Solve x^2 +5x - 14 = 0​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Grace [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = - 7, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x - 14 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 7 and - 2, since

7 × - 2 = - 14 and 7 - 2 = + 5 , thus

(x + 7)x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

jasenka [17]
To find surface area, you can find the area od all sides and add them together
First, area of an triangle is 1/2 length times width
So you do 1/2 6*9= 1/2 54=  27  The area of the three triangles are 27
27 times 3 is  81
81 plus the base of 15.6 is 96.6
The surface area is 96.6 meters squared
