5x^2 - 5 = -17

First add 5 to both sides:

5x^2 = -12

Now, divide by 5

x^2 = -12/5

Take the square root of both sides

x = sqrt -12/5

Because there can't be a square root of a negative number, your answer is:

x = sqrt -12/5 * i

Hope this helps!

Stacie is choosing between two careers. Working for company A, Stacie will make $45,000 the first year and will receive an addit
fomenos

The expression in company B represents that is is in arithmetic progression where first term is 42000 and common difference is 1800 . So we have to use the formula of sum of n terms which is

S=\frac{n}{2}(2a +(n-1)d)

Where a is the first term, n is the nth term, d is the common difference

On substituting there values,we will get

S =\frac{30}{2}(2*42000+(30-1)1800)

= 15(84000+52200) = 15*136200 =2043000

And for company A, it is

S= \frac{30}{2}(2*45000+(30-1)1500 ) = 15(90000+43500)=2002500

Difference between them =2043000-2002500= 40500

So the correct option is the second option .

Solve by factoring. Check your answer.
Virty [35]
To factor, you split the equation so the factors multiply to get the whole equation.
(x-2)(x+2)

Then, interpret the factors.
The zeros can be found at (2,0) and (-2,0).
x=2, x=-2
