(5x-1)(x+2)=8x-4
5x²+10x-x-2=8x-4
5x²+9x-2=8x-4
5x²+x+2=0
use the quadratic formula, b²-4ac=1²-4*5*2=1-40=-39, -39 cannot be square rooted, so the equation has no real solution.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-(-2))/(-5-(-5))

m=(0+2)/(-5+5)

m=2/0

y-(-2)=0

y+2=0

y=0-2

y=-2

A unit vector lies in the xy plane, at an angle of 137 degrees from the x axis, with a positive y component. What is the unit ve
Fed [463]

Answer: ( -0.731,  0.682)

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit vector is defined as a vector that points in the same direction as our vector (137 degrees from the x-axis) and has a magnitude of 1.

Knowing the angle, is really simple to do it.

First, we know that for a radius R and an angle A, the rectangular coordinates can be written as:

x = R*cos(A)

y = R*sin(A)

And if we want that the magnitude/modulus of our vector to be 1, then R = 1, and we know that A = 137°

x = 1*cos(137°) = -0.731

y = 1*sin(137°) = 0.682

Then the unit vector is: ( -0.731,  0.682)

Alona [7]
To find the total of 3/4 and 4/5 is to add them together. However, in order to add them together you need to find the least common denominator (LCD). And the LCD of both denominators would be 20, because that is the smallest number both 4 and 5 can divide into. And here is the tricky part, now you have to change the numerators. So since 3/4th's now has a denominator of 20 you have to make the 3 match the 20. So 4 times what it 20? It is 5. So now multiply 5 by three and that will give you 15/20, which can reduce to 3/4 which means that you did this correctly! Now repeat the same steps with 4/5:

4/5=4/20
20÷5=4
4•4=16
16/20    (16/20 can reduce to 4/5 which means you did this correctly.

Now to add them keep the denominators the same and only add the numerators:

15/20 + 16/20 = 31/20

Now this as a mixed number would be 1 11/20. I hope this was helpful!
