Answer:

<em>Answer</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>option</em><em> </em><em>d</em><em> </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

given \: expression \: is \:  {(x - 3)}^{2}  = 5 \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x + 9 = 5 \\ subtracting \: 5 \: on \: both \: sides \: we \: get \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x + 4 = 0 \\ on \: solving \: the \: quadratic \: equation \: by \\  \: completing \: square \: method \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x =  - 4 \\ adding \:  {3}^{2} on \: both \: sides \: w e\: get \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x +  {3}^{2}  =  {3}^{2}  - 4 \\  {(x - 3)}^{2} = 5 \\ x - 3 + =    \sqrt{5}  \\ x =  \sqrt{5 }  + 3

Titus drew a circle with his compass. The circle has five central angles. Four of the angles measure 55°, 37°, 96°, and 88°. Wha
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

84°

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle has five central angles that together equal to 360°.

55° + 37° + 96° + 88° = 276°

Hence, to find the fifth central angle, we have to subtract 276° from 360°.

360° - 276° = 84°

The degree measure of the last central angle is 84°.

Hope this helps! :)

7. What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (14, -18) and (5, -12)?​
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

slope =-\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} to find the slope, or m. The x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of one point, and the x_2 and y_2 represent the x and y values of another point. So, substitute the x and y values of the points (14, -18) and (5, -12) into the formula and solve:

m = \frac{(-12)-(-18)}{(5)-(14)}\\m = \frac{-12+18}{5-14}\\m = \frac{6}{-9} \\m = -\frac{2}{3}

Thus, the slope is -\frac{2}{3}.

the base of a ten foot ladder stands six feet from a house. How many feet up the house does the ladder reach
Ludmilka [50]
In this problem you will need to use the Pythagorean theorem (c^2=a^2+b^2).
The a and b represents the two edges, while c is the diagonal side and it is called the hypotenuse. Since you already know what the hypotenuse is and what one of the sides already are you just have to use the problem: c^2-a^2=b^2. Then if you plug the data you already have into the problem you will get 10^2-6^2=b^2. That then equals 100-36=b^2. Then you subtract and get b^2=64. Then you square root both sides and you get the answer b=8.
