-5 a root of the Quadraticequation n² - 8n-65 = o.What is the other root of theequation​

Mathematics
1 answer:
musickatia [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a quadratic equation meaning it has 2 factors and since one of it has root -5, the first factor is (n + 5),

So, we have (n + 5)(n + a) = n^2 + an + 5n + 5a

Thus, by comparison,

n^2 + (5 + a)n + 5a = n^2 - 8n - 65 = 0

5 + a = -8

5a = -65

a = -13

Thus, the other factor is (n -13) and root is 13

The area of a rectangle is
ANEK [815]
Area = length x width
length = 3 x width - 5

i.e. 50 = w(3w - 5)
3w^2 - 5w - 50 = 0
(3w + 10)(w - 5) = 0
w = -10/3 or w = 5
but width cannot be negative, hence
width = 5 yd
Length = 3 x 5 - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10 yd
