8 0

$x^2 + 18x=-79 \\ \\ x^2 + 18x+81=2 \\ \\ \boxed{(x+9)^2=2} \\ \\ x+9=\pm \sqrt 2 \\ \\ x=-9 \pm \sqrt{2} \\ \\ \boxed{x=-9+\sqrt{2}, -9-\sqrt{2}}$

Find the value of x.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

$2\sqrt{77}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem. $a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}$

a and b are the two side lengths

c is the hypotenuse (value across from the right angle)

Plug in the values that you are given.

$a^{2} +4^{2} =18^{2}$

Solve for x

$x^{2} =18^{2} -4^{2}$

$x^{2} =308$

x= $\sqrt{308}$

$x=2\sqrt{77}$

Sonja [21]

Answer:

b. Subtracting the base period amount from the analysis period amount, dividing the result by the base period amount, then multiplying that amount by 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change can be computed from ...

((new amount) -(old amount))/(old amount) × 100%

This best matches the description of choice B.

_____

<em>Comment on the answer</em>

The formula offered in the question will show the "percent change" from 100 to 103 as 3. It is not 3; rather, it is 3%. The final multiplication must be by 100% in order to arrive at the proper number.
