According to Vieta's formula, if x_1,x_2 are solutions of quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0, then:

\displaystyle x_1+x_2=- \frac{b}{a}

In our case:

\displaystyle x_1+x_2=- \frac{8}{2} =-4

HEYA!!!

Quadratic equations have standard form as
{ax}^{2}  + bx + c
Trinomial is an algebraic expression consisting of 3 terms.

the x-coordinate of a point where a line, curve, or surface intersects the x-axis

Given the picture below, find x and both angles.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

x =42.5

x+8 =50.5

3x+2 =  129.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles shown are supplementary, so they add to 180

x+8   + 3x+2 = 180

Combine like terms

4x+10 = 180

Subtract 10

4x = 170

Divide by 4

x =42.5

x+8 = 42.5+8 = 50.5

3x+2 = 3*42.5 +2 = 127.5 +2 = 129.5

Please help. I don’t understand and don’t know what do to.

Answer:

  72

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are said to be similar. (ΔNPQ ~ ΔRSQ) That means corresponding sides have the same ratio:

  NP/RS = NQ/RQ = PQ/SQ = 24/32 = 21/28 = 3/4

This ratio, or scale factor, also applies to the perimeters of the two triangles.

  perimeter NPQ / perimeter RSQ = 3/4

Using the given expressions for the perimeters, we have ...

  (7x +2)/(10x -4) = 3/4

We can solve this equation in the usual way to find the value of x. Then we can use that value to find the perimeter of ΔNPQ.

  4(7x +2) = 3(10x -4) . . . . . multiply both sides by 4(10x -4)

  28x +8 = 30x -12 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  20 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . add 12-28x to both sides

  10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 10

The perimeter of ΔNPQ is ...

  7x +2 = 7(10) +2 = 72

The perimeter of triangle NPQ is 72 units.
