Answer: The answer is 8.
Step-by-step explanation: The first step is to convert the expression into figures. We shall call the unknown number Y. So if we are told “the square of a number,” that means Y squared, or better still, Y^2. Further we are told “the difference between the square of a number and 40” and that can be written as;
Y^2 - 40.
Next we are told that this expression is equal to 3 times that number (that is 3Y). That can now be written out as follows,
Y^2 - 40 = 3Y
If we move all expressions to one side of the equation, what we would have is,
Y^2 - 3Y -40 = 0
(Remember that when a positive value crosses to the other side of an equation it becomes negative and vice versa)
We now have a quadratic equation
Y^2 -3Y - 40 = 0
By factorizing we now have
(Y -8) (Y + 5) = 0
Therefore Y - 8 = 0 or
Y + 5 = 0
Hence, Y = 8 or Y = -5
Since we are asked to calculate the positive solution, Y = 8
Answer:
QR = 65.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Apply Law of Cosines to find QR:
p² = q² + r² - 2qr × Cos P
p = QR = ?
q = PR = 150 m
r = PQ = 120 m
P = 25°
Plug in the values
p² = 150² + 120² - (2)(150)(120) × Cos(25°)
p² = 22,500 + 14,400 - 36,000 × 0.9063
p² = 36,900 - 32,626.8
p² = 4,273.2
p = √4,273.2
p ≈ 65.4 m (nearest tenth)
QR = 65.4 m
1-0/-1-0 = -1
Y- 0 = -(x-0)
Y=-x
Y - 1 = -(x+1)
Y-1= -x-1
Y = -x
