C. 96.82 kPa because to find the amount of pressure the air is causing you need to subtract the amount of pressure the water vapor is causing because the only two gasses making up the air in the pool area are air and water vapor.
Answer:
x = 1, -7.5
Explanation:
2x² + 13x = 15
Divide the left side of the equation by 2
2(x² + 6.5x) = 15
Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient
6.5/2 = 3.25
3.25² = 10.5625
Add 10.5625 to the left side
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15
Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.
10.5625 • 2 = 21.125
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125
To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x
b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25
2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125
Divide by 2
(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625
Square root.
(x + 3.25) = √18.0625
x + 3.25 = ±4.25
Subtract 3.25.
x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1
x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5
x = 1, -7.5
