So focusing on x^4 + 5x^2 - 36, we will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -36x^4 and a sum of 5x^2? That would be 9x^2 and -4x^2. Replace 5x^2 with 9x^2 - 4x^2: x^4+9x^2-4x^2-36

Next, factor x^4 + 9x^2 and -4x^2 - 36 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity inside of the parentheses: x^2(x^2+9)-4(x^2+9)

Now you can rewrite this as (x^2-4)(x^2+9) , however this is not completely factored. With (x^2 - 4), we are using the difference of squares, which is a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b) . Applying that here, we have (x+2)(x-2)(x^2+9) . x^4 + 5x^2 - 36 is completely factored.

Next, focusing now on 2x^2 + 9x - 5, we will also be completing the square. What two terms have a product of -10x^2 and a sum of 9x? That would be 10x and -x. Replace 9x with 10x - x: 2x^2+10x-x-5

Next, factor 2x^2 + 10x and -x - 5 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 2x(x+5)-1(x+5)

Now you can rewrite the equation as (2x-1)(x+5) . 2x^2 + 9x - 5 is completely factored.

<h3><u>Putting it all together, your factored expression is (x+2)(x-2)(x^2+9)(2x-1)(x+5)=0</u></h3>

Solve for height using the tangent method. Show your work.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

b = 17.318    height = 23.318 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This IS very similar to the other one, Emily..... Have you tried to solve it the same way?

b =   152 tan 6.5  = 17.318 ft      (using a calculator)

    add the height of the victim's head (6 ft)

17.318 + 6 = 23.318 ft

Micah's Family ate some of the two pies that he baked. which number represents the amount of pies that is left​
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The answer is 6/8

Step-by-step explanation:

6/8 is the only logical answer because you need to have an answer that is less than one, 8/6 evens out to 1 1/3, 6/2 evens out to 3, and 8/4 evens out to 2. 6/8 is the only fraction that is less than one.
