<h2><u>☯ Given</u></h2>

\normalsize\sf\ x^2 - 3x - 10 x

<h2><u>☯ To find </u></h2>

\normalsize\sf\ Roots \: of \: Equation

\underline{\bigstar\:\textsf{By \: using \: Quadratic \: formula:}}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{-(-3) \pm \sqrt{(3)^2 - 4 \times\ 1 \times\ (-10)}}{2 \times\ 1}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 - (-40)}}{2}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 + 40}}{2}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{49}}{2}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{3 \pm 7}{2}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{ 3 + 7}{2} \: \: or \: \: \frac{3 - 7}{2}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = \frac{\cancel{10}}{\cancel{2}} \: \: or \: \: \frac{\cancel{-4}}{\cancel{2}}

\normalsize\ : \implies\sf\ x = 5 \: \: or \: \: -2

\normalsize\ : \implies{\underline{\boxed{\sf \red{ x = 5 \: \: or \: \: -2}}}}

\therefore\:\underline{\textsf{Hence, \: the \: value \: of \: x \: is}{\textbf{\: 5 \: or \: -2}}}

\underline{\bigstar\:\textsf{By \: using \: Middle \: term \: factorization:}}

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ x^2 - 5x + 2x - 10 = 0

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5) = 0

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ (x - 5)(x + 2) = 0

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ (x - 5) = 0 \: or \: (x + 2) = 0

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ x = 0 + 5 \: or \: x = 0 - 2

\normalsize\dashrightarrow\sf\ x = 5 \: or \: x = -2

\normalsize\dashrightarrow{\underline{\boxed{\sf \red{x = 5 \: or \: -2}}}}

\therefore\:\underline{\textsf{Hence, \: the \: value \: of \: x \: is}{\textbf{\: 5 \: or \: -2}}}

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 6 and rolling doubles?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Rolling a sum of 6: 5/36 or 13.9% chance

Rolling double: 1/6 or 16.7% chance

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of rolling a sum of 6:

1 + 5

2 + 4

3 + 3

4 + 2

5 + 1

So there are 5 chance of getting a sum of 6 in total of 36 probability outcomes. So there would be 5/36 or 13.9% chance of rolling a sum of 6

Probability of rolling a double:

1 and 1

2 and 2

3 and 3

4 and 4

5 and 5

6 and 6

So there are 6 chance of getting a double in total of 36 probability outcomes. So there would be 6/36 = 1/6 or 16.7% chance of rolling doubles.

Hope this help :3

DeShawn is 38 years old and is married with 3 children, ages 2, 4, and 6. He makes $45,000 a year and is planning to retire when
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

DeShawn would have more money in the long run if he invested in the 20-year endowment

DeShawn already makes $45,000 yearly, which makes him rich enough to purchase the 20 year endowment plans, the 20 year life plan won't be wise, because it last for 20 years, and this will end before he retires, 38 + 20 = 58 and once it ends, no payment will be made if he's still alive, so what if something happens to him in the 2 years inbetween the end of the 20 year term plan and his retirement? That's where the plan doesn't favor him and his family, but the 20 year endowment plan once it's finished, he will be paid the sum assured to him, plus bonuses, and his family will be covered if something happens to him in the 2 years inbetween the end of the 20 year endowment plan and his retirement

Bob wants to rent a car for one day. He contacted two companies. Enterprise Rentals charges $100 plus $3 per mile. Hertz Rental
spayn [35]

Answer:

20 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will have to set two expressions representative of Enterprise Rentals & Hertz Rental equal to each other.

Let m equal the number of miles.

If Enterprise Rentals charges $100 plus $3 per mile, we can represent this as:

100+3m

If Hertz Rental charges $8 per mile, we can represent this as:

8m

Set the expressions equal to each other:

8m=100+3m

Subtract 3m from both sides of the equation:

5m=100

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of m, which is 5:

m=20

Therefore, after 20 miles, the total cost for both companies will be the same.

_

Check your work by substituting the solved value of m (20), into the initial equation:

8(20)=100+3(20)

160=100+60

160=160

As the total costs are equal to each other, our answer is correct!
