Solve 5x2 + 13x + 6 = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ede4ka [16]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = - 2, x = - \frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5x² + 13x + 6 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 5 × 6 = 30 and sum = + 13

The factors are + 10 and + 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

5x² + 10x + 3x + 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

5x(x + 2) + 3(x + 2) = 0 ← factor out (x + 2) from each term

(x + 2)(5x + 3) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

5x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 5x = - 3 ⇒ x = - \frac{3}{5}

A new building in the shape of a square pyramid is to be constructed. The slant height will be five times the side length of the
Temka [501]

The area of the square pyramid building is the amount of space on it

The maximum base length of the building is 67.42 cm

<h3>How to determine the maximum side length?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Base = b

Slant height (l) = 5b

The lateral surface area is calculated using:

L = 2bl

So, we have:

L = 2 * b * 5b

Evaluate the product

L = 10b^2

The total surface area is calculated using:

T = L + b^2

So, we have:

T = 10b^2 + b^2

Evaluate the sum

T = 11b^2

The maximum surface area is 50,000 square feet

So, we have:

11b^2 = 50000

Divide both sides by 11

b^2 = 50000/11

Take the square root of both sides

b = 67.42

Hence, the maximum base length of the building is 67.42 cm

Which description does NOT guarantee that a trapezoid is isosceles?
babunello [35]

A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if

(1) The base angles are congruent

(2) The diagonals are congruent

(3) The opposite angles are supplementary

So the description does not guarantee that a trapezoid is isoceles for "Congruent bases".

Alina [70]

Answer:

A) 315/1005

Explanation:

Total choices: 120 + 255 + 35 + 60 + 200 + 110 + 75 + 150 = 1005

Favorable choices: 255 + 60 = 315

probability:

favorable choices/total choices

315/1005

21/67
