Add 1/2 to both sides:

-\dfrac{1}{2}+p+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{5}{8}+\dfrac{1}{2} \iff p = \dfrac{5}{8}+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{5}{8}+\dfrac{4}{8} = \dfrac{9}{8}

Select all of the following that are quadratic equations.
kifflom [539]
A quadratic equation is one in which the highest exponent of x is 2.
7x^2+14x=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent is 2.
x³-3x²+1=0 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 3, not 2.
5x-7=0 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²+3x-5=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.
x-5=9x+7 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²-x=3x+7 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.

2. a. A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

A. -12 meters

B. 28 meters

C. 40 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface of the ocean would be 0.

Taking this into account, 12 meters below would be 0 - 12, which is -12. Therefore A's elevation would be -12.

For the sea bird, 28 meters above the surface, which is again 0, would be 0 + 28. B's elevation is 28.

Since the fish is 12 meters below the surface and the sea bird is 28 meters above the surface, simply add the two numbers up to get a total of 40 meters. C would be 40 meters.

Find the measure of each angle :Supplementary angles with measures (2x+4) and (3x+1)
denpristay [2]
First of all, we need to know what is supplementary angle is. It's means that two angles add together to get 180° angle. For examples, 135° and 45° angles add together called supplemtary angles.
Now, we know Supplementary angles with measures (2x+4) and (3x+1), so
(2x+4)+(3x+1)=180
2x+4+3x+1=180
Combining like terms
2x+3x+4+1=180
5x+5=180
Subtract 5 to each side
5x+5-5=180-5
5x=175
Divided 5 to each side
5x/5=175/5
x=35°
Next, find the measure of two angles by substitute x=35° with (2x+4) and (3x+1), so
2x+4
=2(35)+4
=70+4
=74°

(3x+1)
=3x+1
=3(35)+1
=105+1
=106°. As a result, the two supplementary angle are 106° and 74°. Hope it help!
