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!

ALGEBRA 1 HELP URGENT!!
butalik [34]
Here, Sequence : -2, -6, -18, -54
Common Ratio = a₂/a₁ = -6/-2 = 3
As the expression is in negative sign, it's sequence will be -3ˣ
Where x = number of terms in the sequence [ By this rule, you can calculate the unknown nth number]

In short, Option C is your answer!!!!

Let me know, if you have some doubt.
