Flauer [41]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

x = -5 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 6 from both sides to get x²+4x-5=0

2. Factor the quadratic equation. Find two numbers that have a sum of 4 and a product of (-5). The numbers 5 and (-1) add to 4 and multiply to get -5

3. The factored equation is (x+5)(x-1)=0

4. Set each factor to equal zero and solve for x.

x+5=0 ... x=-5

x-1=0 ... x=1

Identify the graphical solution to the inequality

NeTakaya

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve absolute value inequalities you must solve it for when the absolute value is positive and then when it is negative

example, |4| = 4 and -4

first solution will be when we're solving for the positive value:

+(-4x+7) ≥ 27

-4x + 7 ≥ 27

-4x ≥ 20

x ≤ -5 [reverse the symbol when mult or div by a negative]

-(-4x+7) ≥ 27

4x - 7 ≥ 27

4x ≥ 34

x ≥ 34/4 or x ≥ 8 1/2

solution: x ≤ -5 or x ≥ 8.5

The diameter of a cylindrical construction pipe is 4ft If the pipe is 17ft long, what is its volume? Use the value 3.14 for /pi,

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

213.52 cubic ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of pipe = 4ft

radius for circle is half of diameter

thus radius of pipe = 1/2 of 4ft = 2 ft

length of pipe = 17 feet

volume of cylinder is given by $\pi r^2l$

where r is the radius and l is the length of cylinder

thus volume of pipe is calculated below using above values

$volume \ of \ pipe = \pi r^2l\\volume \ of \ pipe = \3.14* 2^2*17 \\volume \ of \ pipe = 213.52$

volume of pipe is 213.52 cubic ft.
