Answer:

168

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to multiply these two expressions together and then substitute -2 in for x to solve.

f(x) * g(x) = (8 - 10x) * (5x + 4)

We will use FOIL (first, outer, inner last):

(8 - 10x) * (5x + 4) = 8 * 5x + 8 * 4 + (-10x) * 5x + (-10x) * 4

Combining terms, we get:

f(x) * g(x) = 32 - 50x²

Plug -2 in for x:

32 - 50 * (-2)² = 32 - 50 * 4 = 32 - 200 = -168

The answer is thus 168.

Find the area of the triangle created with the diagonal. Each side length measures 8 feet. Help ASAP please.
Oxana [17]
The answer would be 32ft (squared). The formula for area of a triangle is base times length, divided by two. Therefore 8 times 8 equals 64. 64 divided by 2 is 32. good luck!

Novosadov [1.4K]
If one doctor warns 3 out of 10 people who are not vaccinated will suffer from flu like symptoms then, that means 30% of the people who are not vaccinated will suffer from flu symptoms. So in a study of 1 million unvaccinated inhabitants we would take 30% of 1 million which is 300,000. If 12,000 unvaccinated people suffer from the flu that means the amount of people who were unvaccinated and also do not experience the flu like symptoms would be I believe 70% of 12,000 which is 8400

Consider the quadratic equation x2=4x-5. How many solutions does the equation have
Norma-Jean [14]
The quadratic formula is =(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
as you notice the term under the square root is b^2-4ac if it is postive then the equation clearly will have two real soultions if it is negative then the equation will have two imaginary soultion if it is zero then the the equation will have one soultion
so let us calculate b^2-4ac for our given equation
x^2=4x-5 so let us write it in general form which is ax^2+bx+c=0
subtracting 4x from both sides
x^2-4x=-5
adding 5 to both sides
x^2-4x+5=0
a=1,b=-4,c=5
b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(5)=16-20=-4
which means the equation has two imaginary soultions

Determine the area for the diagram above plzzzzz​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shown has one pair of parallel sides and is a trapezium

The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated using

A = \frac{1}{2} h(a + b)

where h is the height and a, b the length of the parallel sides

here h = 2w, a = w + 3 and b = 4w - 2, hence

A = \frac{1}{2} × 2w(w + 3 + 4w - 2)

   = w(5w + 1) = 5w² + w
