Quadratic formula is x = -b+ or- sq rt b^2-4ac / 2a
a=2 b=5 c=-3
-5 +or- sqrt 5^2-4(2)(-3) / 2(2)
-5 +or- sqrt 49/ 4
-5 + 7 /4 = 2/4 = 1/2
-5 - 7 /4 = -12/4 = -3

Factoring a*c is 2*-3 =-6
Factors of -6 that add to 5 are 6 and -1
Split 5x into +6x-1x
2x^2+6x-1x-3 and group
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)
(x+3)(2x-1)=0
x+3=0 gives x=-3
2x-1=0 gives x=1/2

3. r = -8

4. x = -5

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

2(-5r + 2) = 84

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>r</u></em>

  1. Divide 2 on both sides:                    -5r + 2 = 42
  2. Subtract 2 on both sides:                 -5r = 40
  3. Divide -5 on both sides:                    r = -8

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in r into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>r</em>:                   2(-5(-8) + 2) = 84
  2. Multiply:                             2(40 + 2) = 84
  3. Add:                                   2(42) = 84
  4. Multiply:                             84 = 84

Here we see that 84 does indeed equal 84.

∴ r = -8 is a solution of the equation.

<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>

264 = -8(-8 + 5x)

<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide both sides by -8:                    -33 = -8 + 5x
  2. Add 8 to both sides:                          -25 = 5x
  3. Divide 5 on both sides:                      -5 = x
  4. Rewrite:                                               x = -5

<u>Step 6: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in<em> x</em>:                    264 = -8(-8 + 5(-5))
  2. Multiply:                               264 = -8(-8 - 25)
  3. Subtract:                              264 = -8(-33)
  4. Multiply:                               264 = 264

Here we see that 264 does indeed equal 264.

∴ x = -5 is a solution of the equation.

ABCD is a trapezium AD and BC are parallel
Orlov [11]

Part (a)

<h3>Answer:  12.1</h3>

-----------------------

Work Shown:

We'll apply the sine rule since we have a known opposite side of AB = 10 and an unknown hypotenuse we want to find BD.

Focus on triangle ABD

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(D) = AB/BD

sin(56) = 10/x

x*sin(56) = 10

x = 10/sin(56)

x = 12.062179

x = 12.1

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

===================================================

Part (b)

<h3>Answer:  15.1</h3>

-----------------------

Work Shown:

Draw an xy coordinate grid.

Place point A at the origin (0,0).

Point B is 10 units above this, so B is at (0,10).

Point C is at (18,10) since we move 18 units to the right of B.

Point D is at approximately (6.745085, 0). The 6.745085 is from solving tan(56) = 10/x for x.

Refer to the diagram below.

Apply the distance formula for the points C and D.

C = (x_1,y_1) = (18,10)\\\\D = (x_2,y_2) \approx (6.745085,10)\\\\

d = \text{ distance from C to D}\\\\d = \sqrt{ (x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\\\d \approx \sqrt{ (18-6.745085)^2+(10-0)^2}\\\\d \approx \sqrt{ 226.673112 }\\\\d \approx 15.055667\\\\d \approx 15.1\\\\

Segment CD is roughly 15.1 cm long.
