2xsquered minus 8x minus 24

Mathematics
1 answer:
OlgaM077 [116]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 6 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x^2 - 8 x - 24 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with three terms:

2 (x - 6) (x + 2) = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

(x - 6) (x + 2) = 0

Split into two equations:

x - 6 = 0 or x + 2 = 0

Add 6 to both sides:

x = 6 or x + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides:

Answer: x = 6 or x = -2

Which triangles are similar?
likoan [24]

Answer:

option B) ΔABE ∼ ΔADC

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then its corresponding sides are proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

Triangles ABE and ADC are similar by AA Similarity Theorem

because

m∠ ABE≅m∠ADC

m∠ BAE≅m∠DAC

The corresponding sides are

AB and AD

BE and DC

AE and AC

so

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{BE}{DC}=\frac{AE}{AC}

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

£70

Step-by-step explanation:

There are ten people and each person pays £56 so the total cost will be 10x£56 = £560

The boat will be hired out for the same price (£560) and there are eight people this time, so £560 divided by 8 = £70. This means each person will pay £70.

A number is being written in scientific notation. The student moves the decimal point to the left 3 places and _____.
ELEN [110]
If you are moving the decimal point to the left, the exponent is negative. If you move it to the right, the exponent is positive.
There is only one negative exponent here, and it is the first option. 
So:
A number is being written in scientific notation. The student moves the decimal point to the left 3 places and A<span>. multiplies by 10^-3.</span>

What is the value of x?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

x = 23 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

sin theta = opposite side/ hypotenuse

sin x= 9/23

Take the arcsin of each side

arcsin( sinx) = arcsin (9/23)

x = arcsin (9/23)

x=23.03568411

Rounding to the nearest degree

x = 23 degrees
