Step-by-step explanation:
3x² + 22x + 35 = 0
(3x + 7)(x + 5) = 0
3x + 7 = 0
x = -7/3
or x+5 = 0
x = -5
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 4x
b = x + 2
c = 3x + 4
Solution
(4x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (3x + 4)^3 Remove all the brackets.
16x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Collect like terms on the left
17x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Subtract the terms on the right
8x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
This factors into
(4x - 12)(2x + 1)
There are 2 answers
4x - 12 = 0
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
or
2x + 1 = 0
2x = - 1
x = - 1/2
You have to look at x = -1/2 carefully. The problem is that 4x = 4*(-1/2) = - 2 which is not possible in Euclidean Geometry.
So the only answer is x = 3
Answer:
1st option
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the difference of the given matrices, we just need to subtract the corresponding elements of the two matrices as shown below:
Thus, 1st option gives the correct answer
The correct answer is:
C. They are similar because the corresponding sides of kites KELY and BRAD all have the relationship 2:1.
Using the distance formula,
the lengths of the sides of BRAD are:
The lengths of the sides of KELY are:
Each side of KELY is twice the length of the corresponding side on BRAD. This makes the ratio of the sides 2:1 and the figures are similar.
