What is the solution set to the inequality 5(x - 2)(x + 4) > 0?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Butoxors [25]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

You selected the correct answer: {x | x <<em> </em>-4 or x > 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 2)(x + 4) > 0

Use FOIL method to expand (x - 2)(x + 4):

5(x^{2} + 2x - 8) > 0

Distribute 5 into (x^{2} + 2x - 8)

5x^{2} + 10x - 40 > 0

Divide all terms by 5 from both sides of the inequality:

\frac{5x^{2}}{5}  + \frac{10x}{5}  - \frac{40}{5} > \frac{0}{5}

x^{2} + 2x - 8 > 0

Factor the trinomial:

(x + 4) ( x - 2)  > 0

x < -4 or x > -2

Therefore, the solution set to the inequality is {x | x < -4 or x > 2}

<em>Interval notation:  </em>(-∞, -4) ∪ (2, ∞)

15/17. The value (ratio) of cos A is 15/17.

The trigonometric ratios of an acute angle are, basically, the sine, the cosine and the tangent. They are defined from an acute angle, α, of a right triangle, whose elements are the hypotenuse, the leg contiguous to the angle,  and the leg opposite the angle.

-The sine of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the hypotenuse.

-The cosine of the angle is the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse.

-The tangent of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the adjacent leg or, which is the same, the sine of the angle divided by the cosine of the angle.

cos A = adjacent leg/hypothenuse = BC/AC = 15/17

What is the slope-intercept equation of a line with slope 2.5 and y-intercept -8?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

y = 2.5x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2.5 and c = - 8 , then

y = 2.5x - 8 ← equation of line

Which of the following lines of Shelly's "On the Medusa of Leonardo Da Vinci in the
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

A: Tis the melodious hue of beauty thrown  .

Explanation:

An appeal to the sense of hearing and sight will be something that presents an act that gives the readers a sense of the sounds in the writing. While an appeal to the sense of sight will present an image or a form of the picture to the readers. These types of sense appeals are used by writers to engage their readers' interest and keep them hooked.

In Percy Bysshe Shelly's poem "On the Medusa of Leonardo Da Vinci in the Florentine Gallery", the poet talks about the goddess Medusa but most importantly talks about the painting of "Medusa" by Da Vinci. The poem structured in the iambic pentameter scheme presents an image of Medusa and also how she was depicted by Da Vinci in his work. Out of the given options from the second stanza of the poem, the line that appeals to the sense of hearing and sight is<u><em> "Tis the melodious (hearing/ sound) hue of beauty thrown (sight)".</em></u>

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
