First lets distribute the 5x
5x^2 + 30x = -50
Lets divide every term by 5
x^2 + 6x = -10
To complete the square we have to half the b value, which in this case is 6. Then square it.
Half of 6 is 3, 3 squared is 9
Add that to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 6x + 9 = -1
Find the binomial squared
(x+3)^2 (If you're wondering how i got that please comment)
(x+3)^2 = -1
Take the square root of the equation of both sides
(x+3) = +/- i
x = -3 +/- i
x = -3 - i
and
x = -3 + i
The correct answer is C) (5m^50 - 11n^8) (5m^50 + 11n^8)
We can tell this because of the rule regarding factoring the difference of two perfect squares. When we have two squares being multiplied, we can use the following rule.
a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
In this case, or first term is 25m^100. So we can solve that by setting it equal to a^2.
a^2 = 25m^100 -----> take the square root of both sides
a = 5m^50
Then we can do the same for the b term.
b^2 = 121n^16 ----->take the square root of both sides
b = 11n^8
Now we can use both in the equation already given
(a - b)(a + b)
(5m^50 - 11n^16)(5m^50 + 11n^16)
Answer:
<em>t = 3 seconds</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation, as a function of time, that describes the height of the object that is dropped from the bridge.
The equation is:
Where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.
To know how long it takes the object to fall to the ground we do h (t) = 0 and solve for t.
So:
We take the positive solution.
Therefore the object takes 3 seconds to reach the ground
The product is 3.3333333333333 so less. hope this was helpfull
