Solve forx: x^2 = 5x

Mathematics

1 answer:

Akimi4 [234]2 years ago

4 0

Answer:

x = 5

x = 0

Pulling out like terms :

2.1 Pull out like factors :

x2 - 5x = x • (x - 5)

Equation at the end of step 2 :

x • (x - 5) = 0

Step 3 :

Theory - Roots of a product :

3.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

A boy rides his bike at a speed of 28 miles per hour. How

sergejj [24]

Answer:

About 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion and cross multiply.

$\frac{28 miles}{1 hour} = \frac{120 miles}{x}$

Cross multiply.

120 = 28x

Divide by 28 on both sides.

= 4.28571428571

Round this to the nearest whole number, which is just 4. The answer is about 4 hours.

Given radical a and radical b are in simplest radical form and radical a timed radical b equals c radical d and c radical d is i

lawyer [7]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sqrt(a) and sqrt(b) are in simplest radical form, that means a and b have no perfect square factors. When sqrt(a) and sqrt(b) are multiplied giving c * sqrt(d), the fact that c came out of the root means that there was c^2 inside the product sqrt(ab). This means that a and b have at least one common factor.

ab = c^2d

Example:

Let a = 6 and let b = 10.

sqrt(6) and sqrt(10) are in simplest radical form.

Now we multiply the radicals.

sqrt(a) * sqrt(b) = sqrt(6) * sqrt(10) = sqrt(60) = sqrt(4 * 15) = 2sqrt(15)

We have c = 2 and d = 15.

ab = c^2d

6 * 10 = 2^2 * 15

60 = 60

Our relationship between a, b and c, d works.
