Important: 35x2 12x − 36 is not an equation; to obtain an equation, you must set <span>35x2 12x − 36 = to 0:
</span><span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0. Also, "the square of x" must be represented by "x^2," and you must insert either the + or the - sign in front of the term 12x.
I am assuming that you meant </span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0.
If that is indeed the case, then a = 35, b = 12 and c = -36
and the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or (12)^2 - 4(35)(-36) = 5184.
Since the discriminant is positive, this equation has 2 real, unequal solutions. They are
-12 plus or minus sqrt(5184)
x = -----------------------------------------
2(35)
We will have to use proportions:
Cross multiplying we get
Now divide:
Solve to tenths place we get

Answer:
B) 0.85
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, complementary angles add to 90 degrees.
The given angle 58 degrees is complementary to 90-58 = 32 degrees. The two angles 58 and 32 add to 90.
Therefore, cos(32) = 0.848 = 0.85
