Solve for x: x^2+4x-5=16x
first take 16x from both sides of the equation
x²-12x-5=0
now we have a quadratic. we can solve it by using the quadratic formula
x=-b plus or minus the square root of b²-4ac all divided by 2a
where a=1, b=-12 and c=-5
plug these numbers into the formula
x=12 plus or minus the square root of 144-4x1x-5 all divided by 2
<span>x=12 plus or minus the square root of 164 all divided by 2
or in decimal form </span>x = {12.403124237, -0.403124237}

Let a=(?2,1,2, b=(?1,2,4, and p=(k,k,k. the vector from a to b is perpendicular to the vector from a to p when k =
prohojiy [21]
Vector a = (2, 1, 2)
Vector b = (1, 2, 4)
Vector p = (k, k, k)

Vector a to vector b = vector b - vector a = (1, 2, 4) - (2, 1, 2) = (1 - 2, 2 - 1, 4 - 2) = (-1, 1, 2)
Vector a to vector p = vector p - vector a = (k, k, k) - (2, 1, 2) = (k - 2, k - 1, k - 2)

Vector a to b is perpendicular to vector a to p if the dot product of vector a to vector b and vector a to vector p is equal to zero.
i.e. (-1, 1, 2) . (k - 2, k - 1, k - 2) = 0
-1(k - 2) + (k - 1) + 2(k - 2) = 0
-k + 2 + k - 1 + 2k - 4 = 0
2k -3 = 0
2k = 3
k = 3/2

What is the change from -9 to -1?.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Positive 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they're both negative numbers and it went from -9 to -1, you had to have added a positive number to get a lesser negative number. To put it simply, if you were to subtract 8 from 9, you'd get 1.
