X² - 4x +40=0 How do I solve this

sineoko [7]4 years ago

Answer:

x = 2 + 6i, x - 6i.

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this you need 2 numbers whose product is + 40 and whose sum is -4. There are no such numbers so we could use the method of completing the square:

x^2 - 4x + 40 = 90

x^2 - 4x = -40

(x - 2)^2 - 4 = -40

(x - 2)^2 = -36     -  So the roots are complex numbers:

x - 2 = +/-√36

x = 2 + 6i, x - 6i.

Answer:

g=56

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar shapes, corresponding sides are always in the same ratio.

For example,

if the sides in triangle 1 were a and b, and triangle 2 had side lengths c and d, c and a had the same ratios, and b and d had the same ratios

and triangle 1 was similar to triangle 2, the ratio between the sides of the triangles would be

a/c, which is also equal to b/d

What that means is that in this situation, 8/5=g/35.

8/5=g/35

Cross multiply.

(8)*(35)=g*(5)

280=5g

g=56
