X2+2x-15=0
2x+2x-15=0
4x-15=0
4x=15
so answer is x= 15/4

Answer:

x = - 5, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 5 and - 3 , since

5 × - 3 = - 15 and 5 - 3 = + 2, so

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

(x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

Determine the volume of the figure. Use 3.14 for π. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Show all of your work.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

1985 cubic units (written as un. with the cubed exponent)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the volume of the cylinder

Here's the formula:

$V=\pi r^{2}h\\V=volume\\r=radius\\h=height$

Now, you plug in and solve.

$V=(3.14)(7.2^{2})(7.4)\\V=(3.14)(51.84)(7.4)\\V=(162.7776)(7.4)\\V=1204.55424\\rounded:\\V=1204.6$

Then, you find the volume of the dome.

Here's the formula:

$volume/of/a/sphere=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\\volume/of/a/dome:\\V=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^{3} \\V=volume\\r=radius$

Now, you just plug in and solve.

$V=(\frac{2}{3})(\pi)(r^{3})\\V=(\frac{2}{3})(3.14)(7.2^{3})\\V=(\frac{2}{3})(3.14)(373.248)\\V=(2.093)(373.248)\\V=781.208064\\rounded:\\V=781.2$

Finally, you add them together, and there's your answer!

$1204.6+781.2=1985.8$

Hope this helped!
