Answer:
x=3,5
Explanation:
x2−8x+15=0
Try to express the terms of the equation in square form.
Adding 16 both sides of the equation,
(x2−2⋅x⋅4+42)+15=16
or,(x−4)2+15−16=0
or,(x−4)2−1=0
or,(x−4)2−12=0
This is the a2−b2=(a+b)(a−b)form.
(x−4+1)(x−4−1)=0
or,(x−3)(x−5)=0
Now, equate both the terms to zero since both of them when multiplied, give zero.
Either,
x−3=0
∴x=3
Or,
x−5=0
∴x=5
Ans:x=3,5 Hope this helpsXD...!!
<span>238 square units.
The area of a parallelogram is the base multiplied by the height. You can use any of its four sides as the base, so pick the one that is easiest to deal with. Examining the parallelogram, you'll notice that line segments AB and CD are both parallel to the x axis which makes it extremely easy to calculate the height which is 12 - (-5) = 17.
The length of AB is 13 - (-1) = 14. So the area of the parallelogram is 14 * 17 = 238</span>
(length of tree's shadow)/(height of tree) = (length of person's shadow)/(person's height)
24/x = 8/5
24*5 = x*8
120 = 8x
8x = 120
8x/8 = 120/8
x = 15
The tree is 15 feet tall
The constant is "4.5 miles per hour", or whatever the actual units are.
