2x^2+8x-3=-1 Solve by completing the square.

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

step 1. Halve everything

x^2+ 4x - 0.5 = 0

step 2. Halve the coefficient of x so you can write down an equivalent for x² + 4 (that is, (x + 2)^2 - 4 )

(x + 2)² - 4.5 = 0

step 3. Isolate the squared term:

(x + 2)^2 = 4.5

step 4. Take square roots of both sides, recognising that a square root can be positive or negative:

x + 2 = ±√4.5

step 5. Make x explicitly

x = -2 ±√4.5

And there you are with two solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

How many numbers are from k to n? (Including k and n.)
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

<em>n</em> - <em>k</em> + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is assuming (because you did not say) that <em>n</em> and <em>k</em> are integers and <em>n</em> is greater than <em>k</em>.

Example: from 2 to 5 {2, 3, 4, 5} includes 5 - 2 + 1 = 4 numbers.

Example: from -6 to 4 includes 4 - (-6) + 1 = 11 numbers, namely {-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}
