Answer:

Assuming that the x2 is x squared, B

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)(1) + 5(1) - 6 = 1 + 5 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

(-6)(-6) + 5(-6) - 6 = 36 - 30 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve using factoring.

x²+5x-6=0

5 is the sum of the numbers, while -6 is their product.

Think: which two numbers add up to 5, but when multiplied, equal -6?

Those numbers are -1 and 6.

Now factor the polynomial:

(x-1)(x+6)=0

split into parts:

(x-1)=0

x-1=0

x=1

(x+6)=0

x+6=0

x=-6

So B

Hope this helps!

Una avioneta despega con un ángulo de elevación de 12° respecto al suelo si ha recorrido 48 metros en la misma dirección ¿a que

victus00 [196]

Answer: 9.98 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle = 12°

Displacement = 48 m

The height, or displacement in the y-axis will be equal to the opposite cathetus of a triangle rectangle where the hypotenuse is the displacement, then we can find that the displacement in the y-axis is:

h = sin(12°)*48m = 9.98m

What is the value of (9^7) ^3/14, in simplest terms? a0

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

27.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is one property of exponents that for any numbers a, b, and c

$(a^b)^c=a^{bc}$

Therefore, using this property the expression $(9^7) ^{3/14}$ becomes

$(9^7) ^{3/14} =9^{(7*\frac{3}{14} )}$ .

and when when simplify the exponents, we get:

$9^{(\frac{21}{14} )}= 9^{\frac{3}{2} }= (9^{\frac{1}{2} })^3$ .

Since for any number $a^\frac{1}{2} =\sqrt{a}$ ( $\dfrac{1}{2}$ in the exponent means the square root) , $(9^{\frac{1}{2} })^3$ is rewritten as

$(\sqrt9} )^3$

which simplifies to

$(\sqrt9} )^3=3^3 =\bold{27}$

Thus,

$\boxed{ (9^7) ^{3/14}=27}$
