Answer:

x = -0.683 (3dp)

x = -7.317 (3dp)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Apply the quadratic formula</u>

(-b±(\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac})) / 2a

a = 1 <em>(x²)</em>

b = 8 <em>(8x)</em>

c = 5 <em>(5)</em>

(-8±(\sqrt{8^{2}-4 x 1 x 5})) / 2 x 1

<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>

(-8±(\sqrt{44})) / 2

<u>Step 3: Solve</u>

You need to replace the ± with first a + and then a -.

(-8+(\sqrt{44})) / 2 = -0.683 (3dp) = x

(-8-(\sqrt{44})) / 2 = -7.317 (3dp) = x

Hope this helps!

Find the missing values of the variables. The diagram is not to scale. (Image attached below)thank you ! :)

Answer:

\begin{gathered} x=\text{ 99}\degree \\ y\text{ = 64}\degree \end{gathered}

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of x and y

From the given image, the angle y and 116 lie on a straight line

The sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees

Thus:

\begin{gathered} 116\text{ + y = 180} \\ y\text{ =180-116} \\ y\text{ = 64}\degree \end{gathered}

The sum of the internal angles of a polygon can be calculated by the formula:

180(n-2)

where n is the number of sides the polygon has

In the case of the given question, n is 4

Substituting the value of n, we have it that:

180(4-2)\text{ = 360 degrees}

To get the value of x:

\begin{gathered} x\text{ + y + 125 + 72 = 360} \\ But\text{ from above , y = 64}\degree \\ Substituting\text{ this:} \\ x\text{ + 64 + 125 + 72 = 360} \\ x\text{ = 360-125-64-72} \\ x\text{ = 99 } \end{gathered}

postnew [5]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the indicated multiplication, using the distribution rule:

10 + 6x = 4x + 16

Gathering the first  powers of x on the left and the constants on the right, we get:

2x = 6, or x = 3

Answer:

x=

Step-by-step explanation:

1.first solve the hypotenuse of (12 squared+16 squared) = (Hy squared)

2.then find the square root of the Hypotenuse

{h}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {hy}^{2}
