Since the constant has been moved to the left side, you can move on to the next step which is adding (b/2)² to both sides of the equation.

h² + 14h + (14/2)² = -31 + (14/2)²

Simplify the parenthesis and exponent.

h² + 14h + 7² = -31 + 7²

h² + 14h + 49 = -31 + 49

h² + 14h + 49 = 18

Factor the expression of the left.

(h + 7)(h + 7) = 18

Take the square root of both sides.

√(h + 7)(h + 7) = ± √9 • 2

(h + 7) = ± 3√2

h + 7 = ± 3√2

Subtract 7 from both sides.

You solutions are:

h = -7 + 3√2 → -2.7573 → -2.76

h = -7 - 3√2 → -11.2426 → -11.24

Given   <span>H^2+14h=-31, let's complete the square of the 1st two terms:

h^2 + 14h + (14/2)^2  =  -31 + (14/2)^2

  h^2 + 14h + 49   =   -31 + 49 = 18

   (h+7)^2 = 18

Taking the sqrt of both sides,

h+7 = sqrt (9*2) = 3 sqrt(2)

Solving for h,    h= -7 plus or minus 3 sqrt(2)    (answer)</span>

4(PX+1)=64 what is the value of x in terms of p and what is the value of x when p is -5 ?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

4(PX+1)=64\\\\p= -5

Substitute -5 for p in the given equation and solve

4(-5(x)+1)=64\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}4\\\frac{4\left(-5x+1\right)}{4}=\frac{64}{4}\\\\Simplify\\-5x+1=16\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\-5x+1-1=16-1\\\\Simplify\\-5x =15\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-5\\\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{15}{-5}\\\\Simplify\\x = -3

The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer. Find the two integers.
Minchanka [31]

The small number is 2.

The large number is 3.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.

  • x be the small integer.
  • x+1 be the large integer.

The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer

The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)

It is given that,

  • The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
  • This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
  • Here, the small integer is represented as x.

<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>

(2x+1) = 3x-1

Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,

3x-2x = 1+1

x = 2

Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.
