Answer: x = -2 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0
(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
The area of the triangle will then be 9 times as great.
The formula of the area of a triangle is 1/2bh, so if the base has been tripled and the height has been tripled, you're essentially multiplying 3 to the original equation twice (3 x 3 = 9).
ANSWER
672cm²
EXPLANATION
The area of a regular hexagon is given by the formula,

where a=14cm is the apothem and p=96cm is the perimeter of the regular hexagon.
We substitute the values into the formula,


Therefore the approximate area of the hexagon is 672cm²
Exponential functions are related to logarithmic functions in that they are inverse functions. Exponential functions move quickly up towards a [y] infinity, bounded by a vertical asymptote (aka limit), whereas logarithmic functions start quick but then taper out towards an [x] infinity, bounded by a horizontal asymptote (aka limit).
If we use the natural logarithm (ln) as an example, the constant "e" is the base of ln, such that:
ln(x) = y, which is really stating that the base (assumed "e" even though not shown), that:

if we try to solve for y in this form it's nearly impossible, that's why we stick with ln(x) = y
but to find the inverse of the form:

switch the x and y, then solve for y:

So the exponential function is the inverse of the logarithmic one, f(x) = ln x
Based on the percentage that passed English and those who passed Mathematics and those who failed and passed both, the total number of students who appeared in the examination are 60 students.
The number of students who passed only in Math are 12 students.
<h3>What number of students sat in the exam?</h3>
This can be found as:
= Total who passed English only + Total who passed Math only + Total who failed both + Total who passed both
Assuming the total is n, the equation becomes:
n = 0.75n - 21 + 0.55n - 21 + 21 + 0.05n
n = 1.35n - 21
21 = 0.35n
n = 21 / 0.35
= 60 students
The number who passed mathematics only is:
= (60 x 55%) - students who passed both
= 33 - 21
= 12 students
