Answer:

The final answers are x = 5 OR x = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation is x^2 -5 = 4x

Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 -4x -5 = 0.

a = 1, b = -4, c = -5.

Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)

x = ( 4 ± √(16 -4*1*-5) ) / (2*1)

x = ( 4 ± √(16 +20) ) / (2)

x = ( 4 ± √(36) ) / (2)

x = ( 4 ± 6 ) / (2)

x = (4+6) / (2) OR x = (4-6) / (2)

x = 10/2 OR x = -2/2

x = 5 OR x = -1

Hence, final answers are x = 5 OR x = -1.

Answer:

Thus, the two root of the given quadratic equation  x^2-5=4x  is 5 and -1 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider, the given Quadratic equation, x^2-5=4x

This can be written as ,  x^2-4x-5=0

We have to solve using quadratic formula,

For a given quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 we can find roots using,

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}  ...........(1)

Where,  \sqrt{b^2-4ac} is the discriminant.

Here, a = 1 , b = -4 , c = -5

Substitute in (1) , we get,

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\Rightarrow x=\frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{(-4)^2-4\cdot 1 \cdot (-5)}}{2 \cdot 1}

\Rightarrow x=\frac{4\pm\sqrt{36}}{2}

\Rightarrow x=\frac{4\pm 6}{2}

\Rightarrow x_1=\frac{4+6}{2} and \Rightarrow x_2=\frac{4-6}{2}

\Rightarrow x_1=\frac{10}{2} and \Rightarrow x_2=\frac{-2}{2}

\Rightarrow x_1=5 and \Rightarrow x_2=-1

Thus, the two root of the given quadratic equation x^2-5=4x is 5 and -1 .

Find the length of side AB in the right triangle shown.
Bogdan [553]
Side AB is 72 cm long.



Explanation:

To find the length of side AB you have to use this formula:

{a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}

*Remember there are two legs (a and b) and a hypotenuse (c) on a triangle. The longest side will be the hypotenuse and the other two will be the legs. For this triangle the hypotenuse is side BC while the legs are sides CA and side AB.

Plug in the numbers into the equation.


{65}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {97}^{2}
For this triangle, you were given the hypotenuse (c) and one leg (a). To find the last length solve the equation and balance it so only b is left, like this:

4225 +  {b}^{2}  = 9409

9409 - 4225 = 5184

Soo...

{b}^{2}  = 5184

Then to get the side length, square root 5184.

\sqrt{5184}  = 72

So the length of the last side is 72 cm.

Quesuon Z: 2 PES
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

124 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

The yard is a 12ft square so the length and width would both be 12ft. You multiply the length and width of the yard to get the area of the yard so 12x12=144. You have the length and width of the flower bed so 5x4=20. Once you have the area of both you can subtract the area the flower bed takes up of the lawn. 144-20=124 ft2.
