Answer: x=- 8 or x=2


Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you can applly the quadratic formula, which is shown below:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

2. The quadratic  equation is:

x^{2}+6x-6-10=0\\x^{2}+6x-16=0

3. Then:

a=1

b=6

c=-16

4. Therefore, when you substitute these values into the quadratic formula, you obtain the following result:

x=\frac{6+/-\sqrt{6^{2}-4(1)(-16)}}{2(1)}

x_1=-8\\x_2=2

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 2

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Given equation is :

x²+6x-6 = 10

Adding -10 to both sides of above equation,we get

x²+6x-6-10 = -10+10

x²+6x-16 = 0

We can solve above equation by factoring.

Split the middle term of above equation so that the sum of two terms should be 6 and their product be -16.

x²+8x-2x-16 = 0

Make two groups and taking common  

x(x+8)-2(x+8) = 0

Taking (x+8) common,we get

(x+8)(x-2) = 0

Applying zero-Product Property to above equation,we get

x+8 = 0 or x-2 = 0

x = -8 or x = 2 which is the answer.

Suppose there are two circles where the radius of one circle is twice the radius of the other circle. Each circle has an arc whe
Artemon [7]

Answer:

L=2l where l,L denote arc lengths of two circles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l,L denote arc lengths of two circles, r,R denote corresponding radii and

\alpha _1\,,\alpha _2 denote the corresponding central angles.

So,

l=r\alpha _1 and L=R\alpha _2

This implies \alpha _1=\frac{l}{r} and \alpha _2=\frac{L}{R}

As each circle has an arc where the measures of the corresponding central angles are the same, \alpha _1=\alpha _2

\frac{l}{r}=\frac{L}{R}

As radius of one circle is twice the radius of the other circle,

R=2r

\frac{l}{r}=\frac{L}{2r}\\\frac{l}{1} =\frac{L}{2}\\L=2l

Calculate the speed of a wave with the frequency of 100 hz and wavelength of 250 m, please.
masya89 [10]

Answer:

25000m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The following formula is used to calculate the speed or velocity of a wave.

V = f * w

Where V is the velocity (m/s)

f is the frequency (hz)

w is the wavelength (m)

First, determine the frequency.

Calculate the frequency of the wave.

Next, determine the wavelength.

Calculate the wavelength of the wave.

Finally, calculate the wave speed.

Using the formula above, calculate the wave speed.
