Let the unknown number be x.

5/11 * x = 55

Since x is being multiplied by 5/11, and you want x alone, you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/11 which 11/5.

11/5 * 5/11 * x = 55/1 * 11/5

x = 605/5

x = 121

Answer: The number is 121.

The quadratic equation 2x^2 + bx + 18 = 0 has a double root. Find all possible values of b.
Doss [256]
When a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c has a double root, the discriminant,
D=b^2-4ac=0
Here 
a=2,
b=b,
c=18
and 
D=b^2-4ac=b^2-4*2*18=0 
solve for b
b^2-144=0
=> b= ± sqrt(144)= ± 12

So in order that the given equation has double roots,  the possible values of b are ± 12.

A direct variation function contains the points( -8,-6) and (12,9). Which equation represents the function ?
natulia [17]

Answer:

y = (3/4)x

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  Find the slope of the line.  As we go from ( -8,-6) to (12,9), x increases by 20 and y increases by 15.  Thus, the slope, m, is m = rise / run = 15/20 = 3/4

2) Recognize that the y-intercept is zero (0) because this is direct variation; the line goes thru the origin.

3) write the equation of the line:  y = mx + b becomes y = (3/4)x

Use the long division method to find the result when 2 x 3 + 7 x 2 + 14 x + 12 2x 3 +7x 2 +14x+12 is divided by 2 x + 3 2x+3
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

2 x 3 + 7 x 2 + 14 x + 12÷ 2x+ 3 = <u> x² +2x+ 4  </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply the first term 2x of the divisor with a term ( quotient) to get the first term of the dividend. Then we multiply the same term with each term of the divisor  and subtract it from the dividend. The process continues unless we get the zero or a much smaller number than the dividend as the remainder

              <u>  x² +2x+ 4                        </u>

2x+3    ║2 x 3 + 7 x 2 + 14 x + 12

               2x³ + 3x²

     <u>            -      -       </u>

                         4x² +14x+12

                          4x²+ 6x

                    <u>     -        -      </u>

                                   8x+12

                                     8x+12      

                               <u>    -        -   </u>
