The average number of viewers over the two week is D. 4.85 x 10^5.

<h3>How to calculate the value?</h3>

It should be noted that the scientific notation simply has to do with writing of numbers that are either too large or too small. This will be illustrated thus:

In this case, the TV show had 5.6 x 10^5 viewers in the first week and 4.1 x 10^5 viewers in the second week.

Therefore, the average number of viewers over the two weeks will be:

= (5.6 × 10^5) + (4.1 × 10^5) / 2

= 4.85 × 10^5

Note that we had to divide by 2 since it's average.

Solve for x in the equation x squared + 2 x + 1 = 17.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

$x = - 1 + \sqrt{17}\\and\\x = - 1 - \sqrt{17}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

given equation

$x^2 +2x +1 = 17$

subtracting 17 from both sides

$x^2 +2x +1 = 17\\x^2 +2x +1 -17= 17-17\\x^2 +2x - 16 = 0\\$

the solution for quadratic equation

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ is given by

x = $x = -b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} /2a \\\\and \ \\-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} /2a$

________________________________

in our problem

a = 1

b = 2

c = -16

$x =( -2 + \sqrt{2^2 - 4*1*-16}) /2*1 \\x =( -2 + \sqrt{4 + 64}) /2\\x =( -2 + \sqrt{68} )/2\\x = ( -2 + \sqrt{4*17} )/2\\x = ( -2 + 2\sqrt{17} )/2\\x = - 1 + \sqrt{17}\\and\\\\x = - 1 - \sqrt{17}\\$
