Step-by-step explanation:

<em>x² - x - 20 = 0</em>

<em>x²</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>5</em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em> </em>

<em>x²</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4x </em><em>-</em><em>2</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>x </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>(</em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>x+</em><em> </em><em>4)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>Either</em><em>. </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em>

<em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>x </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>5</em>

<em>Or, </em>

<em>x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em> </em>

<em>x </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em>

Why are there 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard
kobusy [5.1K]

One cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet because one yard is equal to 3 feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, there 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard

Yard and feet are units of distance

1 Yard (yd) is equal to 3 feet (ft). To convert yards to feet, multiply the yard value by 3.

<em><u>The conversion factor for 1 yard to 1 feet is given as:</u></em>

1 \text{ yard } = 3 \text{ foot }

Now find for 1 cubic yard . Cubic yard means yard raised to power 3

Therefore,

1\ yard^3 = (3)^3\ feet^3\\\\1\ yard^3 = 27 feet^3\\\\1\ cubic\ yard = 27\ cubic\ feet

Thus one cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet

Therefore, there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic feet
