What values of x make the equation x2 + 9x – 22 = 0 true? Check all that apply. –11 –2 0 2 11

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: x = 2 ; -11 .
___________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________
Given the equation:
_____________________________________________
x² + 9x − 22 = 0 ; Solve for: "x" ;
_____________________________________________

Let us factor the "left-hand side" of the equation:
_____________________________________________
"x² + 9x − 22" ;
_____________________________________________

What are the factors of "-22"" that add up to "positive 9" ?
_____________________________________________
Let us list the factors of "-22" :
____________________________________________
-2, 11; → -2 + 11 = 9 ;
-11, 2; → -11 + 2 = -9 ;
____________________________________________

So we have: "-2" and "11" ;
____________________________________________
So; "x² + 9x − 22" ; factors into " (x−2)(x + 11)" ;
____________________________________________
We have: (x−2)(x + 11) = 0 ;

So: x − 2 = 0 ;

Add "2" to each side of the equation;

x − 2 + 2 = 0 + 2 ;

x = 2 ;
___________________________________
x + 11 = 0 ;

Subtract "11" from each side of the equation;

x + 11 − 11 = 0 − 11 ;

x = -11 ;
___________________________________
Answer: x = 2 ; -11 .

What would be the total number of outcomes in each sample space?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

810

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case the sample space would be the number of combinations that can be made with the numbers from 1 to 30 with the letters of the alphabet, from "a" to "z", for example:

A1, A22, C4, F9, etc

Now we know how many numbers are 30, now the alphabet has 27 letters, therefore, the number of combinations are:

27 * 30 = 810

Which means that the total number of results is 810.

What is the only unknown (variable) needed to find the volume of a sphere?

yuradex [85]

Sphere

The radius of the sphere is the only unknown variable need to find the volume of a sphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sphere is a geometrical three dimensional round figure with every point on its surface equidistant from its center. It is a three dimensional representation of a circle. A line which connects from the center to the surface is called radius of the sphere.The diameter of the sphere is the longest straight line which passes through the center of the sphere.

The volume of sphere is given by:

Volume of sphere(V) = $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3} \\$
