Answer:

b = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

x² + bx - 81

To find,

value of b

What is factorable?

A polynomial equation with highest degree 2 is if factorable when

  1. we can find two terms which when multiples = -81x²,   <em> ( x² * - 81 = -81x² ) </em>
  2. and when add = bx

possible factors:

  1. -1x * 81x = -81x²   (Accepted)
  2. 1x * -81x= -81x²    (rejected)
  3. 9x * -9x = -81x²    (rejected)
  4. -9x * 9x = -81x²    (rejected)

Only when -1x , 81x is added -1x + 81x = 80x

so, bx = 80x

     b   = 80

<h3>The equation is x² + 80x - 81</h3>

Which two values of X are roots of the polynomial below 4x^2-6x+1
PtichkaEL [24]

4x^2-6x+1=0\\\\a=4,\ b=-6,\ c=1\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\\Delta=(-6)^2-4(4)(1)=36-16=20\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{20}=\sqrt{4\cdot5}=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt5=2\sqrt5\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a},\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-(-6)-2\sqrt5}{2\cdot4}=\dfrac{3-\sqrt5}{4}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-(-6)+2\sqrt5}{2\cdot4}=\dfrac{3+\sqrt5}{4}

I need help with question four and the instructions for the equations or just solve the systems of simultaneously equation using
Sliva [168]

Answer:

x = 1\2 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 3y = 4 * 5\3

14x - 5y = 7 * 1

40\3x + 5y = 20\3 -------- 1

14x - 5y = 7 ----------------- 2

add equation 1 and 2

82\3x = 41\3

x = <u>4</u><u>1</u><u> </u> <u>3</u>

3 * 82

x = 1\2

subtitute 1\2 for x in equation 2

14\2 - 5y = 7

7 - 5y = 7

5y = 7 - 7

y = 0\5

y = 0

thus x = 1\2 and y = 0
