Factor by using the rational roots test, and find that -2 is a root.
Replace X with -2 and simplify each term.
Divide the polynomial by (x+2)
The final answer becomes x = -2 and x = -1/2 +/-√3/2i
The first choice is the correct one.
(a) the given triangle is a isosceles triangle, therefore the two leg sides will be congruent, as well as the two base angles. It is given that one of the base angles ∠XYW is 70°, therefore, due to the law of a isosceles triangle, the measurement of ∠XWY is also 70°. Remember, a triangle's interior angles add up to 180°, so:
180 - (70 + 70) = 180 - 140 = 40
40° is your answer.
m∠X = 40°
(b) All sides are congruent, making it a equilateral triangle. If it is a equilateral triangle, then all the angles also have the same measurement. The total of the interior angle's measurement is 180°. Divide by the amount of angles, 3:
180/3 = 60
60° is your answer.
m∠V = 60°

Styline menswear ordered short-sleeve shirts for $23 each and long-sleeve shirts for $28.50
short-sleeve shirts for $23
long-sleeve shirts for $28.50
Total cost = $9,862.50
Let x be the number of short - sleeve
and y be the number of long - sleeve
Total shirts = 375
x + y = 375
23x + 28.50y = 9862.50
Now we solve for x
x + y = 375 ( subtract x on both sides)
So y = 375 - x
Now plug in 375 -x for y in second equation
23x + 28.50y = 9862.50
23x + 28.50(375 - x ) = 9862.50
23x + 10687.5 - 28.50x = 9862.50
subtract 10687.5 from both sides
23x - 28.50x = -825
-5.5x = -825 (divide -5.5 on both sides)
x = 150
So number of short-sleeve = 150
