Answer:

The final answers are x = 10.385 OR x = -0.385  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation is x^2 -4 = 10x

Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 -10x -4 = 0.

a = 1, b = -10, c = -4.

Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)

x = ( 10 ± √(100 -4*1*-4) ) / (2*1)

x = ( 10 ± √(100 +16) ) / (2)

x = ( 10 ± √(116) ) / (2)

x = ( 10 ± 10.77 ) / (2)

x = ( 10 + 10.77 ) / (2) OR x = ( 10 - 10.77 ) / (2)

x = 20.77/2 OR x = -0.77/2

x = 10.385 OR x = -0.385

Hence, final answers are x = 10.385 OR x = -0.385

Answer:

x=10.385 or x= -.385

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

x²-4=10x

We have to find the value of x.

x²-4=10x

Adding -10x to both sides of above equation,we get

x²-4-10x=10x-10x

x²-10x-4=0           eq(1)

ax²+bx+c=0 is general form of quadratic equation.

x= (-b±√b²-4ac) / 2a is quadratic formula to find the value of x.

Comparing eq(1) with general quadratic equation,we get

a=1   b=-10 and c=-4

Putting above values in quadratic formula,we get

x=(-(-10)±√(-10)²-4(1)(-4)) / 2(1)

x=(10±√100+16) / 2

x=(10±√116) / 2

x=(10±10.77) / 2

x= 10+10.77 / 2 or x= 10-10.77 / 2

x=20.77 / 2 or x=-.77 / 2

x=10.385 or x= -.385 is solution of given equation.

In a game of chance, the probability of winning a $50 is 40% and the probability of losing a $50 prize is 60%. what is the expec
melamori03 [73]
To calculate expected value,
We can add up the probability of all possible events.
The 2 possible events are either winning $50 or losing the prize, which is $ - 50
Expected value =
50 x 40 % + (-50) x 60%
= $-10
So the answer is $-10

Joy wants to buy strawberries and raspberries to bring to a party. Strawberries cost $1.60 per pound and raspberries cost $1.75
zimovet [89]

Answer: 1.60x + 1.75y is less than or equal to 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the strawberries cost $1.60 per pound, it would be x pounds times $1.60 for the total cost of strawberries. Since the raspberries cost $1.75 per pound, it would be y pounds times $1.75 for the total cost of the raspberries. The total cost of both, or 1.60x + 1.75y, must be equal to or less than 10 because she cannot spend over 10 dollars.

Solve the multi step literal equation: solve equation for A b^2A^2-3g=q
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

A = ± \sqrt{\frac{q+3g}{b^2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

b²A² - 3g = q ( add 3g to both sides )

b²A² = q + 3g ( divide both sides by b² )

A² = \frac{q+3g}{b^2} ( take the square root of both sides )

A = ± \sqrt{\frac{q+3g}{b^2} }
