Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : 

                     x^2-5*x-(36)=0 

Step by step solution:<span> Step 1:</span> Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

<span> 1.1 </span>    Factoring <span> x2-5x-36</span> 

The first term is, <span> <span>x2</span> </span> its coefficient is 1.
The middle term is, <span> -5x </span> its coefficient is  - 5.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -36 </span>

Step-1: Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 1</span> • -36 = -36</span> 

Step-2: Find two factors of  -36  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is - 5.

<span><span>     -36   +   1   =   -35</span><span>     -18   +   2   =   -16</span><span>     -12   +   3   =   -9</span><span>     -9   +   4   =   -5   That's it</span></span>


Step-3: Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -9  and  4 
                     <span>x2 - 9x</span> + 4x - 36

Step-4: Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
                    x • (x-9)
              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
                    4 • (x-9)
Step-5: Add up the four terms of step 4 :
                    (x+4)  •  (x-9)
             Which is the desired factorization

<span>Equation at the end of step  1  :</span> (x + 4) • (x - 9) = 0 <span>Step  2  :</span>Theory - Roots of a product :

<span> 2.1 </span>   A product of several terms equals zero.<span> 

 </span>When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.<span> 

 </span>We shall now solve each term = 0 separately<span> 

 </span>In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product<span> 

 </span>Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 2.2 </span>     Solve  :    x+4 = 0<span> 

 </span>Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :<span> 
 </span>                     x = -4 

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 2.3 </span>     Solve  :    x-9 = 0<span> 

 </span>Add  9  to both sides of the equation :<span> 
 </span>                     x = 9

Answer:

x=-9\text{ or }x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function and we are asked to find the x-intercept of our given function.

To find the x-intercepts of our given function we will equate our function formula with 0.

x^2+5x-36=0  

Now let us factor out our given quadratic equation by splitting the middle term.

x^2+9x-4x-36=0

x(x+9)-4(x+9)=0

(x+9)(x-4)=0

(x+9)=0\text{ or }(x-4)=0

x+9-9=0-9\text{ or }x-4+4=0+4

x=-9\text{ or }x=4

Therefore, the x-intercepts of our given quadratic functions are x=-9\text{ or }x=4.

PLEASE HELP ME IM STRUGGLING!!!

Answer:

The required answer is c=7\sqrt{3}

Therefore the number in green box should be 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AB = 7√2

AD = a , BD = b , DC = c , AC = d

∠B = 45°, ∠C = 30°

To Find:

c = ?

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle ABD Sine identity we have

\sin B = \dfrac{\textrm{side opposite to angle B}}{Hypotenuse}\\

Substituting the values we get

\sin 45 = \dfrac{AD}{AB}= \dfrac{a}{7\sqrt{2}}

\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}= \dfrac{a}{7\sqrt{2}}\\\\\therefore a=7

Now in Triangle ADC Tangent identity we have

\tan C = \dfrac{\textrm{side opposite to angle C}}{\textrm{side adjacent to angle C}}

Substituting the values we get

\tan 30 = \dfrac{AD}{DC}= \dfrac{a}{c}\\\\\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{7}{c}\\\\\therefore c=7\sqrt{3}

The required answer is c=7\sqrt{3}
