I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2

x = -8, 3/2</span>

1. Martin can pour a concrete walkway in 6 hours working alone. Victor has
Bond [772]

Answer:

2.4 hr. = time working together

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = time working together

x/6 = work done by Martin

x/4 = work done by Victor

Martin's part + Victor's part = 1 jog done

x/6 + x/4 = 1  Multiply thru by 12

2x + 3x = 12

5x = 12

x = 2.4 hr.

Is sin theta=5/6, what are the values of cos theta and tan theta?
mina [271]

let's bear in mind that sin(θ) in this case is positive, that happens only in the I and II Quadrants, where the cosine/adjacent are positive and negative respectively.

\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}}\qquad \impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{6^2-5^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{36-25}\implies \pm \sqrt{11}=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}} \\\\\\ tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{and rationalizing the denominator}~\hfill }{tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{11}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{11}}\implies tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5\sqrt{11}}{11}}

Which value of c makes the ratios equal? *
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Option 4

The answer is 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6 = 9/c

5c = 9 × 6

5c = 54

5c/5 = 54/5

c = 10.8

Thus, The value of c is 10.8

<h3><u>For </u><u>Verification</u>;</h3>

5/6 = 9/c

5/6 = 9/10.8

0.833 = 0.833

Hence, L.H.S = R.H.S
