Answer:

2, -6

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 4x - 12

A = 1

B = 4

C = -12

i used the "X" method to solve for the solutions. i think it's easier than using the quadratic formula but it doesn't always work

for the "X" method you have to multiply your A value and your C value together so 1 x (-12) = -12. that is going to be the top part of the X

the bottom part of the x will be your B value which is 4

we have to find multiples of -12 that will also add to 4

so -2 and 6 multiply to -12 but also add to 4 so we know these numbers will work

i added added two drawings to show how i found the solutions using the "X" method and the quadratic formula

\ln 2 + \ln x = 5\\\\\implies \ln(2x) = 5\\\\\implies 2x = e^5\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{e^5}2 = 74.207

Answer:

after 10 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of months and y be the amount they still owe.

Sin Ian borrows $1000 from his parents, then the y-intercept b= 1000 since he owes $1000 when x = 0. He pays them back $60 each month The slope is then m = -60 . Substituting in b = 1000 and m = -60 into the slope-intercept form of a line then gives y= mx + b=-60x +1000.

Sin Ken borrows $600 from his parents, then the y-intercept b = 600 since he owes $600 When x= 0. He pays them back $20 per month so the amount he owes decreases $20 each month. The slope is then m = -20 . Substituting in

b= 600 and m = -20 into the slope-intercept form then gives y = mx +b = -20x + 600.

They will owe the same amount when they have the same y-coordinate. Therefore -60x+ 1000= y= -20x+600. Solve this equation for x:

-60x+ 1000 = -20x+ 600

1000 = 40x+ 600

400 = 40x

10=x

They will then owe the same amount after 10 months.

a) If a regular octagon and regular hexagon both have the same side lengths, which will have the greater area?​
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Octagon

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for a polygon is :

  • A = 1/2 x a x P
  1. a = apothem (distance from center to the midpoint of a side
  2. P = perimeter (sum length of the sides)

Since a regular octagon has 8 sides, and a regular hexagon has 6, the octagon will have the greater area due to greater perimeter.

What is the value of E?
kozerog [31]
Hello!

∠E and the angle measuring 119 degrees (we'll refer to this as ∠A) can be classified as supplementary angles. Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add to a sum of 180 degrees (a straight line). Therefore, we can conclude that sum of ∠E and ∠A is 180 degrees. We can use this information to create the following equation:

∠E + 119 = 180

Now subtract 119 from both sides of the equation:

∠E = 61

We have now proven that ∠E is equal to 61 degrees.

I hope this helps!
