ANSWER

x =  \: x =  \pm \:  \sqrt{2} i \: or \: x =  \pm \: i

EXPLANATION

{x}^{4}  + 3 {x}^{2}  + 2 = 0

{ ({x}^{2}) }^{2}  + 3( {x}^{2})  + 2 = 0

Let

u  =  {x}^{2}

Then the equation becomes:

{u}^{2}  + 3u + 2 = 0

{u}^{2}  + 3u + 2 = 0

{u}^{2}  + 2u +u +  2 = 0

Factor:

{u}(u + 2)+ 1(u +  2) = 0

(u + 1)(u +  2) = 0

u =  - 1

or

u =  - 2

This implies that

{x}^{2}  =  - 1 \implies \: x =  \pm \: i

or

{x}^{2}  =  - 2 \implies \: x =  \pm \:  \sqrt{2} i

(2)/(3) =( 4)/( 3+x) help give brainliest if correct and explanation please
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

(2)/(3) =( 4)/( 3+x)

Cross multiply

2*(3+x)= 4*3

Solve bracket

6+2x=12

Subtract 6 from both sides

2x=6

Divide both sides by 2

x=3

Hope it helps :-)

The three inside angles (A,B and C) of a right-angled triangle are in the ratio 7:18:11. Th smallest angle is 35. Work out angle
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

<A = 35degrees

<B =90degrees

<C = 55degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratios of a triangle as 7:18:11

Total ratio = 7+18+11

Total ratio = 36

Since the smallest angle is 35degrees, hence <A = 35degrees

Get angle B;

<B = 18/36 * 180 (sum of angle in a triangle is 180degrees)

<B = 1/2 * 180

<B = 90degrees

Get angle C;

<C = 11/36 * 180

<C = 11 * 5

<C = 55degrees

Hence the value of A, B and C are 35, 90 and 55 degrees repectively

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = lenght * width * depth

let the depth be x

32400=60*30*x

x=32400/(60*30)

x=32400/1800

x=18
