Assuming it equals 0
for
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

given
5x^2+2x-3=0
a=5
b=2
c=-3

x=\frac{-2+/- \sqrt{2^2-4(5)(-3)} }{2(5)}
x=\frac{-2+/- \sqrt{4+60} }{10}
x=\frac{-2+/- \sqrt{64} }{10}
x=\frac{-2+/- 8 }{10}
x=(-2+8)/10 or (-2-8)/10
x=6/10 or -10/10
x=3/5 or -1

If Hannah gives her younger sister 3 shirts, it does not matter what order she hands them to her. No matter the order, it will still be the same group of 3 shirt. Since order is not important this problem can be solved using a combination. 
Specifically, we are asked to find 8C3 (sometimes called "8 choose 3"). This is a fraction. In the numerator, we start with 8 and count down 3 numbers. In the denominator, we start with 3 and count all the way down to 1.
your answer is 56

Pls help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

9.89 m

Step-by-step explanation:

AC is the hypotenuse (H)

x is the opposite (O)

O and H are in sine

sin=O/H

H=O/sin

H=7.9/sin(53)

Maricella solves for x in the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1. She begins by adding –4 + 4 on the left side of the equation an
Elodia [21]

Maricella’s strategy is incorrect as the values added on the left and right side of the equation changes the original equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1  to  4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3.

Further explanation:

Maricella begin by adding -4+4 on the left side of the equation and 1+1 on the right side of the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1.

The value added on the left is equal to zero so it does not change the equation but the value added on the right is 2, a non-zero digit so it changes the equation as shown below.

4x-2(3x-4)+4-4+4=-x+3(x+1)+1+1+1\\4x-2(3x-4)+4+0=-x+3(x+1)+1+2\\4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3

Therefore, the strategy used by Maricella will change the equation and so the solution of the equation will be incorrect.

One way of solving such a linear equation is by adding or subtracting the required value on each side of the equation. and then simplifying the further equation.

Similarly, the other way to solve any linear equation is by separating the variable terms on one side of the equation and constant terms on the other side of the equation.

After this simplify the linear equation to obtain the solution of the equation for x.

Whereas Maricella’s strategy fails to solve the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1 since the values added and subtracted in the equation changes the original equation completely.

if the input value is negative, is the output value of f(z)=-4z+12 always positive or always negative?
expeople1 [14]
If the input value is negative, the output value is always positive.  We know this because the negative sign before the 4z will always reverse the negativity of the number that is plugged in.

From a point 100 m from a building the angles of elevation of the top and bottom of a flagpole atop a building are 54.5 degrees
AnnZ [28]

Answer:60ft

Step-by-step explanation:The height of the flagpole is approximately  

60

feet.

Explanation:

Always try to draw a diagram.

enter image source here

We know that there is a right angle between the ground and the building. Therefore, we can use the 3 basic trig ratios instead of the sine or cosine law to solve this problem.

Since the angle in the corner of the larger right triangle measures  

42

˚

, the top angle in this triangle measures  

180

˚

−

90

˚

−

42

˚

=

.

By basic trig ratios, we can find the height of the building with the flag pole on top, call it  

H

.

tan

H

H

=

tan

˚

I would keep it in exact form until the last step.

We now devise an expression for the height of the building (without the flag pole). Call it  

a

a

=

We can now state that

The flagpole is

f

t

in height to the nearest foot.

Explanation:

1) The flagpole is on top of a building.

2)Angles of elevation both measured from point  

500

f

t

from building

3) Angle of elevation to the top of building is  

38

4) Angle of elevation to the top of flagpole is

e

g

The information above will provide us with two right angle triangles, one smaller one inside a larger one.

Both will have a base of  

500

f

t

.

The smaller triangle will have a base angle  

β

of  

38

deg opposite the  

90

deg, and the larger triangle will have a base angle  

β

of  

42

deg.

From this information we can find the heights of the building and the building + pole using the definition of the tangent of the two base angles  

β
