Answer:
A= x=5 or x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-3x-10=0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply together to give you -10 and add together to give you -3
-5*2 = -10
-5+2 = -3
(x-5) (x+2) =0
Using the zero product property
x-5 =0 x+2 =0
x-5+5=0+5 x+2-2=0-2
x=5 x=-2
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
13/10 - 1 = .3
1 - 3/4 = .25
.3 > .25
You want the smaller answer. 3/4
The slop of the line is Y=6x+7
-- "Perimeter" means all the way around, all four sides.
-- That's two lengths and two widths.
-- So one length and one width is half of the perimeter.
-- If the perimeter is 16-ft, then one length + one width is 8-ft.
-- If the width is 5-ft, then the length is (8 - 5) = 3-ft.
Answer:
x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the triangles are similar, you can divide the sides and equal the results:
24/6 = 10/x
24•x/6 = 10
24•x = 10•6
24•x = 60
x = 60/24
x = 2.5
