5 0

Answer:

Hello

Here's the answer:

2x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0\\
2x^2+4x+x+2=0\\
2x(x+2)+1(x+2)=0\\
(2x+1)(x+2)=0\\
x=-\frac{1}{2} \vee x=-2

x^2-4x+1=0\\
x^2-4x+4-3=0\\
(x-2)^2=3\\
x-2 =\sqrt3 \vee x-2=-\sqrt3\\
x=2+\sqrt3 \vee x=2-\sqrt3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve x2 – 8x + 15 &lt; 0.<br><br> Select the critical points for the inequality shown.
quester [9]

Answer:

x=3,5

Explanation:

x2−8x+15=0

Try to express the terms of the equation in square form.

Adding 16 both sides of the equation,

(x2−2⋅x⋅4+42)+15=16

or,(x−4)2+15−16=0

or,(x−4)2−1=0

or,(x−4)2−12=0

This is the a2−b2=(a+b)(a−b)form.

(x−4+1)(x−4−1)=0

or,(x−3)(x−5)=0

Now, equate both the terms to zero since both of them when multiplied, give zero.

Either,

x−3=0

∴x=3

Or,

x−5=0

∴x=5

Ans:x=3,5 Hope this helpsXD...!!

Which of the following statements must be true based on the diagram below? Select
pentagon [3]

The question is an illustration of equivalent ratios and similar triangles.

<em>The true option is: </em>\frac{WU}{WV} = \frac{UR}{VS}<em />

From the diagram, we have:

WU =  UR ---- This is so because both lines are marked once

Also, we have:

WV = VS ---- This is so because both lines are marked twice

Divide both equations

\frac{WU}{WV} = \frac{UR}{VS}

Hence, the true option is: \frac{WU}{WV} = \frac{UR}{VS}
