Factor both quadratic expressions. (x 4 + 5x 2 - 36)(2x 2 + 9x - 5) = 0
Sonbull [250]

So focusing on x^4 + 5x^2 - 36, we will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -36x^4 and a sum of 5x^2? That would be 9x^2 and -4x^2. Replace 5x^2 with 9x^2 - 4x^2: x^4+9x^2-4x^2-36

Next, factor x^4 + 9x^2 and -4x^2 - 36 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity inside of the parentheses: x^2(x^2+9)-4(x^2+9)

Now you can rewrite this as (x^2-4)(x^2+9) , however this is not completely factored. With (x^2 - 4), we are using the difference of squares, which is a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b) . Applying that here, we have (x+2)(x-2)(x^2+9) . x^4 + 5x^2 - 36 is completely factored.

Next, focusing now on 2x^2 + 9x - 5, we will also be completing the square. What two terms have a product of -10x^2 and a sum of 9x? That would be 10x and -x. Replace 9x with 10x - x: 2x^2+10x-x-5

Next, factor 2x^2 + 10x and -x - 5 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 2x(x+5)-1(x+5)

Now you can rewrite the equation as (2x-1)(x+5) . 2x^2 + 9x - 5 is completely factored.

<h3><u>Putting it all together, your factored expression is (x+2)(x-2)(x^2+9)(2x-1)(x+5)=0</u></h3>

Mr. Kohl has a breaker containing n milliliters of solution to distribute to the students in his chemistry class. If he gives ea
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Kohl has a "x" amount of solution, if he divides it by the number of students "n" he'll give each student 3 milliliters  and have a left over of 5 milliliters. If the amount of solution Mr. Kohl had was "x + 21" then he'd be able to give each student 4 milliliters of the solution. From these informations we have:

x = 3*n + 5

(x + 21)/n = 4

x + 21 = 4*n

x = 4*n - 21

Now that we have two equations and two variables we can solve the system of equations, as seen bellow:

3*n + 5 = 4*n - 21

3*n - 4*n = -21 - 5

-n = -26

n = 26

x = 4*26 - 21 = 83 ml

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.
