If you have a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c
Step 1) Determine the product of AC (the coefficients in a quadratic equation)
Step 2) Determine what factors of a⋅ca⋅c sum to bb
Step 3) "ungroup" the middle term to become the sum of the factors found in step 2
Step 4) group the pairs.

Suppose a triangle has two sides of length 3and 4 and that the angle between these two sides is 60. What is the length of the th
tangare [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A.  √13

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make an educated guess and come to the right conclusion.

The triangle is nearly an equilateral triangle. A triangle with two sides 3 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 3. A triangle with two sides of 4 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 4.

So, the third side must be between 3 and 4. Here is an evaluation of the answer choices:

__

A -- between 3 and 4, the correct choice

B -- 3, too short

C -- 1.73, too short

D -- more than 4, too long

__

The question can be answered using your triangle solver app on your calculator, or using the Law of Cosines.

  c = √(a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C))

  c = √(3^2 +4^2 -2·3·4·(1/2)) = √(9 +16 -12)

  c = √13 . . . . . length of the side opposite the 60° angle

A bus driver pays all tolls, using only nickels and dimes, by throwing one coin at a time into the mechanical toll collector.
lutik1710 [3]

Answer: a) An = An-1 + An-2

b) 55ways

Step-by-step explanation:

a) a nickel is 5 cents and a dime is 10cent so a multiple of 5 cents is the possible way to pay the tolls in both choices.

Let An represents the number of possible ways the driver can pay a toll of 5n cents, so that

An = 5n cents

Case 1: Using a nickel for payment which is 5 cents, the number of ways given as;

An-1 = 5( n-1)

Case 2: using a dime which is two 5 cents, the number of ways is given as;

An-2 = 5(n-2)

Summing up the number of ways, we have

An = An-1 + An-2

From the relation,

If n= 0, Ao= 1

n =1, A1= 1

b) 45 cents paid in multiples of 5cents will give us 9 ways(A9)

From the relation, we have that

Ao = 1

A1 = 1

An =An-1 + An-2

Ao = 1

A1 = 1

A2 = A1+Ao = 1+1= 2

A3 = A2 + A1 = 3

A4 = A3+A2=5

A5=A4+A3=8

A6=A5+A4=13

A7 =A6+A5 = 21

A8= A7+A6= 34

A9= A8+A7= 55

So there are 55ways to pay 45cents.

Every Wednesday, Carla runs 2.5 miles. How many feet did she run?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

13,200 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5280 feet in a mile, so multiply 5280 by 2.5

5280*2.5=13,200

So, every Wednesday, she runs 13,200 feet

Hope this helps! :)

Which of the following are solutions to 2x^2-8x-90? select all that apply.
Lyrx [107]
<span>Simplifying:
2x2 + -8x + -90 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-90 + -8x + 2x2 = 0

Solving
-90 + -8x + 2x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.
2(-45 + -4x + x2) = 0

Factor a trinomial.
2((-5 + -1x)(9 + -1x)) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.
Subproblem 1:

Set the factor '(-5 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-5 + -1x = 0

Solving
-5 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -1x = 0 + 5

Combine like terms:
-5 + 5 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + 5 -1x = 0 + 5

Combine like terms:
0 + 5 = 5 -1x = 5

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = -5

Simplifying
x = -5

Subproblem 2:

Set the factor '(9 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
9 + -1x = 0

Solving
9 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-9' to each side of the equation.
9 + -9 + -1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms:
9 + -9 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -9 -1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms:
0 + -9 = -9 -1x = -9

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 9

Simplifying x = 9

Solution
x = {-5, 9}</span>
