Answer:

sqrt(277) =x

x is approximately 16.64331698

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle since 14 is tangent to the circle and 9 is a radius

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem

a^2 +b^2 =c^2

9^2+14^2 =x^2

81+196 = x^2

277 = x^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(277) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(277) =x

Answer:

x = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by the lowest common multiple of 4 and 3, which is 12.

3(x+2) = 4(x+8)

3x + 6 = 4x + 32 --- distribute the 4 and 3

6 = x + 32 --- subtract 3x from both sides

-26 = x --- subtract 32 from both sides

x = -26

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5.(a)

x²+6x-15=0

$x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+4*15}}{2*1}\\x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+60} }{2}\\x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{96} }{2}\\x=\frac{-6\pm4\sqrt{6} }{2}\\x=-3\pm2\sqrt{6}$

(b)

4x²-8x-1=0

$x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64+4*4}}{2*4}\\x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{80}}{8}\\x=\frac{8\pm 4\sqrt{5} }{8}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{5}}{2}$
