Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x - 3 = 0

with a = 1, b = 5, c= - 3 , then

sum of roots x₁ + x₂ = - \frac{b}{a} = - \frac{5}{1} = - 5

product of roots = \frac{c}{a} = \frac{-3}{1} = - 3

Now

(x₁ + x₂)² = x₁² + 2x₁x₂ + x₂² , that is

(- 5)² = x₁² + 2(- 3) + x₂²

25 = x₁² - 6 + x₂² ( add 6 to both sides ), then

x₁² + x₂² = 31

What is the area of a triangle with a height of 13 cm and a base of a 10 cm?
Alecsey [184]
Area of a triangle is equal to 1/2 b(h) so since you already have the height and base, all you need to do is input it back into the equation:

\frac{1}{2} (10)(13)


Multiply 10 & 13 to equal 

\frac{1}{2} (130)

Then take half of 130 to get

A = 65 cm^{2}

Answer:

7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ \frac{x}{4}  +  \frac{x}{3} }{ \frac{x}{2} }  = \frac{x( \frac{1}{4}  +  \frac{1}{3} )}{ x(\frac{1}{2}) } \\  =  \frac{ \frac{1}{4}  +  \frac{1}{3} }{ \frac{1}{2} }  \\  =  \frac{14}{12}  =  \frac{7}{6}
