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 .

Arisa [49]

Answer:

-1 \frac{7}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-8y=15

4x-8y-4x=15-4x

-8y=15-4x

-8y/-8=15-4x/-8

y=-1 7/8+1/2x

slope is -1 7/8

How to do this? pls don't ignore
oksano4ka [1.4K]
So basically you just need to do the Pythagorean theorem to find the sides of the shaded rectangle, with c being the length of the side.

Small side:
2^2 + 6^2 = c^2
4 + 36 = c^2
40 = c^2
C is similar to 6.32456

Long side:
12^2 + 4^2 = c^2
144 + 16 = c^2
160=c^2
C is similar to 12.64911

And then you just multiply!
