Ooh, quadratic equations!
alright, you see that zero at the end right?
that means you are trying to find the two factors
I'll write out the equation on paper to show you

take note of the signs in b and c
(ax²+bx+c)
because 5x is a negative (-5x), when you factor it out, the two, when multiplied together, should be negative. and because 30 is negative, the numbers will have two different signs. in other words, one will be positive and one will be negative.
now that that's cleared, we need to find all of the multiples of 30
there is:
30×1
15×2
10×3
and 6×5
of all of them, 10 and 3 would give you the -5 needed in -5× since one of them are going to be multiplied times 5
now let's factor it:
(5x+10)(x-3)
finally, divide everything
I wrote everything down for you to see

So you multiply both 5x then it would be 10x^2-30=0 then you square root 10x and you do the same for 2, so 2 would be 1.4… and 10x would be 3.16… then it’s 3.16-30=0 then you add 3.16 to both sides 3.16 plus 30 and 30 plus 3.16. The answer will be 33.16.

Based on one of the Triangle Congruence Postulates, the two triangles are shown are congruent
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

all the sides match up. One side (the base) is shared which means they are the same length. The triangle at the top has a single hash on a side and so does the bottom one. This means they are the same length. The same thing occurs with the last remaining sides, they are congruent because they both have two hash lines. Since all three sides of both triangle add up, the triangles ARE CONGRUENT.

Matt wants to purchase a gasoline motor scooter. The gas mileage 75 miles for each 1/2 gallon of gasoline. How many miles will M
Paraphin [41]

Answer: 750 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The gas mileage is 75 miles per 1/2 gallon of gasoline.

First find how many miles it can go on 1 gallon of gasoline:

= 75 ÷ 1/2

= 150 miles

If the scooter can go 150 miles on 1 gallon, the number of miles it will go on 5 gallons is:

= 5 * 150

= 750 miles
