Use the quadratic formula to solve x2 + 7x + 8 = 0. Estimate irrational solutions to the nearest tenth.

1 answer:

6 0

x2 + 7x + 8
a = 1
b = 7
c = 8
x = [-b +-sq root (b^2 -4ac)] / 2a
x = [-7 +- sq root (49 -4*1*8)] / 2*1
x = [-7 +- sq root (49 -32)] / 2
x = [-7 +sq root (17)] / 2

x1 = [-7 +sq root (17)] / 2
x2 = [-7 -sq root (17)] / 2

x1 = -1.4384
x2 = -5.5616

If y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4

alexira [117]

Answer:

$y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4$

$y'=[\frac{d}{dx}(x^2-4)^5](3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5[\frac{d}{dx}(3x+4)^4]$

$y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5(12(3x+4)^3)$

$y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+12(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^3$

$y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)$
