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)

Can someone help me on this

A) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 5

B) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 4

C) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 3

D) 4⁰ = 4 ÷ 4 = 1

    4⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 4 = \frac{1}{4}

    4⁻² = \frac{1}{4} ÷ 4 = \frac{1}{16}

E) 3⁰ = 3 ÷ 3 = 1

    3⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 3 = \frac{1}{3}

    3⁻² = \frac{1}{3} ÷ 3 = \frac{1}{9}

Ken drove 174 miles in 3 hours. The equation y = 57x represents the distance in miles, y, Brenda drove in x hours. Determine who
ella [17]

To find Ken's speed divide total distance by total time:

174 miles / 3 hours = 58 miles per hour.


In the equation for Brenda, the 57 is the miles per hour because you would multiply that by x ( hours) to get total miles (y).


Ken had the faster driving speed.

What is the solution to the linear equation?
patriot [66]
Equation:  2/5 + p = 4/5 + 3/5p

Simplify Both Sides:
p + 2/5 = 3/5p + 4/5

Subtract 3/5p from both sides:
p + 2/5 - 3/5p = 3/5p + 4/5 - 3/5p

2/5p + 2/5 = 4/5

Subtract 2/5 from both sides:
2/5p + 2/5 - 2/5 = 4/5 - 2/5

2/5p = 2/5

Multiply both sides by 5/2

(5/2) * (2/5p) = (5/2) * (2/5)

p  =  1


Answer:  p  =  1





Hope that helps!!! (Answer:   Letter Choice (A),  p  =  1
