5x^2+4x-1\\\\Method\ 1:\\\\5x^2+4x-1=5x^2+5x-x-1=5x(x+1)-1(x+1)\\=(x+1)(5x-1)\\\\5x^2+4x-1=(x+1)(5x-1)\\\\Method\ 2:\\\\5x^2+4x-1\\a=5;\ b=4;\ c=-1\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\\Delta=4^2-4\cdot5\cdot(-1)=16+20=36 \ \textgreater \  0\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{36}=6\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-4-6}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{-10}{10}=-1\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-4+6}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{2}{10}=0.2\\\\5x^2+4x-1=5(x-0.2)(x+1)=(5x-1)(x+1)

Find the side of a square whose diagonal is of the given measure.<br> Given = 15.2 cm
Neko [114]

Answer:

15cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First, a square's diagonal is basically the hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle. a 45-45-90 triangle has a really special relationship, where the side length is x, and the diagonal is x \sqrt{2}. So, the side length is 15.

According to the synthetic division below, which of the following statements are true?
statuscvo [17]

A, D and E are correct

given ( x - 4 ) is a factor then x =  4 is a root

the remainder on division by (x - 4 ) = 0 as indicated by the 0 on the right side of the quotient

(x - 4 ) is a factor of 3x² - 13x + 4 → A

the number 4is a root of f(x) = 3x² - 13x + 4 → D ( explained above )

thus 3x² - 13x + 4 ÷ (x - 4 ) = 3x - 1 → E

the quotient line 3 - 1 0

3 and - 1 are the coefficients of the linear quotient and 0 is the remainder
