So for this, I will be using the quadratic formula, which is x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} , with a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, and c = constant. Using our equation, plug the numbers in their appropriate spots:

x=\frac{-10\pm \sqrt{10^2-4*1*(-2)}}{2*1}

Next, solve the exponent and the multiplications:

x=\frac{-10\pm \sqrt{100-(-8)}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{-10\pm \sqrt{100+8}}{2}

Next, solve the addition:

x=\frac{-10\pm \sqrt{108}}{2}

Next, apply the product rule of radicals here and simplify the radical:

  • Product rule of radicals: √ab = √a × √b

\sqrt{108}=\sqrt{6}\times \sqrt{18}=\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{9} \times \sqrt{2} =3\times 2\times \sqrt{3}=6\sqrt{3}\\\\x=\frac{-10\pm 6\sqrt{3}}{2}

Next, divide:

x=-5\pm 3\sqrt{3}}

*<u>The above is your exact solution. Approximates (rounded to the hundreths) are below:</u>

Next, solve the equation twice, once with the + symbol and once with the - symbol:

x=-5\pm 3\sqrt{3}}\\x=0.20, -10.20

Hi,

Let's solve the equation step-by-step.

x2+10x−2=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=10, c=-2.

x= −b±√b2−4ac  / 2a

x=  −(10)±√(10)2−4(1)(−2)  / 2(1)

x=  −10±√108  / 2

x=−5+3√3 or x=−5−3√3

Answer:

x=−5+3√3 or x=−5−3√3

Have a great day!

Answer:

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x+10)(x+17)(4x-34)

6x+10+x+17+4x-34=180

Add:- 6x+x+4x=11x

and 10+17-34=-7

So, 11x-7=180

Add 7 to both sides:-

11x=187

Divide both sides by 11:-

\frac{11x}{11}=\frac{187}{11}

x=17

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6,4) and has a slope of -2/3
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

using the given points substitute it into the equation y=mx+c

therefore

y=4

m=-2/3

X=6

c=?

so we should c=intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c

4=-2/3(6)+c

4=-4+c

c=4+4=8

therefore equation of the graph is y=-2/3X+8
