What is the distance between the solutions to the quadratic equation x2 – 7x + 10 = 28

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 7x + 10 = 28 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

x² - 7x - 18 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 9)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

The distance between the solutions is

| 9 - (- 2) | = | 11  = 11 units

HELP ME PLEASE!!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a right angled triangle so you use the pythagorean theory

which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

you have c and b already. c is the hypotenuse.

a^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

a^2 + 256 = 400

a^2 = 400 - 256

a^2 = 144

then you square root 144 and get..

a = 12
