Answer:

x ∈ [-2, 7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation ...

x^2 -5x -4 ≤ 10

can be rewritten as ...

x^2 -5x -14 ≤ 0

and factored as ...

(x +2)(x -7) ≤ 0

Clearly, the "or equal to" condition will be met when x=-2 and x=7. For values of x between these numbers, one factor is negative and the other is positive. Hence the product will be negative. So, numbers in that interval are the solution set.

x ∈ [-2, 7]

Find the area of sector AOB. Express your answer in terms of pi and rounded to the nearest tenth.

STatiana [176]

63 $\pi$

The sector is $\frac{70}{360}$ ; there are 360 degrees in a circle.
You use the formula $\pi r^{2}$ .
18cm is the radius, and then you square it to get 324.
Multiply 324 by $\frac{70}{360}$
You get 63 $\pi$

Whats 0 divide 0 i really want to know

Gelneren [198K]

Answer

N/A

Step-by-step explanation:

lets take a step into our imaginations, ok?

So when you divide, you're basically splitting the numerator into as many parts as the denominator.

imagine you have a chocolate bar, and it has 6 pieces and you want to split it evenly between your 3 friends.

you split it into three equal parts to get 2 pieces per person.

When you divide 0 by 0, your splitting 0 chocolate bars into 0 equal portions, which is why this problem isn't solvable.
