Answer:

There are 2 solutions for the equation -x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0 i.e x=1 and x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the number of solutions of the given equation -x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0 by solving the equation using factors method to solve the quadratic equation.

-x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0\\Taking\,\, - sign\,\, common\\x^2 - 5x + 4 = 0\\making\,\, factors\,\, of\,\, 4x^2\\x^2 -4x -x +4 = 0\\x(x -4) -1 (x - 4) = 0\\(x-1)(x-4)=0\\x-1 = 0 \,\, and \,\, x-4 =0\\x = 1 \,\,and\,\, x = 4\\

The values of x are:

x=1 and x=4

So, there are 2 solutions for the given equation -x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0

What is the length of BC¯¯¯¯¯ ? segment B C with point D between B and C. congruency markings at segment BD and at segement D C.
Arturiano [62]

Answer: segment BC = 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given information, we have

B, C and D are three points such that

segment BC = segment BD + segment DC          ... (i)

And segment BD = segment DC                        ... (ii)

If segment BD = 18 units

Then, segment DC = 18 units   [From (ii)]

segment BC = 18 units +  18 units                [From (i)]

⇒segment BC = 36 units

Hence, length of \overline{BC} = 36 units

Simplify: 30 - 23 × 3
gogolik [260]
The answer to this question would be 39..here is why:

First you multiply 23 x 3..because multiplication or division always comes before addition or subtraction.

Second, you get the product from 23 x 3 which is 69..and you subtract 30 from that.

Last, after you do that you get an over all answer of 39..
