5x^2 - 125 = 0
5x^2 = 125
x^2 = 125/5
x^2 = 25
x = 5, -5

hope this help

Remember
a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)

first factor out 5
5(x^2-25)=0
or
5(x^2-5^2)=0
5(x-5)(x+5)=0
set to zero
x-5=0
x=5
x+5=0
x=-5

x=-5 and 5

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In 8 hours 30m Corner earns $80.75

In how many hours Zoey earns $118.75

Hours Zoey works= 510*118.75/80.75(converted 8hours into minutes by multiplying with 60)

Solving we get 12 hours 30m.

What is the coordinates of the center of an ellipse defined by the equation 16x^2 + 25y^2 + 160x - 200y + 400 = 0 ? Please give
pickupchik [31]

16x^2 + 25y^2 + 160x - 200y + 400 = 0     Rearrange and regroup.

(16x^2 + 160x) + (25y^2 - 200y ) = 0-400.     Group the xs together and the ys together.

16(X^2 + 10x) + 25(y^2-8y) = -400.     Factorising.

We are going to use completing the square method.

Coefficient of x in the first expression = 10.

Half of it = 1/2 * 10 = 5. (Note this value)

Square it = 5^2  = 25.     (Note this value)


Coefficient of y in the second expression = -8.

Half of it = 1/2 * -8 = -4. (Note this value)

Square it = (-4)^2  = 16. (Note this value)


We are going to carry out a manipulation of completing the square with the values

25 and 16.  By adding and substracting it.


16(X^2 + 10x) + 25(y^2-8y) = -400

16(X^2 + 10x + 25 -25) + 25(y^2-8y + 16 -16) = -400

Note that +25 - 25 = 0.    +16 -16 = 0. So the equation is not altered.

16(X^2 + 10x + 25) -16(25) + 25(y^2-8y + 16) -25(16) = -400


16(X^2 + 10x + 25) + 25(y^2-8y + 16)  = -400 +16(25) + 25(16)    Transferring the terms -16(25) and -25(16)

to other side of equation.  And 16*25 = 400


16(X^2 + 10x + 25) + 25(y^2-8y + 16)  = 25(16)


16(X^2 + 10x + 25) + 25(y^2-8y + 16)  = 400

We now complete the square by using the value when coefficient was halved.


16(x-5)^2 + 25(y-4)^2  = 400

Divide both sides of the equation by 400


(16(x-5)^2)/400 + (25(y-4)^2)/400  = 400/400              Note also that, 16*25 = 400.


((x-5)^2)/25 + ((y-4)^2)/16  = 1

((x-5)^2)/(5^2) + ((y-4)^2)/(4^2)  = 1


Comparing to the general format of an ellipse.

((x-h)^2)/(a^2) + ((y-k)^2)/(b^2)  = 1


Coordinates of the center = (h,k).

Comparing   with above   (x-5) = (x - h) , h = 5.

Comparing   with above   (y-k) = (y - k) , k = 4.

Therefore center = (h,k) = (5,4).

Sorry the answer came a little late.  Cheers.
