Answer:

x = - 9, x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - x - 90 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 90) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)

The factors are - 10 and + 9, since

- 10 × 9 = - 90 and - 10 + 9 = - 1 , thus

(x - 10)(x + 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9

lesser x = - 9

greater x = 10

a map distance of 5 inches represents 200 miles of actual distance suppose the distance between two cities on the map is 7in wha

Lesechka [4]

5in : 200mi

7in : xmi

One inch represents 40 miles.

7 * 40 miles = 280 miles.

The two cities are 280 miles apart.

Given that T is the centroid of △DEF and FT=12

dlinn [17]

The centroid of a triangle divides the median of the triangle into 1 : 2

The measure of FQ is 18, while the measure of TQ is 6

Because point T is the centroid, then we have the following ratio

$\mathbf{TQ : FT =1 : 2}$

Where FT = 12.

Substitute 12 for FT in the above ratio

$\mathbf{TQ : 12 =1 : 2}$

Express as fraction

$\mathbf{\frac{TQ }{ 12} =\frac{1 }{ 2}}$

Multiply both sides by 12

$\mathbf{TQ =\frac{1 }{ 2} \times 12}$

This gives

$\mathbf{TQ =\frac{1 2}{ 2}}$

Divide 12 by 2

$\mathbf{TQ =6}$

The measure of FQ is calculated using:

$\mathbf{FQ = FT + TQ}$

Substitute 12 for FT, and 6 for TQ

$\mathbf{FQ = 12 + 6}$

Add 12 and 6

$\mathbf{FQ = 18}$

Hence, the measure of FQ is 18, while the measure of TQ is 6

Rewrite the function in intercept form y=x^2+8x+15

gavmur [86]

<span>To do that, you need to set it all to zero and factor: x^2+8x+15 = 0 (x+5)(x+3) = 0 then put both those in parentheses chunks in their own equations x + 5 = 0 x + 3 = 0 and then simplify x = -5 x = -3 So the two points where the parabola crosses the x-axis are -5 and -3.</span>

In the school library, 28% of the books are non-fiction. If there are 1.224 fiction books in

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1700 books

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

% of non-fiction books in the library as 28%
Number of fiction books in the library as 1,224 books

We are required to determine the total number of books.

First we determine the percentage of non-fiction books

We need to know that;

% of fiction books + % of non-fiction books = 100%

Therefore;

% of non-fiction books = 100 % - 28 %

= 72%

Second we determine the total number of books

We know that;

Total number of books = 100%

But;

72% = 1,224 books

Therefore;

Total number of books = (1,224 × 100%) ÷ 72%

= 1700 books

Hence, the library has a total number of 1700 books
