Solve 2x^2 + x - 4 = 0 X2 +

Mathematics
1 answer:
damaskus [11]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \ \ x = -\dfrac{\sqrt{33}+1}{4} \ \ or \ \ x = \dfrac{\sqrt{33}-1}{4} \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please find below my work.

2x^2+x-4=0\\\\\text{*** divide by 2 both sides ***}\\\\x^2+\dfrac{1}{2}x-2=0\\\\\text{*** complete the square ***}\\\\x^2+\dfrac{1}{2}x-2=(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1^2}{4^2}-2=0\\\\\text{*** simplify ***}\\\\(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1+16*2}{16}=(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{33}{16}=0

\text{*** add } \dfrac{33}{16} \text{ to both sides ***}\\\\(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2=\dfrac{33}{16}\\\\\text{**** take the root ***}\\\\x+\dfrac{1}{4}=\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{4}\\\\\text{*** subtract } \dfrac{1}{4} \text{ from both sides ***}\\\\x = -\dfrac{1}{4} -\dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{4} \ \ or \ \ x = -\dfrac{1}{4} +\dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{4}

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

Which of the following verifies that AABC is similar to A DEF?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the SAS theorem, if the 2 sides of the 2 triangles are multiples of each other by the same scale factor, with the angle in between them being the same for each triangle. The triangles are similar.

The SSS theorem is not appropriate here because we do not know the side lengths of AB or DE in the diagram. For SSS theorem we need to know all of the side lengths.

A is incorrect because the similarity can be determined.

andre [41]

Answer:

C: V=4840 (2 s.f.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is:

V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h

Therefore,

V=\frac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times(\frac{34}{2})^2\times 16\\\\V=4840 (2 s.f.)
