What are the roots of the quadratic equation x2+2x=-5

Mathematics
1 answer:
stiks02 [169]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -1 +/-2i

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation in standard form to find the roots, also known as the solutions, zeros, or x-intercepts, of the quadratic.

x² + 2x + 5 = 0

Use the quadratic formula by substituting a= 1, b = 2 and c = 5.

x = \frac{-2 +/- \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(1)(5)} }{2(1)} = \frac{-2 +/-\sqrt{4 -20 } }{2} = \frac{-2 +/-\sqrt{-16 } }{2} = \frac{-2 +/-4i }{2} = -1 +/-2i

samantha threw an apple out of a window from the tenth floor of her appartment building. the equation y = -16t^2+120 can be used
ella [17]
Answer:
time taken = 2.74 seconds

Explanation:
We are given that:
y = -16t² + 120 models the situation where:
y is the floor number
t is the time taken for the apple to hit the ground

We are also given that the floor number (y) is 10. Therefore, all we have to do is substitute with y in the above equation and solve for the time t as follows:
y = -16t² + 120
10 = -16t² + 120
120 - 10 = 16t² 
110 = 16t²
t² = 110/16
t² = 6.875
either t = 2.74 seconds ..........> accepted
or t = -2.74 seconds .........> rejected as time cannot be in negative

Hope this helps :)

The vertices of polygon ABCD are at A(1, 1), B(2, 3), C(3, 2), and D(2, 1). ABCD is reflected across the x-axis and translated 2
Lana71 [14]

-- Reflecting across the x-axis makes all the x-coordinates the negative of
what they were before the reflection.  The y-coordinates don't change.

-- Translating 2 units up makes all the y-coordinates 2 greater than
they were before the translation.  The x-coordinates don't change.

You didn't give us a list of new coordinates, so there's nothing
to match with.
