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!

26. The first half of a play is 35 minutes longer than the second half of the play. If
slava [35]
155-35= 120 (you subtract 35 so you get the number if both plays lasted the same time )
120/2= 60 (you get the amount of time one play lasted without extra 35 minutes)
60+35=95 (then add 35 minutes to one play because 1 one is longer than the other one)

the first half of the play is 95 minutes long.

The price of a 7-minute phone call is $1.75. What is the price of a 13 minute phone call?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:$3.25

PLEASE!!! HELP!!! Question: If you have points on a graph that plot (1,7), (2,8), (3,5) and (4,6) what would be the slope?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

You only need two points to find the slope.

Let's use (1,7) and (2,8).

The formula for slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Let's plug the values in:

(8-7)/(2-1) = 1.

So, the slope is 1.
