Answer:

(x^4 + 5 x^3 - 16 x^2 - 36)/x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

x^2 + 5 x - 16 - 36/x^2

Put each term in x^2 + 5 x - 16 - 36/x^2 over the common denominator x^2: x^2 + 5 x - 16 - 36/x^2 = x^4/x^2 + (5 x^3)/x^2 - (16 x^2)/x^2 - 36/x^2:

x^4/x^2 + (5 x^3)/x^2 - (16 x^2)/x^2 - 36/x^2

x^4/x^2 + (5 x^3)/x^2 - (16 x^2)/x^2 - 36/x^2 = (x^4 + 5 x^3 - 16 x^2 - 36)/x^2:

Answer: (x^4 + 5 x^3 - 16 x^2 - 36)/x^2

Answer: 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the lengths of AB, BC, and CA

AB = $\sqrt{(4-(-1))^{2} + (-1-4)^{2} }$ = 5 $\sqrt{2}$ ≈ 7.1

BC = $\sqrt{(0-(-1))^{2} + (-3-4)^{2} }$ = 5 $\sqrt{2}$ ≈ 7.1

CA = $\sqrt{(0-4)^{2} + (-3-(-1))^{2} }$ = 2 $\sqrt{5}$ ≈ 4.5

7.1 + 7.1 + 4.5 = 18.7

Find all solutions to each quadratic equation

romanna [79]

I hope this helps you

2x^2-4x+7=0 a=2 b=-4 c= 7

disctirminant =b^2-4ac

disctirminant =(-4)^2-4.2.7

disctirminant = 16-56= -40

x=-b+square root of disctirminant ÷2a

x=4+2square root of (-10)/4

x=2+square root of (-10)/2

x'=4 -2 square root of (-10)/4

x'=2 -square root of (-10)/2

IMPORTANT <br><br>[how do you]Find sin theta if tan theta = 3/4

zvonat [6]

$\bf tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{3}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{4}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{hypotenuse}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
c=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\implies c=5
\\\\\\
sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{3}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5}}$

bear in mind that, though the square has two valid roots, one negative and one positive, the hypotenuse is just a radius distance, and therefore is never negative.

Multiply the following polynomials, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Write the answer in descending pow

marshall27 [118]

The easiest method of multiplying polynomials, in my experience, is the FOIL method. Honestly, I couldn't tell you what the letters stand for anymore, but I definitely remember how to do it. It's just distribution.
(6x+1)(5x+8)
Multiply the 6x by 5x and 8, then the 1 by 5x and 8:
30x²+48x+5x+8
Then combine like terms:
30x²+53x+8
