Add 10 and use the quadratic formula.
  5x^2 +11x -2 = 0
  x = (-11 ±√(11^2 -4(5)(-2)))/(2(5))
  x = (-11 ±√161)/10 ≈ {-2.368858, 0.168858}

_____
The quadratic formula tells you that for ax^{2}+bx+c=0 the solutions are
x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

Add 10 to both sides so that the equation becomes 5x^2 + 11x - 2 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                     x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                     x = [ -11 ± √(11^2 - 4(5)(-2)) ] / ( 2(5) )
                     x = [ -11 ± √(121 - (-40) ) ] / ( 10 )
                     x = [ -11 ± √(161) ] / ( 10)
                     x = [ -11 ± sqrt(161) ] / ( 10 )
                     x = -11/10 ± sqrt(161)/10
The answers are -11/10 + sqrt(161)/10 and -11/10 - sqrt(161)/10.

What is the solution to the equation?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

3 {(x + 9)}^{ \frac{3}{4} }  = 24 \\  \\ {(x + 9)}^{ \frac{3}{4} }  =  \frac{24}{3}  \\  \\  {(x + 9)}^{ \frac{3}{4} }  =  8  \\  \\  {(x + 9)}^{ \frac{3}{4} }  =   {2}^{3}   \\  \\ (x + 9) =  {2}^{3 \times  \frac{4}{3} }  \\  \\ x + 9 =  {2}^{4}  \\  \\ x + 9 = 16 \\  \\ x = 16 - 9 \\  \\ x = 7

ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLZ ANSWER
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -6x - 5

The equation is put in slope intercept form

( y = mx + b )

Where m = slope and b = y intercept

-6 is in the spot of "m"

Meaning that the slope would be -6

Find the distance between (3,4) and (4,-6) if necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The distance is:

d = 10.0 units (Rounded to the nearest the Tenths Place)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

  • (3,4)
  • (4,-6)

The distance 'd' between (3,4) and (4,-6)

\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):

d=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

substituting the points values

   =\sqrt{\left(4-3\right)^2+\left(-6-4\right)^2}

   =\sqrt{1+10^2}

   =\sqrt{1+100}

   =\sqrt{101}

   =10.0  units (Rounded to the nearest the Tenths Place)

Thus, the distance is:

d = 10.0 units (Rounded to the nearest the Tenths Place)
