Solve for x with steps.

Mathematics
1 answer:
kiruha [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

no real solution is the answer

If you have to list your extraneous solutions somewhere, that would be x=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cool thing here is the radical, the thing with the square root, is already isolate.

So we need to square both sides as a first step.  (Whenever you raise both sides to even power, you must definitely check your solutions as some might not actually be solutions to the original equation)

So upon squaring both sides I get:

x^4+16=(x^2-4)^2

Now I will write (x^2-4)^2 as (x^2-4)(x^2-4) and foil it!  This gives me:

x^4+16=x^4-8x^2+16

Subtract x^4 and 16 on both sides:

       0=-8x^2

Divide both sides by -8

      0=x^2

Therefore x=0.

0 isn't actually a solution though because when you plug it in you get 4=-4 which is not true.

1st question: Reuben received 80 dollars. Write a signed number to represent this change.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

1) +80

2) -1520

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive Signed numbers are used in real world situations to indicate the increase. Examples include; increase in weight, deposit of money into an account, increase in income, profit, height above sea level, etc. They are all represented by positive signed numbers.

Whereas, negative signed numbers show decrease. Examples include; loss of weight, withdrawal of money from an account, loans, liabilities, losses, temperature below zero degrees, height below sea level.

1) We are told that Reuben received 80 dollars. Thus, it means he received an increase in the amount of money he already had. Thus, the signed number will be +80.

2) We are told that A car corporation produced 1520 fewer cars this month than last.

Thus, the signed number will be negative since there is a decrease in number of cars.

Thus, signed number = -1520
