Answer:
x=-6 is an extraneous solution
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

squared both sides



solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=-6 and x=-1
see the attached figure
<u><em>Verify each solution</em></u>
substitute the value of x in the original expression
For x=-6


----> is not true
so
Is an extraneous solution
For x=-1


----> is true
so
Is the solution
I found the image that accompanied this problem.
We need to solve for the area of the sector.
A = n/360 * π * r²
A = 85/360 * 3.14 * 5²
A = 0.2361 * 3.14 * 25
A = 18.5347
Answer is C. 18.5 square meters.
Alright.
So, we have 2185 student in Rose.
Lily School has 307 more students than Rose, so Lily has,
2185 + 307 = 2492 Students in Lily School.
Since question a. is asking you to round off to the nearest ten, your answer to part a is 2490.
For part b. add 2185 and 2490.
2185 + 2490 = 4675 students.
The questions want you to round to the nearest hundredth, so,
4700 is the answer to part b.

Answer: Choice D) 7.5 cm</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
We are told that quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH.
The order of the four letter sequence is important.
- For ABCD, we have AB as the first pair of letters.
- For EFGH, we have EF as the first pair of letters.
Therefore, AB and EF are corresponding sides.
So AB = 10 and EF = x pair up together. We can form the ratio AB/EF which becomes 10/x.
The diagram shows that AD = 8. Notice that A and D are the first and last letters of ABCD. The first and last letters of EFGH are E and H. We can see that AD and EH correspond to one another because of this.
AD = 8 and EH = 6 forming the ratio AD/EH = 8/6
Because the quadrilaterals are similar, the corresponding ratios must be the same. Therefore, AB/EF is the same as AD/EH.
-----------------------
Let's set up a proportion to solve for x
AB/EF = AD/EH
10/x = 8/6
10*6 = x*8
60 = 8x
8x = 60
x = 60/8
x = 7.5 Answer is choice D
