Complete the square for 5x^2 – 30x = 5.

First, subtract 5 from both sides, leaving you with 5 $x^{2}$ - 30x - 5 = 0
If you use the quadratic formula (a=5), (b=-30), (c=-5)

x=-b +/- √b²-4ac / 2a

x= -(30) +/- √(30)² - 4(5) * (-5) / 2(5)

x= 30 +/- √1000 / 10

x = 3 +/- √10

Which three side lengths best describe the triangle in the diagram?

Ksenya-84 [330]

The three side length that describes the triangle in the image attached below are: 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm.

<h3>What is a Triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a shape that has three sides. The sides can be measured using a ruler.

The sides of the triangle in the image shown have side lengths as measured by the ruler beside each of the sides, which are 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm.

Therefore, the three side lengths of the triangle in the diagram are: 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm.

Steve likes to entertain friends at parties with "wire tricks." Suppose he takes a piece of wire 60 inches long and cuts it into

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a) the length of the wire for the circle = $(\frac{60\pi }{\pi+4}) in$

b)the length of the wire for the square = $(\frac{240}{\pi+4}) in$

c) the smallest possible area = 126.02 in² into two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

If one piece of wire for the square is y; and another piece of wire for circle is (60-y).

Then; we can say; let the side of the square be b

so 4(b)=y

b= $\frac{y}{4}$

Area of the square which is L² can now be said to be;

$A_S=(\frac{y}{4})^2 = \frac{y^2}{16}$

On the otherhand; let the radius (r) of the circle be;

2πr = 60-y

$r = \frac{60-y}{2\pi }$

Area of the circle which is πr² can now be;

$A_C= \pi (\frac{60-y}{2\pi } )^2$

$=( \frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

Total Area (A);

A = $A_S+A_C$

= $\frac{y^2}{16} +(\frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

For the smallest possible area; $\frac{dA}{dy}=0$

∴ $\frac{2y}{16}+\frac{2(60-y)(-1)}{4\pi}=0$

If we divide through with (2) and each entity move to the opposite side; we have:

$\frac{y}{18}=\frac{(60-y)}{2\pi}$

By cross multiplying; we have:

2πy = 480 - 8y

collect like terms

(2π + 8) y = 480

which can be reduced to (π + 4)y = 240 by dividing through with 2

$y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$

∴ since $y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$ , we can determine for the length of the circle ;

60-y can now be;

= $60-\frac{240}{\pi+4}$

= $\frac{(\pi+4)*60-240}{\pi+40}$

= $\frac{60\pi+240-240}{\pi+4}$

= $(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+4})in$

also, the length of wire for the square (y) ; $y= (\frac{240}{\pi+4})in$

The smallest possible area (A) = $\frac{1}{16} (\frac{240}{\pi+4})^2+(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+y})^2(\frac{1}{4\pi})$

= 126.0223095 in²

≅ 126.02 in² ( to two decimal places)
