x^2 +3x-18=0\\ x^2-3x+6x-18=0\\ x(x-3)+6(x-3)=0\\ (x+6)(x-3)=0\\ x=-6 \vee x=3

Your solutions would be x = -6 or x = 3.


To find the solutions of this equation you must first factor it by finding factors of -18 that have a difference of 3. This gives you:


(x + 6)(x - 3) = 0


If you set each bracket equal to 0, you can solve for x by either adding 3 or subtracting 6 and get x equal to -6 or 3.


I hope this helps!

  8. DC ≅ DG . . . . . . . . . CPCTC
  9. ∠DCG ≅ ∠DGC . . . base angles of isosceles ΔDGC
  10. ∠BDG ≅ ∠BAC . . . .corresponding angles of similar triangles
  11. ∠BDG = ∠DCG + ∠DGC = 2∠DCG . . . external angle is equal to the sum of opposite internal angles (of ΔDCG)
  12. ∠BAC + ∠ACB + ∠ABC = 180° . . . . sum of angles of a triangle
  13. (∠BAC)/2 + (∠ACB)/2 + (∠ABC)/2 = 90° . . . . division property of equality (divide equation of 12 by 2)
  14. ∠DCG + 45° + ∠ECH = 90° . . . . substitute (∠BAC)/2 = (∠BDG)/2 = ∠DCG (from 10 and 11); substitute (∠ABC)/2 = (∠AEH)/2 = ∠ECH (from 5 and 6)
  15. This equation represents the sum of angles at point C: ∠DCG + ∠HCG + ∠ECH = 90°, ∴ ∠HCG = 45° . . . . subtraction property of equality, transitive property of equality. (Subtract ∠DCG+∠ECH from both equations (14 and 15).)

Answer:

$3.94

Step-by-step explanation:

$30.42 + $9.89 + $5.75 = £46.06
