What are the solutions of x2 +6x-6= 10?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

x = 1   ,or   x = -7

Obviously, the true answer is not in the options given.

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x - 6 = 10

The above equation can not be factorized, hence the use of Almighty Formula.

x = [-b +- √b² - 4ac] / 2a

Where a = 1, b = 6, c = -6

x = [-6 +- √6² - (4*1*-6)] / 2*1

x = [-6 +- √36 - (-24)] / 2

x = [-6 +- √36 + 24] / 2

x = [-6 +- √60] / 2

x = [-6 +- 7.75] / 2

x = [-6 + 7.75] / 2   ,or   x = [-6 - 7.75] / 2

x = 1.75/2   ,or   x = -13.75/2

x = 0.875   ,or   x = -6.875

Approximately

x = 1   ,or   x = -7

A wire is first bent into the shape of a square. Each side of the square is 9cm long. Then the wire is unbent and reshaped into
EastWind [94]

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of a square with sides of 9 cm is 36 cm so the rectangle must have the same perimeter

if the length of the rectangle is 13cm, its opposite side is also 13cm

add 13 + 13 to get 26

let 'n' = width of rectangle

perimeter = 26 + n + n

36 = 26 + 2n

2n = 10

n = 5
