Answer:

First, we bring the equation to the form ax²+bx+c=0, where a, b, and c are coefficients. Then, we plug these coefficients in the formula: (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) . See examples of using the formula to solve a variety of equations.

That 6 should be -6

Let me solve it for you

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 2x-x-6=0

So

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=\dfrac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(2)(-6)}}{2(2)}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=\dfrac{1\pm \sqrt{1+48}}{4}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=\dfrac{1\pm 7}{4}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=\dfrac{8}{4}\:or\:\dfrac{-6}{4}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=2\:or\:\dfrac{-3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all, your teacher wrote nonsense in the answer options : an area is always given in squared units. never in cubed units (which would be volume).

the area is : 1/2 × perimeter × apothem

the perimeter is simply 12 × 5 = 60 meters.

apothem = (a/2)×cot(pi/12) = 5/2 × cot(pi/12) =

= 9.330127019... meters

so the area is

1/2 × 60 × 9.330127019... = 279.9038106... m²

therefore, the third answer option is correct (although it is m², and not m³).

by the way, you have question 3 wrong. I answered this with the correct apothem calculation in the explanation for question 4.

Ms.Graves gave her class 12 minutes to read. Carrie reads 5 1/2 pages in that time. At what rate, in pages per hour, did Carrie
miv72 [106K]

Answer: 27.5 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, first you make the 12 minutes into an hour (times by 5), then times the pages she read (5.5) by 5, which is 27.5, so she reads 27.5 pages per hour, you can also use 27 and a half pages per hour.

The point (3,0) lies on the graph of P(x)=x^3-7x^2+15x-9. True or False​
swat32

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

We can plug in and see.

If (3,0) is on the graph of P, then P(3) will evaluate to 0.

Let's try it:

P(3)=(3)^3-7(3)^2+15(3)-9

P(3)=27-7(9)+45-9

P(3)=27-63+45-9

P(3)=-36+45-9

P(3)=9-9

P(3)=0

Since P(3)=0, then (3,0) is an ordered pair of P.

Determine the general solution of:<br><br> sin 3x - sin x = cos2x
SpyIntel [72]
Sin³ x-sin x=cos ² x

we know that:
sin²x + cos²x=1  ⇒cos²x=1-sin²x
Therefore:

sin³x-sin x=1-sin²x
sin³x+sin²x-sin x-1=0

sin³x=z

z³+z²-z-1=0

we divide by Ruffini method:
              1     1     -1     -1
        1           1      2      1                z=1
-------------------------------------
              1     2      1      0
       -1         -1      -1                       z=-1
--------------------------------------
              1     1       0                       z=-1

Therefore; the solutions are z=-1 and z=1

The solutions are:
if z=-1, then
sin x=-1   ⇒x= arcsin -1=π+2kπ    (180º+360ºK)   K∈Z


if z=1, then
sin x=1   ⇒ x=arcsin 1=π/2 + 2kπ   (90º+360ºK)   k∈Z

π/2 + 2kπ    U   π+2Kπ=π/2+kπ     k∈Z    ≈(90º+180ºK)

Answer: π/2 + Kπ    or     90º+180ºK          K∈Z
