The square of a number plus three times the number is 70. find the numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for that is

If we subtract over the 70, we have a quadratic that we can factor to solve for the values of x that will make that equation true.

Now we need the factors of 70 that will either add or subtract to give us the linear term of 3. The factors of 70 that will work are 10 and 7. 10 times 7 is 70, and 10 - 7 = 3:

and now we will factor by grouping:

and factor out what's common:

The factor (x + 10) is common, so we will now factor that out:

By the Zero Product Property, either x + 10 = 0 or x - 7 = 0, so x = -10 or 7

Those are the 2 numbers that will work.

simplifies to

100 - 30 which does in fact equal 70. OR

which simplifies to

49 + 21 which also equals 70.

So you're done!

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
