1 answer:

7 0

<span>4x•2-12x=7
Subtract 12x from 4x
-8x*2=7
Divide 2 on both sides
-8x=3.5
Divide both sides by -8
Final Answer: x= -0.4375</span>

How can you use a right angle to decide how to name another angle

blondinia [14]

You can see if the other angles add up to 180 or 360 degrees (depending on shape) then add them to make it the number, for example, if a triangle has a right angle, then the other 2 angles are 45 degrees, knowing that EVERY triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees.

How to find the volume of a quarter-sphere?

Ganezh [65]

As the word suggests, a quarter-sphere is a quarter of a sphere, and thus the volume of a quarter-sphere is a quarter of the volume of the sphere.

The volume of a sphere is computed as

$\dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

So, the volume of a quarter-sphere is

$\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \dfrac{1}{3} \pi r^3$

Let r and s be the roots of x^2 - 6x + 2 = 0. Find (r - s)^2.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer: $(r-s)^{2} = 28$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{2} -6x+9=-2+9$
$(x-3)^{2}=7$
$(x-3)= -\sqrt{7}$ or $\sqrt{7}$ <-- there's no plus/minus sign.

$(x-3) = -\sqrt{7}$
$x = 3 -\sqrt{7}$ <-- root.

$(x-3) = \sqrt{7}$
$x = 3+\sqrt{7}$ <-- root.

$[(3-\sqrt{7})-(3+\sqrt{7})]^{2}$
$(3-\sqrt{7} -3 - \sqrt{7})^{2}$ <-- don't forget to distribute the negative.
$(-2\sqrt{7})^{2}$
$(4)(7)$
$28$
