Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + x=2
Subtract 2 from each side
x^2 + x-2=2-2
x^2 + x-2=0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to -2 and add to 1
2*-1 = -2
2+-1 =1
(x-1)(x+2)=0
Using the zero product property
x-1 = 0 x+2 = 0
x=1 x = -2
Product of the roots
1*-2 = -2
This is a question that can be solved with Pythagorean Theorem since it is a right triangle. The longest side, 29, is the hypotenuse and the sides 21 and x are the legs. So, the Pythagorean Theorem states,
Where,
c is the Hypotenuse, a and b are the legs. Putting the respective values gives us,
So, 20 is the side length of x.
ANSWER: 20
Let the three numbers be x, y and z respectively, then
x + y + z = 62 . . . (1)
y = x - 4 . . . (2)
z = 4x . . . (3)
The above three expressions could be used to represent the numbers.
Solving the three equations, putting (2) and (3) into (1) gives
x + x - 4 + 4x = 62
6x - 4 = 62
6x = 62 + 4 = 66
x = 66/6 = 11
x = 11.
y = 11 - 4 = 7
z = 4(11) = 44
x = 11, y = 7, z = 44.
Use Order of Operations!! Remember PEMDAS!
P: Parentheses first
E: Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
MD: Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)
AS: Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)
7+25•4 (multiply 25 by 4 first)
7+100 (then add 7 to 100)
107
So your final answer would be 107
Hope this helped and I hope you have an awesome day!! :D
