<h3>Answer:  x = -2 or x = 7  (choice D)</h3>

==========================================

Work Shown:

x^2 - 5x = 14

x^2 - 5x - 14 = 0

(x-7)(x+2) = 0 .... this step is further explained below

x-7 = 0 or x+2 = 0

x = 7 or x = -2

The order of the solutions does not matter.

-------------------------

To factor x^2-5x-14, we need to find two numbers that multiply to -14 and add to -5. This is done through trial and error. I recommend making a table to help organize everything. See the diagram below.

After a bit of guess work, you should find that -7 and 2 are the two values we're after

-7 + 2 = -5

-7 * 2 = -14

This is why x^2-5x-14 = (x-7)(x+2)

Dude, what kind of question is this??? Here's my best shot.
If they start at the 32-mile mark, then the we can use 32 as the intercept. 50 can be the change in position over time, so

Please help, will give brainliest to first
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

AN = 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can use the fact that \frac{AN}{FN} =\frac{OR}{FR}

  • Since this is an isosceles triangle, segments FO and FR are both equal to 7

Manipulating the equation above to solve for AN we have AN = \frac{(FN)(OR)}{FR}

  • Substituting in the known values we have AN=\frac{(10)(11.2)}{7} =16

Step-by-step explanation:

Area : angle

9pi : 2pi

x : pi/9

9pi/2pi = x/(pi/9)

4.5 × pi/9 = x

x = ½pi or 0.5pi units²
