Ok first of all, I EXTREMELY appreciate your use of parenthesis. Ok so first just raise both sides to the power of 1/2.

You'll see why I didn't include a negative. Then apply the log base 3/8 and you get

Then you split the log up and you get

You couldn't put a negative value for a log. That is why I excluded the negative part of the sqrt.
Answer:
(x-5)(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the highest power of x is 2, u can assume the equation to be (x +/- A) (x +/- B), whereby A and B are unknowns.
Since the coefficient of X^2 is 1, and the number in the equation is - 5, the only possible values for A and B to get - 5 is either - 5 and 1 or 1 and - 5.
Since coefficient of x is - 4 and number in equation is - 5, imagine inserting those numbers in the equation and cross multiplying back. You would realise that the answer should be as listed above.
42 because you have to multiply the reciprocal
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
For C the y axis changes, add 5 to -3 and you get 2. Therefore 5 units away!
Hope this helps, good luck! :)
Answer:
5.20 to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
The altitude line bisects the base of the triangle to form 2 right angled triangles with hypotenuse = 6 and the base = 3.
So, by the Pythagoras theorem the altitude is calculated as follows:
6^2 = 3^2 + x^2
x^2 = 36 - 9 = 27
x = √27
= 5.20 to the nearest hundredth.
