X^2 + (b/a)x + c/a = 0
x^2 + (b/a)x + c/a = 0
x^2 + 2(b/a)x + c/a - b/a = 0
x^2 + 2(b/a)x = b/a - c/a
x^2 + 2(b/a)x + (b/a)^2 = b/a - c/a + (b/a)^2
(x + b/a)^2 = b/a - c/a + (b/a)^2
p = -b/a
q = b/a - c/a + (b/a)^2

Answer:

x=4+-2\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to take square root of both sides first:

(x-4)^2=28\\\sqrt{(x-4)^2} =+-\sqrt{28} \\x-4=+-\sqrt{28}

Now we use the property of radical shown below to simplify square root of 28:

Property:  \sqrt{x*y}=\sqrt{x} \sqrt{y}

Now, we have:

x-4=+-\sqrt{28}\\x-4=+-\sqrt{4*7}\\x-4=+-\sqrt{4}\sqrt{7}\\x-4=+-2\sqrt{7}

Now we take 4 to the other side and isolate x:

x-4=+-2\sqrt{7} \\x=4+-2\sqrt{7}

first answer choice is right.

Please help!!<br> Each pair of polygons is similar. Find the value of x.
Simora [160]

Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4

Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75

Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.

===========================================================

Work Shown:

AC/QY = CD/YW

(x+5)/15 = 5/4

4(x+5) = 15*5

4x+20 = 75

4x = 75-20

4x = 55

x = 55/4

x = 13.75

------------

Explanations:

  • The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
  • In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
  • On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.

Answer: C. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated by y2-y1 over x2-y1. If we plug the numbers in we will get 6 over 3 as our slope which simplifies to our answer 2.

Please help me on number 4
Mariulka [41]
Angle 5 = 117° because it is vertical to angle 8
Angle 7 = 63° because it is symmetrical to angle 5
Angle 6 = 63° because it is vertical to angle 7.
Angle 1 = 117° because it is corresponding to angle 5.
Angle 2 = 63° because it is corresponding to angle 6.
Angle 3= 117° because it is corresponding to angle 8.
Angle 4 = 63° because it is corresponding to angle 7.
