-12 + 6x = 6 + 5(x - 2) Please help and EXPLAIN

Mathematics
1 answer:
icang [17]2 years ago

Answer: x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 5(x) and 5(-2)

-12 + 6x = 6 + 5x + (-10) OR 5x - 10

Flip if you'd like

6x - 12 = 6 + 5x - 10

Combine like terms

6x−12=(5x)+(6+−10)

6x - 12 = 5x - 4

Subtract 5x from both 6 and 5

6x - 5x = 5x - 5x

5x cancels out, so you're left with x, 12, and -4

x - 12 = -4

Add 12 to 12 and -4

12 + 12 = -4 + 12

12 cancels out

-4 + 12 = 8

x = 8

What are the center and radius of the circle defined by the equation x^2 + y^2 -6x + 8y + 21=0
NeTakaya

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x²-6x)+(y²+8y)=-21

(x²-6x+9)+(y²+8y+16)=-21+9+16

(x-3)²+(y+4)²=4

center=(3,-4),radius=√4=2

qaws [65]

v = hvh

Simplifying the above equation:

v = h × v × h

Taking the RHS 'v' to LHS

⇒ v ÷ v = h × h

⇒ 1 = h × h

⇒ 1 = h^{2}

⇒ h = √1

⇒ h = \left \{ {{h=1} \atop {h=-1}} \right.

So h can have the values +1 or -1.

Putting h = +1 in the equation,

v = (+1) × v × (+1)

⇒ v = v

Hence, v can take any integer value.

Putting h = -1 in the equation, when h = 1.

v = (-1) × v × (-1)

⇒ v = v

Hence, v can take any integer value when h = -1.

Hence, as long as h is either +1 or -1, v can take any integer value.

Explain the connection between factors of a polynomial, zeros of a polynomial function, and solutions of a polynomial equation.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solutions, zeros, and roots of a polynomial are all the same exact thing and can be used interchangeably.  When you factor a polynomial, you solve for x which are the solutions of the polynomial.  Since, when you factor a polynomial, you do so by setting the polynomial equal to 0, by definition of x-intercept, you are finding the zeros (don't forget that x-intercepts exist where y is equal to 0). There's the correlation between zeros and solutions.  

Since factoring and distributing "undo" each other (or are opposites), if you factor to find the zeros, you can distribute them back out to get back to the polynomial you started with.  Each zero or solution is the x value when y = 0.  For example, if a solution to a polynomial is x = 3, since that is a zero of the polynomial, we can set that statement equal to 0: x - 3 = 0.  What we have then is a binomial factor of the polynomial in the form (x - 3).  These binomial factors found from the solutions/zeros of the polynomial FOIL out to give you back the polynomial equation.
