to represent the cost of hiring this plumber​.

what will be the cost for 8 hours of work? 10 hours of work?​

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

A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour

<u>Cost = 25 + 50h</u>

Where h is the number of hours of service

8 hours of work: h = 8

Substitute with h = 8 at the equation of cost

<u>Cost = 25 + 50* 8 = $425</u>

10 hours of work: h = 10

Substitute with h = 10 at the equation of cost

<u>Cost = 25 + 50 * 10  = $525</u>
