Answer:
<h3>x = 3/2 ± √(61/20)</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 15x - 4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides.
5x² - 15x = 4
The coefficient of 5x² is 5, divide both sides by 5.
x² - 3x = 4/5
The coefficient of -3x is -3. Let b=-3.
Then we need to add (b/2)^2=9/4 to both sides to complete the square.
Add 9/4 to both sides.
x² - 3x + 9/4 = 61/20
Factor left side.
(x-3/2)² = 61/20
Take square root of both sides.
x-3/2 = ± √(61/20)
Add 3/2 to both sides.
x = 3/2 ± √(61/20)

Answer:
volume = 240b in³
Step-by-step explanation:
Width is b in
Volume = length * height * width
then:
volume = 16in * 15in * bin
volume = 240b in³
(0,-3) (2,1) is the two points we are going to use.
M=(1--3)/(2-0)=4/2=2
The slope is 2

Answer:
I'm not 100% sure but isn't a reflex angle the difference between the angle and 360°?
Then 360° - 120° = 240°
240° x 6 = 1440°
