Answer: {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}
Step-by-step explanation: First isolate the binomial squared by adding 40 to both sides to get (x - 5)² = 40.
Next, square root both sides to get x - 5 = ± √40.
Notice that root of 40 can be broken down to 2√10.
So we have x - 5 = ± 2√10.
To get <em>x</em> by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x = 5 ± 2√10.
So our answer is just {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}.
As a matter of form, the number will always come before the
radical term in your answer to these types of problems.
In other words, we use 5 ± 2√10 instead of ± 2√10 + 5.
Answer:
one bag is heavier and the other is lighter.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 = more than half a pound
1/4 = less than half a pound
Intersection of the first two lines:
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5:
Subtract the two equations:
Plug this value for y in one of the equation, for example the first:
So, the first point of intersection is 
We can find the intersection of the other two lines in the same way: we start with
Use the fact that x and y are the same to rewrite the second equation as
And since x and y are the same, the second point is 
So, we're looking for a line passing through and . We may use the formula to find the equation of a line knowing two of its points, but in this case it is very clear that both points have the same coordinates, so the line must be 
In the attached figure, line 
is light green, line 
is dark green, and their intersection is point A.
Simiarly, line 
is red, line 
is orange, and their intersection is B.
As you can see, the line connecting A and B is the red line itself.
The first one 7/2 represents the change in y over change in x.
For those kinds of questions I would refer to the change in y over change in x method.
Bullet 3 would work because 7/2 doesn’t result to 1. So that’s not the answer.
I hope that helps
Answer:
51.63m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is made up of a rectangle, triangle and a semi circle
Area of the figure = Area of triangle + rectangle + semicircle
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 3 * 5
Area of the triangle = 15/2
Area of the triangle = 7.5m^3
Area of the rectangle = Length * Width
Area of the rectangle = 6 * 5
Area of the rectangle = 30m^2
Area of the semicircle = πr²/2
Area of the semicircle = π(3)²/2
Area of the semicircle = 3.14(9)/2
Area of the semicircle = 3.14 * 4.5
Area of the semicircle = 14.13m^2
The area = 30 + 14.13+7.5
Area of the figure = 51.63m^3
