Answer:

Although the principal square root of a positive number is only one of its two square roots, the designation "the square root" is often used to refer to the principal square root. For positive x, the principal square root can also be written in exponent notation, as x1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright,Alex let say we have factored a quadratic into two binomial, for example

$(5x + 3)(6x - 4)$

If we set both of those equal to zero

$(5x + 3)(6x + 4) = 0$

We can used the zero product property in this case to find the roots of the quadratic equation.

This means that

$if \: ab = 0 \: then \: a = 0 \: and \: b = 0$

This means we set each binomal equal to zero to find it root.

$5x + 3 = 0$

$5x = - 3$

$x = - \frac{3}{5}$

$6x + 4 = 0$

$6x = - 4$

$x = - \frac{2}{3}$

So our roots are negative 3/5 and negative 2/3 using zero product property

Do anyone know the answer to this? Answers please?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can check whether the ratios form a proportion, by setting one piece of the ratios as x

Thus, we can use the equation 4/3.2=22/x.

From this, we get 4x=70.4.

Solving for x gives us 17.6.

Answer:

17.6 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of similar shapes = a : b, then

area of shapes = a ² : b²

Δ PTQ and Δ PRS are similar and so the ratio of corresponding sides are equal, that is

PT : PR = 6 : 9 = 2 : 3, thus

ratio of areas = 2² : 3² = 4 : 9

let the area of Δ PQT be x, then using proportion

$\frac{4}{x}$ = $\frac{9}{x+22}$ ( cross- multiply )

9x = 4(x + 22) ← distribute

9x = 4x + 88 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 88 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 17.6

Thus area of Δ PQT = 17.6 m²
