Answer:
x = - 3 ± 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + 12x = 6 ( divide through by 2 )
x² + 6x = 3
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 3 + 9
(x + 3)² = 12 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
= ± 2
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 2
← exact solutions
Okay, so the answer is 5/9. “Someone” was correct. The subtracting of 100 from 225 came from the 100 already being used out of that 225. If you subtract that, you’re left with how much space left. Place those back into the fraction and simplify and you get our answer.
6x-6=7x-8
-6=x-8
2=x
Now that we know the value of x we plug in the value to solve CT .
CT =12
