4b²+20b+25=0
Divide everything by 4
b²+5b+ 6.25=0
use the quadratic formula
x= (-b+ or - √b²-4ac) /2a
x= (-5 + or - √5²-4*1*6.25) /2(1)
x= -5/2 so
in this case, b= -5/2
Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.
(3) 62.5% cuz u take the total number of the students and u divide it by the number of students between 60 to 65
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation plot in the coordinates of the points to see if they fit the equation.
5x-3y < 30
A) 5(-3) -3(5) < 30
-15 -15 < 30
-30 < 30 This is true
B) 5(0) -3(0) < 30
0 - 0 < 30
0< 30 This is true
C) 5(-5) - 3(3) < 30
-25 - 9 < 30
-34 < 30 This is also true
D) 5(3) - 3(-5) < 30
15 + 15 < 30
30 < 30 This is not true because 30 is not greater that 30
Answer:
x=8.2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, figure out which trig function you are going to use.
In this problem you are dealing with the opposite side to the angle and the hypotenuse, and if you remember SOH CAH TOA, this requires sine.
sin (55) =opposite/hypotenuse
sin (55) =x/10
multiply both sides by 10 to get 10 * sin (55) = x
10 * sin (55) = 8.2
