Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 3x - 9 =0

By comparing with the equation ax^2+bx+c = 0,

we get,

a = 1, b=3, c = -9

we know the formula for x is,

x = (-b±√(b^2 - 4ac))/2a

x = (-3±√45)/2

x = (-3±3√5)/2

x = (-3+3√5)/2, (-3-3√5)/2

Answer:

2 solutions. x = -3/2 + 3/2 * sqrt(5) and x = -3/2 + -3/2 * sqrt(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Let's solve your equation step by step.</h3>

x^2 + 3x −9 = 0

For this equation: a=1, b=3, c=-9

1x^2 + 3x+ −9 = 0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=3, c=-9.

x = (-b ± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac})/2a

x = (-3 ± \sqrt{3^2 - 4(1)(-9)})/2a

x = (-3 ± \sqrt{45})/2

x = -3/2 + 3/2 * sqrt(5) or x = -3/2 + -3/2 * sqrt(5)

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

A. t - 5 < 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

Record low temperature for that date = 26°

Temperature at 10:00 PM = t

A fall in temperature by 5° = t - 5

Thus, this is said would mean the record low temperature would be breaking at this point, meaning the new temperature low recorded will be less than 26°.

In mathematical expression, this is expressed as;

t - 5 < 26°
