(a)

y=-5x^2+21x-3

for x = 2:

y=-5(2)^2+21(2)-3=-20+42-3=19

for x = 5

y=-5(5)^2+21(5)-3=-125+105-3=-23

(b)

The graph is:

(c)

Using the graph:

\begin{gathered} x=1.8,y=18.6 \\ x=0.548,y=7 \\ x=3.65,y=7 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} x=1.8 \\ y=-5(1.8)^2+21(1.8)-3=-16.2+37.8-3=18.6 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} y=7 \\ -5x^2+21x-3=7 \\ -5x^2+21x-10=0 \end{gathered}

Using the quadratic formula:

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ x=\frac{-21\pm\sqrt[]{21^2-4(-5)(-10)}}{2(-5)} \\ x=\frac{-21\pm\sqrt[]{241}}{-10} \\ x=0.54758 \\ or \\ x=3.6524 \end{gathered}

Simplify completely x^2+4x-45 / x^2+10x+9
S_A_V [24]

Answer: x - 5/x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This algebraic fraction

The task to be performed here is factorisation and simplification. Now going by the question,

x² + 4x - 45/x² + 10x + 9, the factorisation of

x² + 4x - 45 = x² + 9x - 5x - 45

= x(x + 9 ) - 5(x + 9 )

= ( x + 9 )(x - 5 ), don't forget this is the algebraic fraction's Numerator

The second part

x² + 10x + 9 = x² + x + 9x + 9

= x(x + 1) + 9( x + 1 )

= ( x + 9 )( x + 1 ), this is the algebraic denominator.

Now place the second expression which is the denominator under the first expression which is the numerator.

( x + 9 )( x - 5 )/( x + 9 )( x + 1 ).

You can see that, ( x + 9 )/( x + 9 ) divide each other , therefore therr then cancelled and left with

x - 5/x + 1

Need help with this question
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add up to have a sum of 90 degrees. We can create an equation and solve for x.

3x + 6x - 18 = 90

~Simplify

9x - 18 = 90

~Add 18 to both sides

9x = 108

~Divide 9 to both sides

x = 12

Best of Luck!

Solve for a: 5(a+5)-3=3(2-a)
ivann1987 [24]

Simplify:

5(a + 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)

Reorder the terms:

5(5 + a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)

(5 * 5 + a * 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)

(25 + 5a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)

Reorder the terms again:

25 + -3 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)

Combine like terms:

]25 + -3 = 22

22 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)

22 + 5a = (2 * 3 + -1a * 3)

22 + 5a = (6 + -3a)

Solve:

22 + 5a = 6 + -3a

To solve for variable 'a':

You have to move all terms containing A to the left, all other terms to the right.

Then add '3a' to each side of the equation:

22 + 5a + 3a = 6 + -3a + 3a

Combine like terms:

5a + 3a = 8a

22 + 8a = 6 + -3a + 3a

Combine like terms again:

-3a + 3a = 0

22 + 8a = 6 + 0

22 + 8a = 6

Add '-22' to each side of the equation.:

22 + -22 + 8a = 6 + -22

Combine like terms:

22 + -22 = 0

0 + 8a = 6 + -22

8a = 6 + -22

Combine like terms once more:

6 + -22 = -16

8a = -16

Divide each side by '8'.

a = -2

Simplify:

a = -2

Answer: a=-2

Hope I could help! :)
