Solve x^2 +5x - 14 = 0​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Grace [21]4 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

The most recent poll of 50 randomly-selected members of a school club with a total of 80 members showed that 38 are planning to
melisa1 [442]

Answer with Explanation:

Total number of members in School Club = 80 members

Number of member randomly Selected,that is sample size used  (P) = 50 members

Number of members who are planning to vote for Talia = 38 members

Z Score for 95% confidence interval =1.96

it is given that Margin of Error ,E,of the poll using a 95% confidence interval=12%

E=\frac{Z*\sigma}{\sqrt{P}}\\\\ \frac{12}{100}=\frac{1.96 * \sigma}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\ \sigma=4.32890

Standard Deviation=4.3 (approx)

→95% confidence level for students who are planning to vote for Talia as president of the club lie between → 38 + 4.3 = 42.3 to 38 -4.3=33.7.

→So, members which will vote for Talia as president of the club lies between minimum of 33 members and maximum of 42 members.

Find the m∡B to the nearest tenth of a degree if cos B = 0.8926 and ∡B is an acute angle
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

26.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side of the triangle in which the angle is formed to the hypotenuses side of the triangle. The cosine of the angle gives the ratio of these sides. However, the arc cosine of the ratio gives the angle measured in degrees.

If cos B = 0.8926

then arc cosine 0.8926  which may be expressed as cos-1 0.8926 will give the value of B.

B = cos-1 0.8926

= 26.8°
