Solve the following C^2-14=5c

Mathematics
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c = - 2, c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

c² - 14 = 5c ( subtract 5c from both sides )

c² - 5c - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

To factorise the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the c- term (- 5)

The factors are - 7 and + 2, since

- 7 × 2 = - 14 and - 7 + 2 = - 5, hence

(c - 7)(c + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for c

c - 7 = 0 ⇒ c = 7

c + 2 = 0 ⇒ c = - 2

Answer:

a) x=5

b) x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

3x+7=180-(10x-22)

3x+7=202-10x

13x=195

x=5

b)

11x-3=4x+39

7x=42

x=6

I am so sorry I forgot what the formula names are but these are the correct solutions. It has been a while since I've done Geometry.

A certain radioactive isotope decays at a rate of 2% per 100 years. if t represents time in years and y represents the amount of
gregori [183]
We rewrite the equation:
 y = y0 * e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)
 In this equation:
 I = represents the initial amount of the isotope
 We have then:
 89% of the isotope left:
 0.89 * y0 = y0 * e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)
 We clear the time:
 e ^ (- 0.0002 * t) = 0.89
 Ln (e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)) = Ln (0.89)
 -0.0002 * t = Ln (0.89)
 t = Ln (0.89) / (- 0.0002)
 t = 582.6690813
 round to the nearest year:
 t = 583 years
 Answer:
 
There will be 89% of the isotope left in about:
 
t = 583 years
