Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor they share is 4.

In quadratic equations,
a + b = -B
ab = C
where a and b are the roots, B is the second term, and C is the constant.
Substituting,
a + b = -12
ab = 35
The values of a and b from the equation is -7 and -5. Thus, the lesser root is -7.
Answer:
see the attachments for the two solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
When the given angle is opposite the shorter of the given sides, there will generally be two solutions. The exception is the case where the triangle is a right triangle (the ratio of the given sides is equal to the sine of the given angle). If the given angle is opposite the longer of the given sides, there is only one solution.
When a side and its opposite angle are given, as here, the law of sines can be used to solve the triangle(s). When the given angle is included between two given sides, the law of cosines can be used to solve the (one) triangle.
___
Here, the law of sines can be used to solve the triangle:
A = arcsin(a/c·sin(C)) = arcsin(25/24·sin(70°)) = 78.19° or 101.81°
B = 180° -70° -A = 31.81° or 8.19°
b = 24·sin(B)/sin(70°) = 13.46 or 3.64
Answer:
6.79
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you will have to know how much is 3% of 7 in order to decrease it by that amount.
7 x 0.03 = 0.21
Now that you know the amount, you can subtract it from seven and therefore you have decreased 7 by 3%.
7 - 0.21 = 6.79
We need to start from the innermost parenthesis and work our way out.
The first parenthesis is
. These are not like terms because one involves a variable, while the other is a constant term. Two terms are summable if they involve the same power(s) of the same variable(s).
So, we can take one step outwards, and we arrive to the square brackets. We have

and 2z and -13z are like terms, so we can sum them:

Finally we arrive to the whole expression, which is

Because, again, 5z and 11z were like terms.
