Answer:

2x^2+5x-1=0

ax^-bx+c=0

b^2-4ac = 5^2-4(2)(-1) =33

Explain how to find the exact value of sin(570°).

Lena [83]

Quick answer Sin(570) = - 1/2
Comment
570 as an angle contains 1 complete revolution of the terminal arm. The terminal arm begins at the origin and the other (in this case swings around until it records 570° turning around the x axis in an anticlockwise direction.

Anticlockwise means going from 12 o'clock to 9 o'clock to 6 o'clock then 3 o'clock and back to 12 o'clock.

What is 570° (∅) degrees equivalent to?
We keep on subtracting 360 until we get a number between 0 and 360 inclusive.

Written this way 0 ≤∅≤360
570 - 360 = 210°

So we need to find the equivalent of 210°

Method
210° = 180° + 30°
This means that ∅ is 30° below the x axis in the 3rd quadrant.

Sin(30) = 1/2
In the third quadrant, the sine is minus. so
sin(210°) = - 1/2 <<<<<<< Answer

Write an equation of a line containing (2, -3) and perpendicular to 3x+4y=14 answer

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the condition of perpendicularity, if two lines must be perpendicular to each other, the product of their gradient rather the slope must be equaled to ( -1 ).

Equation of a line ; y = mx+ c, where m1 is the gradient of the line and c us the point of intersection if the line on the y- axis.therefore, the equation

3x + 4y = 14, when re arranged, now becomes, 4y = -3x + 14, divide through by 4, gives, y = -3x/4 + 14.

Therefore, m1, = -3/4 and m2, = 4/3 going by the condition. Since the line passes through the coordinate of (2,3), where x = 2, and y = -3, then, substitute for x and y in y = mx+ c, minding the m2, to find C, therefore,

-3 = 4/3x2 + c. -3 = 8/3 +c

Multiply through by 3 to make it a linear equation,

-9 = 8 + 3c; -9 - 8 = 3c, -17= 3c

c = -17/3.Now substitute for c in the equation ,y = mx+ c, the equation now becomes, y = 4x/3 - 17/3. Therefore the new equation is

3y = -4x - 17.

Find the difference. express your answer in simplest form. (2s/s^2-4s+4) - (4/s^2-4s+4)

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

To find the difference, we are going to destroy the parenthesis first, and then, we are going to perform the operations. Remember that to destroy a parenthesis preceded by a negative sign (-), you should change the signs of the factors inside the parenthesis:
$\frac{2s}{s^2-4s+4} -( \frac{4}{s^2-4s+4} )$
$\frac{2s}{s^2-4s+4} -\frac{4}{s^2-4s+4}= \frac{2s-4}{s^2-4s+4}$

Now we can factor both numerator and denominator and simplify:
$\frac{2s-4}{s^2-4s+4} = \frac{2(s-2)}{(s-2)^2} = \frac{2}{s-2}$

We can conclude that the difference in simplest form is: $\frac{2}{s-2}$

Define like terms. Please and thank you.

Step2247 [10]

Like terms: in the case of exponents, the same exponents for different numbers
Like 7x and 8x are like terms.
5x and 6x^2 would be unlike terms
Get it??
Good luck~~
