Answer:

x=+/-3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^4-5x^2-36=0

factor

(x^2-9)(x^2+4)=0

split into 2 equations because one of these terms will need to equal zero for the eqation to be true

x^2-9=0 x^2+4=0

x^2=9 x^2=-4

x=+/-3 no real numbers

surface area= summation of area of all the faces the object has

out object has 2 triangular faces, and 3 rectangular faces

S.A = 2(0.5bh) + LW +LW+LW

= 2(0.5 x 8 x 15) + (15x7) + (17 x 7) + (7×8)

= 120+105+119+56

Please answer the following:

serg [7]

The sum of all interior angles in a polygon is
180(n - 2), where n = the number of sides in the polygon.

now, notice this figure above, it has 5 sides, namely is a PENTAgon, so the sum of all its interior angles is 180( 5 - 2), or 540, therefore

$\bf (4x)~+~(3x+15)~~+~~(4x-25)~~+~~(3x+25)~~+~~(2x-3)=540
\\\\\\
16x+12=540\implies 16x=528\implies x=\cfrac{528}{16}\implies x=33$

Simplify the following expression

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

A.( 3m+28)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically since it is addition we just add 9 to -2 to get 7. So then the equation becomes (3m/4)+7. Then we will multiply 7 by 4 to get common denominator so it will be (3m+(7*4))/4 which is (3m+28)/4.
