What are the roots of this quadratic equation?-10x^2+12x-9=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ugo [173]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-10x² + 12x - 9 = 0

Multiply the whole equation by (-1)

10x² - 12x + 9 = 0

a = 10  ; b = -12 ; c = 9

D = b² - 4ac = (-12)² - 4*10*9

   = 144 - 360

    = -216

√D = √-216 = \sqrt{2*2 * 3 * 3 * 2 *3 * i^{2}}

       = 2*3*i*\sqrt{3*2}\\\\= 6i \sqrt{6}

Roots = \frac{-b + \sqrt{D}}{2a} ; \frac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}

          = \dfrac{-[-12]+6i\sqrt{6}}{2*10} \ ; \  \dfrac{-[-12] - 6i\sqrt{6}}{2*10}\\\\= \dfrac{12+6i\sqrt{6}}{20} ; \ \dfrac{12-6i\sqrt{6}}{20}\\\\\\= \dfrac{2*(6+3i\sqrt{6}}{20} ; \ \dfrac{2*(6-3i\sqrt{6}}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{6+3i\sqrt{6}}{10} ; \dfrac{6-3i\sqrt{6}}{10}

(−8* y^2−9*y)+(8*y^3+9*y^2−2*y) 
first, remove extraneous parentheses (or distribute if negative)
=−8* y^2−9*y+8*y^3+9*y^2−2*y  
then group terms in decreasing degree of y (variable)
=+8*y^3 −8* y^2+9*y^2  −9*y−2*y
simply expression by adding/subtracting similar terms
=+8*y^3 +y^2  −11*y
to give the final answer.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer :

Answer: Radius of a solid aluminium sphere is 3.67 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

4/3 · 2.57³ π · 7,860 = 4/3 · r³ π · 2,700  / : 4/3 π

2.57³ · 7860 = r³ · 2,700

r³ = 2.57³ · ( 7,860 : 2.700 ) = 2.57³ · 2.911111...    /∛

r ≈ 2.57 · 1.428 = 3.67 cm
