Answer:

x=1.472 or x=-7.472

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets begin by rearranging the equation into the format ax²+bx+c=0

The equation will be:

x²+6x+9-20=0

x²+6x-11=0

We shall use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.

x=[-b±√(b²-4ac)]/2a

=[-6±√(6²-4×1×-11)]/2

=[-6±√80]/2

=[-6±8.944]2

x= Either (-6+8.944)/2 or x= (-6-8.944)/2

Solving for x in each case gives:

x=1.472 or x=-7.472

Answer:

x = 1.47 or x = -7.47

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+6x+9=20

This is a quadratic equation

x²+6x+9-20=0

x²+6x-11=0

Step 1 : Write the quadratic formula

x = -b±√b²-4(a)(c)

Step 2 : Substitute values in the formula

a = 1

b = 6

c = -11

x = -6±√6²-4(1)(-11)

2(1)

x = -6±√80

x = -3 + 2√5 or x = -3 - 2√5

x = 1.47 or x = -7.47

Four interior angles of a pentagon measure 156°, 72°, 98°, and 87°. What is the measure of the final interior angle?

Annette [7]

Answer:

127 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

540 degrees is what the interior of a pentagon should add up to. So you do 540-156-72-98-87=127. The measure of the final interior angle is 127 degrees.

A "child has six blocks, three of which are red and three of which are green". How many patterns can shemake by placing them all

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: There are 20 ways and 1680 ways respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of blocks = 6

Number of red blocks = 3

Number of green blocks = 3

So, Number of patterns she can make by placing them all in a line is given by

$\dfrac{6!}{3!\times 3!}\\\\=20$

If there are 3 white blocks

so, total number of white blocks becomes 9

So, Number of total pattern she can make by placing all nine blocks in a line is given by

$\dfrac{9!}{3!\times 3!\times 3!}\\\\=1680\ ways$

Hence, there are 20 ways and 1680 ways respectively.

What is the difference of the polynomials?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$8r^6s^3-5r^5s^4+r^4s^5+5r^3s^6$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify;

$(8r^6s^3-9r^5s^4+3r^4s^5)-(2r^4s^5-5r^3s^6-4r^5s^4)$

We expand the bracket to obtain;

$8r^6s^3-9r^5s^4+3r^4s^5-2r^4s^5+5r^3s^6+4r^5s^4$

We now group the like terms to obtain;

$8r^6s^3-9r^5s^4+4r^5s^4+3r^4s^5-2r^4s^5+5r^3s^6$

We now simplify to get;

$8r^6s^3-5r^5s^4+r^4s^5+5r^3s^6$

The correct answer is C
