Answer:

x = 2 + √2

x = 2 - √2

Step-by-step explanation:

- x² + 2x + 1 = 0

x² - 2x - 1 = 0

Here,

a = <em>1</em>

b = <em>- 2</em>

c = <em>- 1</em>

Now,

Discriminant

D = b² - 4ac

= (-2)² - 4(1)(-1)

= 4 + 4

= 8

=2√2 > 0

<em><u>Real and </u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>istinct roots </u></em>

x = - b +- √b² - 4ac/2a

= - (-2) +- √ = (-2)² - 4(1)(-1)/2(1)

= 2 +- √4 + 4/2

= 2 +- √8/2

= 2 +- 2√2/2

= 2 +- √2

x = 2 + √2 or x = 2 - √2

An amateur soccer ball is priced at
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: $26

Step-by-step explanation:

   If $19.50 is 3/4, we need to find 4/4.

3/4 -> 0.75

4/4 -> 1

    We will set up a proportion and solve.

\frac{19.5}{0.75} =\frac{x}{1}

19.5 = 0.75x

26 = x

         The professional ball is $26.

Pentagon ABCDE and pentagon A″B″C″D″E″ are shown on the coordinate plane below:
erastova [34]

The transformations that are applied to pentagon ABCDE to create A"B"C"D"E" are:

1) Translation (x, y) → (x + 8, y + 2)

2) Reflection across the x-axis (x, y) → (x, -y)

So, the overall transformation given in the graph is (x, y) → {(x + 8), -(y + 2)}.

<h3>What are the transformation rules?</h3>

The transformation rules are:

  • Reflection across x-axis: (x, y) → (x, -y)
  • Reflection across y-axis: (x, y) → (-x, y)
  • Translation: (x, y) → (x + a, y + b)
  • Dilation: (x, y) → (kx, ky)

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The pentagons in the graph have vertices as

For the pentagon ABCDE: A(-4, 5), B(-6, 4), C(-5, 1), D(-2, 2), and (-2, 4)

For the pentagon A"B"C"D"E": A"(4, -7), B"(2, -6), C"(3, -3), D"(6, -4), and E"(6, -6)

Consider the vertices A(-4, 5) from the pentagon ABCDE and A"(4, -7) from the pentagon A"B"C"D"E".

Applying the Translation rule for the pentagon ABCDE:

The rule is (x, y) → (x + a, y + b)

So, the variation is

-4 + a = 4

⇒ a = 4 + 4 = 8

5 + b = 7

⇒ b = 7 - 5 = 2

So, the pentagon ABCDE is translated by (x + 8, y + 2).

Applying the Reflection rule for the translated pentagon:

The translated pentagon has vertices (x + 8, y + 2).

When applying the reflection across the x-axis,

(x + 8, y + 2) → {(x + 8), -(y + 2)}

Therefore, the complete transformation of the pentagon ABCDE to the pentagon A"B"C"D"E" is (x, y) → {(x + 8), -(y + 2)}

Verification:

A(-4, 5) → ((-4 + 8), -(5 + 2)) = (4, -7)A"

B(-6, 4) → ((-6 + 8), -(4 + 2)) = (2, -6)B"

C(-5, 1) → ((-5 + 8), -(1 + 2)) = (3, -3)C"

D(-2, 2) → ((-2 + 8), -(2 + 2)) = (6, -4)D"

E(-2, 4) → ((-2 + 8), -(4 + 2)) = (6, -6)E"

How do i solve this​
Sophie [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

You're given that ΔUVW is similar to ΔYZW.  The tricky part is identifying which sides in ΔUVW correspond to which sides in ΔYZW.

The triangles share point W, so visually rotate one triangle around W until the two triangles align.  That way, you can see that UW and ZW correspond to each other, and VW and YW correspond to each other.

Now you can find the scale:

VW / YW = 5/12

And you can write a proportion to find x:

UW / ZW = VW / YW

x / 64 = 5 / 12

x = 26 ⅔
