(5x+1)² = 7; expand: 25x² + 10x +1 = 7 or 25x² + 10x -6 = 0
Solve this quadratic for x:
x = [-b + √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and x = [-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
Plug the values and you'll find :
x = (- √7 - 1)/5 (answer C)
x = (+√7 -1)/5 (answer E)
It would be the second answer.
2 hours. She spent 1 hour for math which was half so the total would be 2*1=2.
1/2x=1 /x2
x=2
Answer:
CA = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
By intersecting chords theorem:

CA = 14 + ( 3 + 3x)
CA = 14 + ( 3 + 3*5)
CA = 14 + ( 3 + 15)
CA = 14 + 18
CA = 32
