Give the positive solution of x^2 – 36 = 5x.

1 answer:

5 0

The equation given in the question is

x^2 - 36 = 5x
x^2 - 5x - 36 = 0
x^2 - 9x + 4x - 36 = 0
x(x - 9) + 4(x - 9) = 0
(x - 9) (x + 4) = 0
From the above set we can say that x = 9 is the positive solution of the equation given in the question. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has come to your great help.

$\frac{y\ miles}{x\ minutes}=\frac{4\ miles}{28\ minutes}\ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\28y=4x\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 28\\\\\boxed{y=\frac{4}{28}x\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{7}x}$

Find the area of this parallelogram?

Jet001 [13]

So, the area of a parallelogram is the base times the height or

$a = b \times h$

a being area

b being base

h being height

the height is 8 cm and the base is 15 cm

(remember: the heght should be perpendicular to the base)

so we plug in 8 for h and 15 for b to get

$a = 15 \times 8$

and 15 × 8 = (10 × 8) + (5 × 8) = 80 + 40 =120

So the answer is 120
