Answer:
x ≈ - 5.32, x ≈ 1.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 4x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )
x² + 4x = 7
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 7 + 4
(x + 2)² = 11 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 2 = ±
( subtract 2 from both sides )
x = - 2 ± 
Thus
x = - 2 -
≈ - 5.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
x = - 2 +
≈ 1.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation: this is easy lol
20 * .10 = 2 <em>(2 = 10% of 20)</em>
20 + 2 = 22
20 x .07 = 1.4 <em>(1.4 = 7% of 20)</em>
20 + 1.4 = 21.4
The price of a 20$ haircut with a 10% tax would be $22.
The price of a 20$ haircut with a 7% tax would be $21.40.
Answer:
B. BD = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply set the 2 equations equal to each other (both are congruent due to perpendicular bisector):
6x + 3 = 3x = 6
3x + 3 = 6
3x = 3
x = 1
Then substitute 1 for <em>x</em> in BD
6(1) + 3
6 + 3
BD = 9
