Answer:

  -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor outside parentheses multiplies each term inside.

  5/2(-8/5 +7/5)

  = (5/2)(-8/5) +(5/2)(7/5)

  = -8/2 +7/2 = -1/2

Solve for x in the equation x² - 4x - 9 = 29.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer: First option.


Step-by-step explanation:

 1. To solve this problem you can applly the quadratic formula, which is shown below:

 x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

2. The quadratic  equation is:

x^{2}-4x-9-29=0\\x^{2}-4x-38=0

3. Then:

a=1

b=-4

c=-38

4. Therefore, when you substitute these values into the quadratic formula, you obtain the following result:

x=\frac{-(-4)+/-\sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4(1)(-38)}}{2(1)}

x=2±√42

(a) It takes the Earth 365 days to complete a full orbit around the sun. It takes Jupiter approximately 4,332 days, 14 h, and 9
kogti [31]

1 year = 365 days.

1 day = 24 hours.

1 hour = 60 minutes.

First convert the hours and minutes in Jupiter orbit to days:

14*60 = 840 +9 = 849 minutes.

849 / 60 = 14.15 hours.

14.15 / 24 = 0.59 days.

Jupiter's orbit is 4332.59 days.

Now divide that by 365 for the number of years:

4332.59 / 365 = 11.87 years.

HELP ME ITS TIMED AND I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!
Olegator [25]

To find the gradient of a line we first hv to find the formula

so Gradient=√X1-x2and √y1-y2

((-2,1) and (0,-5)) line 1

line 2(0,-1) and (1,0)

first we will work for line 1

X1 is -2

X2 is -0

Y1 is 1

Y2 is -1

so y=x-1

so we substitute the values

1--1=-2--0

so,

1+1=-2+0

2=-2

-0

So the equation 1 line 1 is not true

we will now go to equation 2 line 2

the equation is 3x+y=-5

we substitute the values

3(-2--0)+1--1=-5

3(-2)+-2=-5

-6+-2=-5

-8= -5

group like terms

Ur answer should look like this -3

So the answer is 3x+y=-5
