Solve for x in the equation x^2+10x+12=36.

1 answer:

3 0

Solve for x:
x^2 + 10 x + 12 = 36

36 = 36:
x^2 + 10 x + 12 = 36

Subtract 12 from both sides:
x^2 + 10 x = 24

Add 25 to both sides:
x^2 + 10 x + 25 = 49

Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 5)^2 = 49

Take the square root of both sides:
x + 5 = 7 or x + 5 = -7

Subtract 5 from both sides:
x = 2 or x + 5 = -7

Subtract 5 from both sides:
Answer: x = 2 or x = -12 Thus the Answer is A.

Suppose an ant walks counterclockwise on the unit circle from the point to the endpoint of the radius that forms an angle of rad

serg [7]

Answer:

$\frac{4\pi}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The original questions is suppose an ant walks counterclockwise on a unit circle from the point (1,0) to the endpoint of the radius that forms an angle of 240 degrees with the positive horizontal axis.

To find the distance ant walked we find the arc length of the sector with central angle 240 degree and radius =1 (unit circle)

arc length of a sector = $\frac{centralangle}{360} \cdot 2\pi r$

arc length of a sector = $\frac{240}{360} \cdot 2\pi(1)$

arc length of a sector = $\frac{2}{3} \cdot 2\pi$

$\frac{4\pi}{3}$

How to draw a line that passrs through the origion and has a slope of 2/3?

Tcecarenko [31]

The origin is (0,0)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2/3
(0,0)...x = 0 and y = 0
now we sub and find b, the y int
0 = 2/3(0) + b
0 = b

so ur equation is y = 2/3x + 0...or just y = 2/3x
