Solve this x2 – 8x + 15

Mathematics

Answer:

x=5    x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 – 8x + 15

What two numbers multiply to 15 and add to -8

-5*-3 = 15

-5 +-3 = -8

(x-5) (x-3) =0

Using the zero product property

x-5 =0         x-3 =0

x=5                x=3

Answer:

x=5 or x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

find two numbers that add up to the middle number (-8) and multiply to equal the last number (15)

in this case -5 and -3 add to be -8 and multiply to be 15

add these numbers in place of -8x

x^2-5x-3x+15 now add parentheses

(x^2-5x) (-3x+15) take out common factors

(x-5)(x-3) now make each set of parentheses equal to zero

x-5=0 x-3=0 now solve

x=5 x=3

Is EFGH below a rectangle
poizon [28]

Answer:

  D. No, because EFGH is a parallelogram but it’s diagonals are not congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

The differences between the end points of the diagonals are ...

  F -H = (1, 1) -(2, -5) = (1 -2, 1 -(-5)) = (-1, 6)

  G -E = (4, -2) -(-1, -2) = (4 -(-1), -2 -(-2)) = (5, 0)

The length of FH is more than 6, the length of GE is exactly 5. The diagonals are different length, so the figure cannot be a rectangle.

__

The midpoints of the diagonals will be in the same place if the sum of their end points is the same. (Dividing each sum by 2 gives the midpoint of that segment.)

  F+H = (1, 1) +(2, -5) = (3, -4)

  G+E = (4, -2) +(-1, -2) = (3, -4)

The diagonals bisect each other (have the same midpoint), so the figure is a parallelogram.

EFGH is a parallelogram, but not a rectangle: its diagonals are not congruent.

In the diagram below what is the approximate length of the minor arc XY
sveta [45]

C = 2pi r= 2 (3.14) (27) = 169.56

Let XY = x

169.56 / 360 = x / 60

360x = 169.56 * 60

360x = 10173.60

x = 28.26

x = 28.3

Answer is C. 28.3 cm
