Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x^2+5x+25/2=0

Multiply each side by 2 to clear the fractions

2*(1/2x^2+5x+25/2)=0*2

Distribute

x^2+10x+25=0

What two numbers multiply together to give us 25 and add together to give us 10

5*5 = 25

5+5 =10

(x+5) (x+5) =0

Using the zero product property

x+5 =0  x+5 = 0

x+5-5= 0-5    x+5-5 =0-5

x=-5  x=-5

x=-5

ou live in the building on the left in the drawing, and a friend lives in the other building. the two of you are having a discus
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1.3

Friend is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

friend's claim: height of his building is more than 1.50 times the height of yours

line of sight to the top edge of the other building makes an angle of 21° above the horizontal

line of sight to the base of the other building makes an angle of 52° below the horizontal

Solution:

Let A be the height of your building is A

Let B+A his building is B higher than yours.

Let the distance between the buildings is x.  

then

tan 52 = A/x

tan 21 = B/x  

A/B = tan 52 / tan 21

      =  1.27994 / 0.38386

A/B = 3.33

(A + B) / A = 1.5 0

A/A + B/A = 1.50

1 + B/A = 1.50

B/A is basically (B/x) / (A/x)

So

1+ 3.33 / 3.33

= 4.33/3.33

= 1.3

Since 1.3 is not equal to 1.5

Hence the friend's claim is wrong.

A science teacher has a supply of 50% sugar solution and a supply of 80% sugar solution. How much of each solution should the te
mash [69]
How much of each solution should the teacher mix together to get 105 ML of 60% sugar solution for an experiment?

1. Look at how 60% is closer to the solution of lower concentration (50%). You can deduce that you will be mixing a higher volume of the 50% solution.

2. All 4 answers add up to 105ml.

3. The intuitive answer is the first option:
70 ML of the 50% solution and 35 ML of the 80% solution

4. Let's check whether point 3 is true.
70ml/105ml X 0.5 + 35ml/105ml X 0.8 = (35 + 28)/105= 63/105= 60% / 105 ml = 105ml of 60% sugar solution

What would be the slope for (-4,-7) (-6,4)​
Sliva [168]

Answer:\frac{11}{-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so I'm going to try to show it the best c an

m = slope

the equation you use is

\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} = m

so when using that formula with the cords, you get

\frac{4-(-7)}{-6-(-4)}

and then subtract everything and you'll get

\frac{11}{-2}
