Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

x2 + -4x + -12 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-12 + -4x + x2 = 0

Solving

-12 + -4x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-2 + -1x)(6 + -1x) = 0

What are the types of roots of the equation below?<br> - 81=0
Tju [1.3M]

Option B, that is Two Complex and Two Real which are x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i, are the types of roots of the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0. This can be obtained by finding root of the equation using algebraic identity.    

<h3>What are the types of roots of the equation below?</h3>

Here in the question it is given that,

  • the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0

By using algebraic identity, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b², we get,  

⇒ x⁴ - 81 = 0                      

⇒ (x² +  9)(x² - 9) = 0

⇒ (x² + 9)(x² - 9) = 0

  1. (x² -  9) = (x² - 3²) = (x - 3)(x + 3) [using algebraic identity, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²]
  2. x² + 9 = 0 ⇒ x² = -9 ⇒ x = √-9 ⇒ x= √-1√9 ⇒x = ± 3i

⇒ (x² + 9) = (x - 3i)(x + 3i)

Now the equation becomes,

[(x - 3)(x + 3)][(x - 3i)(x + 3i)] = 0

Therefore x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i are the roots of the equation

To check whether the roots are correct multiply the roots with each other,

⇒ [(x - 3)(x + 3)][(x - 3i)(x + 3i)] = 0

⇒ [x² - 3x + 3x - 9][x² - 3xi + 3xi - 9i²] = 0

⇒ (x² +0x - 9)(x² +0xi - 9(- 1)) = 0

⇒ (x² - 9)(x² + 9) = 0

⇒ x⁴ - 9x² + 9x² - 81 = 0

⇒ x⁴ - 81 = 0

Hence Option B, that is Two Complex and Two Real which are x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i, are the types of roots of the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0.

Use the law of cosines to find the length of side C.
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

\text{D. 36.64}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines is given by \frac{a}{\sin A}=\frac{b}{\sin B}=\frac{c}{\sin C} and works for any triangle.

Therefore, we have the proportion:

\frac{c}{\sin 41.5^{\circ}}=\frac{37}{\sin 42^{\circ}},\\\\c=\frac{37\sin 41.5^{\circ}}{\sin 42^{\circ}}=36.6399945706\approx \boxed{36.64}

What is ✓ 75 in simplified form?<br> O 5V5<br> 0 2573<br> O 3V 5<br> O 3V 25
faust18 [17]
It should be 5√3

Because 25 x 3 = 75

√25=5 so u bring that out and keep the 3 in because it’s a prime number

In rectangle ABCD, point E lies half way between sides AB and CD and halfway between sides AD and BC. If AB=3 and BC=2, what is
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

<em>The area of the shaded region is 3.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point E lies halfway between AB and BC, the area of the shaded region (As) consists of two identical triangles with base equal to AB and height equal to half the measure of BC:

A_s=2 * A_t

Where At is the area of each triangle.

\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC/2}{2}

\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC}{4}

We know AB=3 and BC=2, thus:

\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3*2}{4}=\frac{6}{4}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3}{2}

Finally:

\displaystyle A_s=2 * \frac{3}{2}

A_s=3

The area of the shaded region is 3.

Note the area of the shaded region is half the area of the rectangle.
