F(x) = x^2 - 8x + 5

f(-1) = -1^2 - 8(-1) + 5
f(-1) = 1 + 8 + 5
f(-1) = 14 <==

The ratio of the measures of three angles is 3:8:9. find the measure of each angle of the triangle.
MAXImum [283]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have that the ratio of the measures of the three angles is 3:8:9

2. The sum of the interior angle of a triangle is 180degrees

3. Let's say that the measure of each angle is x multiplied by the ratio. Therefore, you can write the following equation and solve for x:

3x+8x+9x=180\\ x=9

4. Therefore, the measure of each angle is:

3(9)=27degrees\\ 8(9)=72degrees\\ 9(9)=81degrees

The answer is: 27degrees, 72degrees,81degrees

The solutions for the quadratic equation are given as follows:

x = -1, x = 7/5

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function is given according to the following rule:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The solutions are:

  • x_1 = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}
  • x_2 = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}

In which:

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac

For this problem, the equation is:

5x² - 2x - 7 = 0.

Hence the coefficients are a = 5, b = -2 and c = -7, and then the solutions are found as follows:

  • \Delta = (-2)^2 - 4(5)(7) = 144
  • x_1 = \frac{2 + \sqrt{144}}{10} = \frac{7}{5}
  • x_2 = \frac{2 - \sqrt{144}}{10} = -1

The solutions are:

x = -1, x = 7/5
