Could you explain why the answer 125 was supposed to be negative while my answer 81 was correct?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Realize what (-5)^3 means

(-5)(-5)(-5)

25(-5)

-125

meanwhile

(-9)^2 is

(-9)(-9)

81

Basically a negative times a negative is always positive, but when a negative number is cubed (or raised to any odd exponent for that matter) the product will be negative.

True, -4 seems bigger because 4 is bigger than 3 but it's negative and is further away from 0

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if this is the right way to so it, but I would do it like this

since a triangle has 180 degrees, the angles all have to add up to 180

So 180 = a + b + c

we already know a, its 95

So 180 = 95 + b + c

now we know the equation for b, so we'll just put it there instead of the b, and since the angles are the same, we should put it instead of c too

180 = 95 + (4x-15) + (4x-15)

now subtract 95 from both sides

85 = (4x-15) + (4x-15)

add the xs and numbers together

85 = 8x - 30

now add the 30 to both sides

115 = 8x

divide by 8

your x is 14 3/8 or 14.375 or 115/8

that's not your angle, that's your x

X^2 -3x + 0 = 0 Factor and solve
Luda [366]
So if you subtract the 0 out from the left side, the equation is now x^{2}-3x=0. Since a x is common in both of the terms on the left side, you can factor it out, now making the equation look like x(x-3)=0. When factoring, each of the separate things (x and (x-3)), must equal zero while the other one doesn't matter. So in order for the equation to be 0, the only potential options for x is 0 and 3. Therefore x=0 and x=3 are the two solutions
