Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 4x - 5 = 0
x² - 5x + x - 5 = 0
x(x - 5) + (x -5) = 0
(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0
x - 5 = 0 ; x + 1 = 0
x = 5 ; x = -1
The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Answer:
293.5
Step-by-step explanation:
40×50/2
=1000 cm²
π×15²
3.14×225
706.5
1000-706.5=293.5 cm²
