To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                                        x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                                        x = [ -8 ± √((8)^2 - 4(3)(2)) ] / ( 2(3) )
                                        x = [-8 ± √(64 - (24) ) ] / ( 6 )
                                        x = [-8 ± √(40) ] / ( 6)
                                        x = [-8 ± 2*sqrt(10) ] / ( 6 )
                                        x = -4/3 ± sqrt(10)/3
The answers are -4/3 + sqrt(10)/3 and -4/3 - sqrt(10)/3.

Pretty Pavers company is installing a driveway. Below is a diagram of the driveway they are
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The most correct option is;

(B) 958.2 ft.²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the dimension of each square = 3 ft.²

Therefore, the length of the sides of the square = √3 ft.

Based on the above dimensions, the dimension of the small semicircle is found by counting the number of square sides ti subtends as follows;

The dimension of the diameter of the small semicircle = 10·√3

Radius of the small semicircle = Diameter/2 = 10·√3/2 = 5·√3

Area of the small semicircle = (π·r²)/2 = (π×(5·√3)²)/2 = 117.81 ft.²

Similarly;

The dimension of the diameter of the large semicircle = 10·√3 + 2 × 6 × √3

∴ The dimension of the diameter of the large semicircle = 22·√3

Radius of the large semicircle = Diameter/2 = 22·√3/2 = 11·√3

Area of the large semicircle = (π·r²)/2 = (π×(11·√3)²)/2 = 570.2 ft.²

Area of rectangle = 11·√3 × 17·√3 = 561

Area, A of large semicircle cutting into the rectangle is found as follows;

A_{(segment \, of \, semicircle)} = \frac{1}{4} \times (\theta - sin\theta) \times r^2

Where:

\theta = 2\times tan^{-1}( \frac{The \, number \, of  \, vertical  \, squrare  \, sides  \ cut  \,  by  \  the  \  large  \,  semicircle}{The \, number \, of  \, horizontal \, squrare  \, sides  \ cut  \,  by  \  the  \  large  \,  semicircle} )

\therefore \theta = 2\times tan^{-1}( \frac{10\cdot \sqrt{3} }{5\cdot \sqrt{3}} ) = 2.214

Hence;

A_{(segment \, of \, semicircle)} = \frac{1}{4} \times (2.214 - sin2.214) \times (11\cdot\sqrt{3} )^2 = 128.3 \, ft^2

Therefore; t

The area covered by the pavers = 561 - 128.3 + 570.2 - 117.81 = 885.19 ft²

Therefor, the most correct option is (B) 958.2 ft.².

What are the real zeros of f(x) = x^3 +2x^2-5x-6
netineya [11]

First of all Horner
First we try with -3
1. 2. -5. -6.
-3. 3. 6
1. -1. -2. 0
To verify: -3^3+2*-3^2+15-6=0

Now we have this equation
(X+3)*(x^2 - x -2)=0

I dont know If you know sum and product but that is the easiest way so sum= 1 product = 2 so 2 and -1 are the answers.
You can do this too by this way : b^2-4ac= D
X= (-b(+or-)d^1/2)/2a

So all the zeros
2, -1 and -3
