Answer:

x=4+2\sqrt{3}

x=4-2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Completing the square</u>

when  ax^2+bx+c=0

Given equation:

3x^2-24x+40=28

Subtract 40 from both sides:

\implies 3x^2-24x=-12

Divide both sides by 3:

\implies x^2-8x=-4

Add the square of half the coefficient of x to both sides:

(\frac{b}{2})^2=(\frac{-8}{2})^2=16

\implies x^2-8x+16=-4+16

Factor the left side and simplify the right side:

\implies (x-4)^2=12

Square root both sides:

\implies x-4=\pm\sqrt{12}

Add 4 to both sides and simplify the radical:

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4 \cdot 3}

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}

\implies x=4\pm2\sqrt{3}

Write the square of the binomial as a polynomial: (-1 1/3p + 6q)^2
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

\frac{16}{9}p² -16pq + 36q²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)²

= (- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

- \frac{4}{3}p(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q) + 6q(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)

= \frac{16}{9}p² - 8pq - 8pq + 36q² ← collect like terms

= \frac{16}{9}p² - 16pq + 36q²
