What are the solutions for x to the equation (x-3)(x+8)=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
hichkok12 [17]3 years ago
7 0

For this case we have a factored expression, of a second degree equation:

((x-3) (x + 8) = 0

To find the solutions:

  • x-3 = 0

we add 3 to both sides of the equation:

x=3

  • x+8=0

We subtract 8 on both sides of the equation:

x = -8

Thus, the solutions of the equation are:

x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 8

Answer:

x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 8

Which proportion could be used to find the length of side b?​
Goshia [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Sine Rule in ΔABC

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} = \frac{c}{sinC}

∠C = 180° - (82 + 58)° = 180° - 140° = 40°

Completing values in the above formula gives

\frac{a}{sin58} = \frac{b}{sin82} = \frac{8.4}{sin40}

We require a pair of ratios which contain b and 3 known quantities, that is

\frac{b}{sin82} = \frac{8.4}{sin40}

OR

\frac{sin40}{8.4} = \frac{sin82}{b} → B

A computer online service charges one hourly rate for regular use but a higher hourly rate for designated "premium" areas. One c
N76 [4]

Answer: the service charge per hour for premium services is $5.5

the service charge per hour for regular services is $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the service charge per hour for premium services.

Let y represent the service charge per hour for regular services.

One customer was charged $38 after spending 2 h in premium areas and 9 regular hours. It means that

2x + 9y = 38- - - - - - - - - - - 1

Another customer spent 3 h in premium areas and 6 regular hours and was charged $34.50. It means that

3x + 6y = 34.5- - - - - - - - - - -2

We would eliminate x by multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2. It becomes

6x + 27y = 114

6x + 12y = 69

Subtracting, it becomes

15y = 45

y = 45/15

y = 3

Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 9 × 3 = 38

2x + 27 = 38

2x = 38 - 27 = 11

x = 11/2 = 5.5

Identify three ways that ocean plants cycle carbon
pav-90 [236]
Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in the surface waters of the ocean. Some of the carbon dioxide stays as dissolved gas, but much of it gets turned into other things. Photosynthesis by tiny marine plants (phytoplankton) in the sunlit surface waters turns the carbon into organic matter.
