How do you factorize p2 + 2p - 3 =0
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

p2 + 2p + -3 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-3 + -1p)(1 + -1p) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-3 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

-3 + -1p = 0

Solving

-3 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + -1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + 3

-1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3

-1p = 3

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = -3

Simplifying

p = -3

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(1 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

1 + -1p = 0

Solving

1 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + -1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + -1

-1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1

-1p = -1

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = 1

Simplifying

p = 1

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

When you reverse the digits in a certain 2 digit number you decrease its value by 81. What is the number if the sum of its digit
arlik [135]

Answer: 90 is a number which has 9 as the sum of its digits, 9+0=9 and if the digits are reversed, 09 is 81 less than 90.

Step-by-step explanation: Since the number must be a 2-digit number, it seems that 90 is the only number that qualifies.

If you need some equations, here is a way to set up a system to solve:

x+y= 9 rewrite to get a value for y to substitute:

y = 9-x

10x +y = 10y + x + 81 rewrite by moving (subtracting variable terms from both sides)

10x -x + y-10y = 81 combine like terms

9x - 9y = 81

Substitute for y and solve for x

9x - 9(9-x)= 81 distribute.

9x - 81 + 9x = 81

18x = 162. 162/18 = 9

x = 9

Substitute in the original equation to solve for y

9 + y = 9

y = 0

10(9) + 0 = 10(0) + 9 +81

90 - 81 = 09

A B C D and F are questions about the picture please help!!
Lyrx [107]
I'm going to separate this into sections so it makes more sense for you to read. For the problems with π where you have to round, ask your teacher where to round, unless your textbook specifies it:

A – 100 cm^2

To calculate area of squares, you multiply l • w. It's a square, so all sides are equal, and since we know that one side = 10 cm, the area is 10 • 10 = 100

B – πr^2         (not sure if the r shows up very well, so I'm retyping it in words - pi • radius squared)

C – 25π cm^2 or an approximate round like 78.54 cm^2 (ask your teacher about this – it could be to the nearest tenth, hundredth, etc.)

To find the area of a circle, you must follow the formula πr^2. In this case, the diameter is 10. The radius is half the diameter, so to substitute the values you must find 10 ÷ 2 = 5. So the radius is 5 cm. From there you can substitute r for 5, ending up with π • 5^2.    5^2 = 25, so the area is 25π, or about 78.54, depending on where the question wants you to round.

D – An approximate round (to the nearest hundredth it is 21.46 cm^2)

To find the area of the shaded region, just subtract the circle's area from the square's area, or 100 – 25π ≈ 21.46. Again, though, ask your teacher about where to round, unless your textbook specifies it.

E – dπ      (diameter • pi)

F – 10π cm^2 or an approximate round like 31.42 cm^2

The diameter is 10. 10π ≈ 31.42

Hope this helps!
