Answer:
-7.
Step-by-step explanation:
At the point -4 the graph just touches the x axis ( as its an even power) but at x = -7 it crosses the x axis ( because of the odd power 5).
The graph rises from the left and pass through the x axis at (-7,0).
Answer:
1. if you are solving using the quadratic formula. the answer is in the first picture.
2. if you are looking to completing the square the answer is in the second picture.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
When a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle.
Then the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant and the square of the measure of the tangent are equal, hence
x(x + 5) = 6²
x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 4
Answer:
x ≈ 8.3 ( to the nearest tenth )
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle
cos41° = 
= 
= 
Multiply both sides by 11
11 × cos41° = x, thus
x ≈ 8.3
