Answer:

$(x + y)^{2} = 1\\xy = -4\\x^{2} + y^{2} \\= x^{2} + 2xy + y^{2} - 2xy \\= (x^{2} + 2xy + y^{2}) - 2xy\\= (x+y)^{2} - 2xy\\= 1 - 2 *(-4) \\= 9$

Hope this helps!

Why is ac smaller than ad if they both look very close

kakasveta [241]

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

$\begin{gathered} MK=21;AC=\text{?} \\ MR=24;AD=28\frac{4}{5} \\ KR=CD=\text{?} \end{gathered}$

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~

$\begin{gathered} \Delta MKR\approx\Delta ACD \\ \frac{MK}{AC}=\frac{MR}{AD} \\ \frac{21}{AC}=\frac{24}{28\frac{4}{5}} \\ \text{Cross multiply, we have:} \\ 24\cdot AC=28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21 \\ AC=\frac{28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21}{24}=25\frac{1}{5} \\ AC=25\frac{1}{5} \end{gathered}$

if the current batch of pills is the first of the day and your goal is to produce a total of 600 what percentage of your goal wi

Zanzabum

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is: There are 75 pills in the batch.

The current batch of pills is the first of the day and our goal is to produce a total of 600.

If there are 75 pills in the batch so percentage of goal completed will be

[(number of pills in the batch)/(Total pills)] * 100

$\frac{75}{600}*100 = 12.5 \%$

≈ 13% to the nearest whole number

Which Two Numbers Add Up To Negative 26 And Multiply To 11?

Fynjy0 [20]

Xy=11
x+y=-26

x+y=-26
minus x both sides
y=-26-x

sub for y
x(-26-x)=11
-26x-x^2=11
add 26x+x^2 both sides
x^2+26x+11=0

ax^2+bx+c=0
x= $\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

a=1
b=26
c=11

x= $\frac{-26+/-\sqrt{26^{2}-4(1)(11)} }{2(1)}$
x= $\frac{-26+/-\sqrt{676-44} }{2}$
x= $\frac{-26+/-\sqrt{632} }{2}$
x= $\frac{-26+/-2\sqrt{158} }{2}$
x= $-13+/-\sqrt{158}$

x= $-13+\sqrt{158}$ or $-13-\sqrt{158}$

aprox

x=-0.420195 or -25.5698

those are the numbers
