Chad is getting balloons for his grandmothers birthday party. He wants each balloon string to be 6 feet long. At The party store, string is sold by the yard. If chad wants to get 43 balloons, how many yards of string will he need?

258 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Chad wants each balloon string to be 6 feet long, and Chad wants to get 43 balloons, the number of yards of string that he will need will be calculated by multiplying 43 by 6. This will be:

= 43 × 6

= 258 yards of string

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
