Find the exact solution of the following quadratic equation by using the Quadratic Formula. x^2-9x=36

Mathematics
1 answer:
natita [175]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 12 or x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

x^2 - 9 x = 36

Subtract 36 from both sides:

x^2 - 9 x - 36 = 0

x = (9 ± sqrt((-9)^2 - 4 (-36)))/2 = (9 ± sqrt(81 + 144))/2 = (9 ± sqrt(225))/2:

x = (9 + sqrt(225))/2 or x = (9 - sqrt(225))/2

sqrt(225) = sqrt(9×25) = sqrt(3^2×5^2) = 3×5 = 15:

x = (9 + 15)/2 or x = (9 - 15)/2

(9 + 15)/2 = 24/2 = 12:

x = 12 or x = (9 - 15)/2

(9 - 15)/2 = -6/2 = -3:

Answer:  x = 12 or x = -3

Rectangle STUV has square PQRS removed, leaving an area of 92 m^2. Side PT is 4 m in length and side RV is 8m in length
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

117 m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First think of the square that was removed.  All 4 sides are equal but you don't know the length so lets gives them the variable X.

So to find the area of the rectangle, insert those variables into the area equation for a rectangle.

(RV + (X) ) (PT +(X)) = rectangle area

Now you are given what the area is if you remove the square.  So subtract the the square's area from the equation above and set it equal to the size they told you.

(RV + (X)) (PT + (X))  - [(X)(X)] = 92m^{2}

      rectangle          -  square  =  remaining area

Now plug in the numbers you know and solve for X.

(8 + X) (4 + X) - ((X)(X)) = 92    

Use FOIL to multiply the first part of the equation (first, outer, inner, last)

32 + 8x + 4x + x^{2} -  x^{2}  =  92

32 + 12x = 92

12x = 60

x = 5

So now you know the size of the square.  Each side is 5m.  So add 5m onto the top of the rectangle and onto the side.  The top is 13m and the side is 9m.  The area of the rectangle is the length times the height to 13 x 9 which is 117 m^{2}

A caterpillar eats 75 leaves in 5 hours. How many leaves will the caterpillar eat in 8 hours if it continues to eat at the same
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

120 leaves

Step-by-step explanation:

If the caterpillar eats 75 leaves in 5 hours and continues to eat at the same rate, the number of leaves eaten is simple, 120 leaves.

How I found the answer:

First, I divided 75 by 5 and got 15, then I multiplied 8 to 15 and got 120.

Graph the solutions of the inequality
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the solution of the inequality

t\leq -4

we know that

The solution is the interval ---> (-∞,-4]

All real numbers less than or equal to -4

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at left of t=-4 (closed circle, because the number -4 is included in the solution))

How many kilograms of coffee worth 40/kg must be mixed with coffee worth $11/kg to give 12kg of coffee worth $9.50/kg
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

0.62kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = 40/kg coffee

y = 11/kg coffee

two equations can be derived from the question

x + y = 12 equation 1

40x + 11y = 114 (9.5 x 12)  equation 2

multiply equation 1 by 11

11x + 11y = 132 equation 3

subtract eqn 3 from eqn 2

29x = 18

divide both sides of the equation by 29

x = 0.62kg
