Answer:
t = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
If one of the roots is "a", the equation can be factored as ...
(5x -a)(x -a) = 0
5x^2 -6ax +a^2 = 0
Comparing terms to the given equation, we see that ...
-6ax = -36x
a = 6 . . . . . . . . divide by -6
Then ...
a^2 = t
36 = t . . . . . . . substitute 6 for a
_____
The roots are 6 and 6/5.
Answer:
AB = 4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent and secant are drawn from an external point to the circle.
Then the square of the measure of the tangent is equal to the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant.
let AB = x, then
x(x + 5) = 6²
x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
However x > 0 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ b = 4 CM
Answer:
B. -3d + 47.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of them has $15.75
Each spent $d
Amount each still has = 15.75 - d
Therefore, total amount the 3 of them has = 3(15.75 - d) = 3*15.75 - 3*d
= 47.25 - 3d
Which is also am equivalent of -3d + 47.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Therefore ranking them from least to most:
