The answer is 4a - 12 so b.
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
The temperature dropped 8 degree, resulting in a negative change. So the integer to represent it would be negative 8 degrees.
rewrite the equation set = to 0.
x^2 + 5x - 8 = 0
The quadratic will not factor so you have to use the quadratic formula.
x = (-b + - sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/2a
x = (5 + - sqrt(25 - 4* 1* -8))/2
x = (5 + - sqrt 57)/2
The x2is not the same as 2x. It is x^2. X tot he second power which makes the problem a quadratic equation. You cannot combine the terms x^2 and -5x because they so not have the same power.
1. Plug in -3 for a
14-(-3)^2
14-9
5
Final answer: 5
2. 15 more than r=15+r (notice the keyword more) equals 61
Final answer: r+15=61
