This is a perfect square trnomial
(a+b)²=a²+2ab+b²
we see that a=5x and b=2
(5x)²+2(5x)(2)+2²=0
factor
(5x+2)²=0
set equal to zero
5x+2=0
5x=-2
x=-2/5
Answer:
4:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Legit just simplified it.The original ratio is 24:18. First found the greatest common multiple (GCF) and divided both by it. In this case it was 6. So 24/6 = 4 and 18/6 = 3. Now your newly simplified ratio of apples to pears is 4:3.
<span>(5x^7 y^2)(-4x^4 y^5) =-20x^a y^b
</span><span>
solve this:
(5x^7 y^2)(-4x^4 y^5)
= -20 x^(7 + 4) y^(2 + 5)
= -20 x^11 y^7
answer
</span>A) a=11, b=7
<span>15 - 13(2x + 6) < 15 - 3(6x - 7)
15 - 26x - 78 < 15 - 18x + 21
-26x -63 < -18x + 36
-8x < 99
x > -99/8
or
x > - 12.375
