X^2 - x - 90 =0
This equation is in standard form ax^2+ bx + c
The sum of the solutions is -b/a (a and b are the coefficients from the equation above, not the solutions to the equation)
The answer is 1/1 = 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, let get started.

The given equation is : x^2-1x-90=0

This is a quadratic equation.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is : AX^2+BX+C=0

Comparing the given equation with standard one, the values of A ,B and C are :

A is 1

B is -1

C is -90

Since a and b are the roots of the equation, so the formula for sum of roots a+b will be = \frac{-B}{A}

a+b=-\frac{-1}{1} =1

hence a+b will be 1   :   Answer

Hope it will help :)

Answer:

$540.98

Step-by-step explanation:

future value= $ 50,000

number of deposits (n)= 8*12 = 96

rate (r) = 4% per month

= 4÷12 per annum

= 0.33% p.a

i = 0.33÷100

= 0.0033

We know,

Future value of annuity = P÷i [ (1 + i)^n - 1 ]

$50,000 = P÷ 0.0033 [ ( 1+0.0033)^96 - 1]

$50,000 * 0.0033=P [ (1.0033)^96 - 1 ]

$165 = P*0.305

P = $165÷0.305

P = $ 540.98

Rough::

let x= 1.0033)^96

log x = 96 * log (1.0033)

log x = 0.1156

x = Antilog (0.1156)

= 1.305

1.305 - 1 = 0.305

Solve the equation x^2=26
Volgvan

Take the square root. The opposite of squaring something is taking the root :)

√x^2 = √26

x = √26

x = 5.099...

OR leave it if your teacher doesn't want a decimal since it can't be simplified anymore

A builder makes drainpipes that drop 1cm over a horizontal distance of 30cm to prevent clogs. A certain drainpipe needs to cover
Ann [662]

Answer:

700.39cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a horizontal distance of 30cm, the drop is 1cm, now we need to get the drop for horizontal distance of 700 cm to maintain the same slope

Using the concept of cross multiplication

30cm=1 cm drop

700 cm=x

30x=700

X=700/30=70/3=23 ⅓

Utilizing pythagoras theorem, the length of pipe will be

L=√(23⅓)²+700²

L=700.38878092417 cm

Rounded off, the length is approximately 700.39 cm
