8 0

Answer:

a = - 5, a = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a² + 8a + 15 = 0 ← in standard form

(a + 3)(a + 5) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for a

a + 3 = 0 ⇒ a = - 3

a + 5 = 0 ⇒ a = - 5

Progress:

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality is.

4x + 5 ≥ 13

We will further solve this inequality,

(4x + 5) - 5 ≥ 13 - 5

4x ≥ 8

$\frac{4x}{4}\geq \frac{8}{4}$

x ≥ 2

Therefore, on a number line solution of x will be all values of x greater than equal to 2.

Which will be represented by and arrow starting with a solid point from x = 2 directing towards numbers greater than 2.

Option (1) will be the answer.

What is the area of the figure to the nearest hundredth renter the answer in the box 2yd 4yd

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

9.57 yd squared

Step-by-step explanation:

we can divide this figure into two shapes: a rectangle and a semi-circle

since we know the length and width of the rectangle, all we ahve to do is multiply them together to find the area: 8 yd squared

for the semi-circle, we know the area is $\frac{\\\pi r^2}{2\\}$

raduis is half the diameter so 1 yd

$\frac{3.14(1)^2}{2}$

$\frac{3.14}{2}$

1.57 yd squared

lastly, add the area of the two figures together 8+1.57
