SOLVE FOR x: 4x^2+6x=10
1 answer:
Happy Holidays! =)
4x² + 6x = 10
Move 10 to the other side so we can factor the trinomial:
4x² + 6x - 10 = 0
Factor the GCF, or 2 out of the equation:
2(2x² + 3x - 5) = 0
Factor the terms inside of the parenthesis:
2(2x + 5)(x - 1) = 0
Disregard the coefficient of 2 and set each factor equal to 0:
2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
The values of x are -5/2 and 1.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we want to find this probability:
Because they want the area to the left of the value. We need to remember that the normal standard distribution have a mean of 0 and a deviation of 1.
We can use the following excel code: =NORM.DIST(-1.55,0,1,TRUE)
And we got:
The other possibility is use the normal standard table and we got a similar result.
Answer:
The coordinates of the centroid are (0, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle whose vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2), and (x3, y3) are ( ,
)
In Δ ABC
∵ A = (-20, 0), B = (0, 15), C = (20, 0)
∴ x1 = -20, x2 = 0, x3 = 20
∴ y1 = 0, y2 = 15, y3 = 0
∴ The centroid = ( ,
) = (
,
) = (0, 5)
∴ The coordinates of the centroid of Δ ABC are (0, 5)
In Δ DBE
∵ D = (-15, 0), B = (0, 15), E = (15, 0)
∴ x1 = -15, x2 = 0, x3 = 15
∴ y1 = 0, y2 = 15, y3 = 0
∴ The centroid = ( ,
) = (
,
) = (0, 5)
∴ The coordinates of the centroid of Δ DBE are (0, 5)
In Δ FBG
∵ F = (-5, 0), B = (0, 15), G = (5, 0)
∴ x1 = -5, x2 = 0, x3 = 5
∴ y1 = 0, y2 = 15, y3 = 0
∴ The centroid = ( ,
) = (
,
) = (0, 5)
∴ The coordinates of the centroid of Δ FBG are (0, 5)
∵ The three triangles are symmetric about the y-axis
→ That means they have the same centroid and it lies on the y-axis
∴ The coordinates of the centroid are (0, 5)
