24x^2 +25x - 47 53
----------------------- = -8x -3 - ---------------
ax-2 ax-2
add 53/ax-2 to each side
24x^2 +25x - 47+53
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
multiply each side by ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6 = (ax-2) (-8x-3)
multiply out the right hand side
24x^2 +25x +6 = -8ax^2 +16x-3ax +6
24 = -8a 25 = 16 -3a
a = -3 9 = -3a
a = -3
Choice B
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
since they are parallel then 2x+6=106
so subtract 6 from each side so it's 2x = 100
then divide each since by 2
so x= 50
Answer:
229.18 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of a circle with radius r is 2×pi×r.
So if it has a radius of 1 mile, then the circumference is 2×pi×1=2pi miles.
So if we travel 4 miles, then the percentage of this circle we traveled is 4/(2pi)=63.66% approximately.
There are 360 degrees in a circle and we want to how much of that rotation belongs to traveling 4 miles of the circumference of a circle that measures 2pi miles. So 63.66%×360 degrees =229.18 degrees.
Answer:
-4 ± 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewritten in standard quadratic form, x^2+8x-2=18 becomes x^2 + 8x - 20 = 0.
Here the quadratic coefficients are a = 1, b = 8 and c = -20 and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 8^2 - 4(1)(-20), or 96.
Because the discriminant is positive, we know that this quadratic has two different real roots. These roots are:
-b ± √(b² - 4ac)
x = -------------------------
2a
which in this case comes out to:
-8 ± √96 -8 ± 4√6
x = ------------------ = ------------------- = -4 ± 2√6
