Not the best handwriting but I hope it helped!
1) given x^4 + 95x^2 - 500
2) split in two factors with common factor term x^2: (x^2 + )(x^2 - )
3) find two numbers that add up 95 and their product is - 500:
=> 100*(-5) = - 500 and 100 - 5 = 95
=> (x^2 + 100)(x^2 - 5)
4) factor x^2 - 5 = (x + √5) (x - √5)
5) write the prime factors: (x^2 + 100) (x + √5) (x -√5)
6) find the solutions:
x^2 + 100 = 0 => not possible
x + √5 = 0 => x = - √5
x - √5 = 0 => x = √5
Answer: x = √5 and x = - √5
X+x+54=180
2x+54=180
2x=126
x=63
63+54=117
one angle is 63, the other is 117
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Measures of angles are,
m∠A = (2x)°
m∠B = (x + 14)°
m∠C = (x - 38)°
By triangle sum theorem,
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
2x + (x + 14) + (x - 38) = 180
(2x + x + x) + (14 - 38) = 180
4x - 24 = 180
4x = 204
x = 51
m∠A = 2(51)° = 102°
m∠B = (51 + 14)° = 65°
m∠C = (51 - 38)° = 13°
