Answer:
x = - 1 ± 2i
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the discriminant b² - 4ac to determine the nature of the roots
• If b² - 4ac > , roots are real and distinct
• If b² - 4ac = 0, roots are real and equal
• If b² - ac < 0, roots are not real
for x² + 2x + 5 = 0
with a = 1, b = 2 and c = 5, then
b² - 4ac = 2² - (4 × 1 × 5 ) = 4 - 20 = - 16
since b² - 4ac < 0 there are 2 complex roots
using the quadratic formula to calculate the roots
x = ( - 2 ±
) / 2
= (- 2 ± 4i ) / 2 = - 1 ± 2i
Answer:
y=0.5x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The points are (0,5) and (-10,0)
to find the slope do
0-5/-10-0 = 5/10 = 1/2 = 0.5
next plug one of the points into point slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1)
lets use the point (-10,0)
y1=0
x1= -10
m= 0.5
y-0=0.5(x- -10)
y = 0.5(x+10)
distribute the 0.5
y=0.5x+5
Answer:
C. 1307 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Angle = 48.4 degrees
Height, opposite side= 1472 feet
his distance from the Empire State Building, base=x
Now as per the trigonometric ratios:
Tan∅= Opposite/base
tan(48.4)= 1472/x
x=1472/(1.13)
x=1302.65
his distance from the Empire State Building is 1302.65 feet!
