To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
After thorough researching, if a jet in calm air conditions travels with velocity vector (389, 389) and the wind velocity (in mph) at the plane’s cruising altitude is given by (0, 50), then the plane’s true speed is 600 mph. The correct answer to the following given statement above is with the letter C.
Answer:
157 inches squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the figure into smaller figures (see image for one way):
Then, find the area of each figure. In my example:
= (4x5)+(5x12)+(11x7)
= 20+60+77
= 80+77
= 157 inches squared
