Answer:

The answer is x= 3,2

Step-by-step explanation:

So the equation can be written in the form of (x+a)*(x+b)

Where (x+a),(x+b) are factors of the equation.

So by expanding we get x^2+(a+b)x+ab.

By comparing the above equation with the given equation we get a+b=5, ab= 6

We know that (a-b)^2=(a+b)^2–4ab

So we get (a-b)^2=(5)^2–4(6)

(a-b)^2=25–24

(a-b)^2=1

(a-b)=+1 or -1

So a-b=+1 or -1

So a+b=5 and let a-b=1

Adding both equations we get 2a=6

So a=3 and substituting a in the above one of the equation we get b=2

Similarly by taking a-b=-1we get

a=2 and b=3

So the factors of the given equation are

(x+2) and (x+3)

Answer:

x= -2 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x^2+5x+6=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(x+2)(x+3)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0 or x+3=0

x=−2 or x=−3

just a rough estimate!

Calculate the distance between (0,3) and (3,10) to 1 decimal place
Artemon [7]
Alright, so the distance formula is sqrt((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2), and plugging that in, we get sqrt((0-3)^2+(3-10)^2)=sqrt((-3)^2+(-7)^2)=sqrt(9+49)=sqrt(58)=around 7.6

What are the solutions of x² + 6x - 6 = 10?
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: x=- 8 or x=2


Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you can applly the quadratic formula, which is shown below:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

2. The quadratic  equation is:

x^{2}+6x-6-10=0\\x^{2}+6x-16=0

3. Then:

a=1

b=6

c=-16

4. Therefore, when you substitute these values into the quadratic formula, you obtain the following result:

x=\frac{6+/-\sqrt{6^{2}-4(1)(-16)}}{2(1)}

x_1=-8\\x_2=2

Rudy invested $2460 in a money market account for 3 and 1/2 years. He earned $452 in simple interest. Which best represents the
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

B. 5 and 1/4 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

principal= $2460

time= 3 and 1/2 years= 3.5 years

SI= $452

Required

The rate

Step two:

we know that

SI= PRT/100

substituting our data we have

452= 2460*R*3.5/100

452=8610R/100

cross multiply

452*100= 8610R

divide both sides by 8610

45200/8610= R

R= 5.25%

R= 5 and 1/4 percent

Scale factor for a model is 15cm. Actual =55.5m. model. =25.25. What is the meter
Rasek [7]
We calculate for the actual length of the thing in the model that measures 25.25 by multiplying this value by the scale factor. That is,
                             (25.25 cm) x (55.5 m / 15 cm) = 93.425 m
Therefore, the real dimension of the object is approximately 93.43 m.
