Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : the algebraic expression x - 21.5

a. 21.5 decreased by x

the expression becomes 21.5 - x

b. x more than 21.5

more than means we add , so expression becomes 21.5 +x

c. 21.5 minus x

For minus we use subtraction symbol,

so the expression becomes 21.5 -x

d. x less 21.5

x less 21.5 , we subtract 21.5

so the expression becomes x - 21.5 . that is the given expression

Solve the equation by completing the square round to the nearest hundredth is necessary x^2-x-7=0
masha68 [24]

The answers are 3.19 or -2.19.

In order to complete the square, you must first get the constant to the other side of the equation. WE do that by adding 7 to both sides.

x^2 - x - 7 = 0

x^2 - x = 7

Now we must take half of the x coefficient (-1), which would be -.5. Then we square it and add it to both sides. This is the second step to any completing the square problem.

x^2 - x = 7

x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25

Now that we have done that, the left side will be a perfect square so that, we can factor it.

x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25

(x - .5)^2 = 7.25

After having done that, we can take the square root of both sides

(x - .5)^2 = 7.25

x - .5 = +/-\sqrt{7.25}

Now we can take the value of that square root and solve.

x - .5 = +/-\sqrt{7.25}

x - .5 = +/-2.69

x = .5 +/- 2.69

And with the + and - both there, we need to do both to get the two answers.

.5 + 2.69 = 3.19

.5 - 2.69 = -2.19

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the graph of 28x-7y=9 that passes through the point at (4,1)
kifflom [539]

If it is perpendicular to the line 14x-7y=4, then we know our line has the opposite and inverse slope of that line. Solving for y of the first line, we get y=2x-(4/7). All we care about is the coefficient of the x term, because that will give us our slope. The slope of the first line is 2, so the slope of out line is the opposite and inverse of that slope, which -(1/2).

Plugging into our slope- point formula, where y1=(-9), x1=2, and m=(-1/2), then:

y-(-9)=(-1/2)(x-2)

y+9=(-1/2)x+1

y=(-1/2)x-8
