Answer:

x2-5x-8=0  

Step-by-step explanation:

Two solutions were found :

x =(5-√57)/2=-1.275

x =(5+√57)/2= 6.275

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "x2"   was replaced by   "x^2".  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

1.1     Factoring  x2-5x-8  

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -5x  its coefficient is  -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -8  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -5 .

    -8 + 1 = -7  

    -4+  2 = -2  

    -2+  4 = 2  

    -1 +   8 = 7

select the correct answer. and the figure, angle k measures 45°. what is the measurement of angle c? 38° 45° 90° 98°.
LuckyWell [14K]

From the figure, we can conclude that the little triangle is an isosceles triangle, the greatest angle is 90 because ∠A = 90 and they are supplementary, therefore, using the triangle sum theorem:

\begin{gathered} m\angle J=m\angle K \\ m\angle K+m\angle K+90=180 \\ 2m\angle K=180-90 \\ 2m\angle K=90 \\ m\angle K=\frac{90}{2} \\ m\angle K=45 \end{gathered}

Uni made a model of a 1970 Ford Mustang using a scale of .5 inches = 9 in. If the actual car is 15 ft long, how long is the mode
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

The model car is 10 inches long

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we use conversion of units

Feet to inches.

Each feet has 12 inches.

The car is 15ft long.

So the car has 15*12 = 180 inches.

.5 inches = 9 in.

Rule of three

.5 inches - 9 inches

x inches - 180 inches

9x = 180*0.5

9x = 90

x = \frac{90}{9}

x = 10

The model car is 10 inches long

Aleonysh [2.5K]

The mathematical sentence can be written as:

x^3 = y^5

<h3>How to write the expression?</h3>

A number a to the power of n is written as:

a^n

"x to the power of 3 is equal to y to the power of 5"

Would be written as:

x^3 = y^5

Particularly, this does not appear in the given options, but this is the correct and simplest way of writing the given mathematical sentence.
