Which is the same solution a x2-16x+12 =0
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

An equation which has the same solution as the given equation is:

( x - 18 ) ( x + 2 ) + 48 = 0 ....

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

x2-16x+12

Break the constant term:

x^2-16x-36 +48=0

[x^2-16x-36] +48=0

Now break the middle term inside the brackets

(x^2-18x+2x-36)+48=0

Take the common

[x(x-18) +2(x-18)]+48=0

(x-18)(x+2)+48=0

Thus an equation which has the same solution as the given equation is:

( x - 18 ) ( x + 2 ) + 48 = 0 ....

Two similar pyramids have base areas of 122 cm? and 16 cm? The surface area of the larger pyramid is 56 cm
Komok [63]

Answer:

42.7 cm sq.

Step-by-step explanation:

small/large = 16 / 122

16/122 = S / 56

S = 56 * (16/122) = 7.34...

however not in the choice

ah ha..

You meant :    12.2 sq. cm :  16 sq. cm  = small / large

so   12.2 / 16 = S / 56 cm

S = 42.7 sq. cm
