Use Quadratic equation to solve
a2 -4a - 4 = 0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 2 ± 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1

b = -4

c = -4

x = (-b ± [tex]\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}[/tex]) / 2a

x = (-(-4) ± [tex]\sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(-4)}[/tex]) / 2(1)

x = (4 ± [tex]\sqrt{16 +16}[/tex]) / 2

x =  (4 ± 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]) / 2

x = 2 ± 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Your variable being solved is a so a = 2 ± 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Which is the area between the x-axis and y=x from x=1 to x=6

Answers

Answer:

I am going to answer using calculus. Let me know if you instead were looking for an algebraic method. Take the definite integral from 3 to 6 of xdx. [x^2/2]3 to 6= 18-(9/2)= (36-9)/2= 27/2. The area is 27/2

Find the value of x.

Answers

So you know that all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180. Therefore, you can make this equation:

[tex](-20x+3)+(-40x+18)+(-15x+9)=180[/tex]

And now just solve for x!

[tex]-75x+30=180\\-75x=160\\x=\frac{160}{-75}\\x=-2.4[/tex]

So, your answer is:

x = -2.4

The value of X
X = -2.4

If 5x - 2y = 6 and 3x + 2y = 10, then find the value of x and y.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\textsf{\large{\underline{Solution}:}}[/tex]

Given Equations:

→ 5x - 2y = 6 ----- (i)

→ 3x + 2y = 10 ---- (ii)

Adding (i) and (ii), we get:

→ 8x = 16

→ x = 16/8

→ x = 2

Substituting the value of x in (i), we get:

→ 5 × 2 - 2y = 6

→ -2y = 6 - 10

→ -2y = -4

→ y = -4/-2

→ y = 2

Therefore:

→ (x, y) = (2, 2) (Answer)

[tex]\textsf{\large{\underline{Verification}:}}[/tex]

Put x = 2 and y = 2 in first equation, the LHS becomes:

= 5 × 2 - 2 × 2

= 10 - 4

= 6

= RHS

Put x = 2 and y = 2 in second equation, the LHS becomes:

= 3 × 2 + 2 × 2

= 6 + 4

= 10

= RHS

Hence, our answer is correct (Verified)

Use the point-slope formula to write an equation of the line that passes through (-5, -4) and (3, -1).
Write the answer in slope-intercept form (if possible).

Answers

Answer:

point slope form: y + 4 = 3/8 (x + 5)       slope intercept: y = 3/8x - 17/8

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-1 - (-4) / 3 - (-5)

slope = 3/8

y + 4 = 3/8 (x + 5)

y = 3/8x + b

-1 = 3/8(3) + b

-1 = 9/8 + b

-17/8

y = 3/8x - 17/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation, y = (1/3)x - 4, has already been solved for y.  To compare the slopes easily, we need now to solve the first equation for y, obtaining y = (1/3)x - 4.

We see that these two lines have the same slope, m = 1/3, and thus conclude that these lines are PARALLEL.

On Monday, Ken spent half of his money on
a new game. The next day he earned
$12 mowing lawns. He now has $32. How much money did Ken have before he
bought the game?

Answers

Answer:

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

2(32-12)=40

hope this helps

X = his money
Y = half of his money
X = 2Y & Y = 1/2X

He earned $12 mowing lawn, and that, added to the other half of his money gives $32

As an equation, 32 = Y + 12
So Y = 32 - 12 if we takeaway 12 from both sides.
Therefore, Y = 20 and since X = 2Y, X = 2 x 20 which gives 40
Ken initially had $40
