Alnitak, the star at the left side of Orion's belt, is 817 light years away. (A light year is the distance light travels in one Earth year, almost 6 trillion miles) Alnilam, the star in the middle of the belt, is 1340 light years away. And Mintaka at the right side of the belt is 916 light years away.

Solve (x + 3)2 + (x + 3) – 2 = 0. Let u = Rewrite the equation in terms of u. (u2 + 3) + u – 2 = 0 u2 + u – 2 = 0 (u2 + 9) + u –

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The solutions of the original equation are x=-5 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(x+3)^2+(x+3)-2=0$

Let

$u=(x+3)$

Rewrite the equation

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

Complete the square

$u^2+u=2$

$u^2+u+1/4=2+1/4$

$u^2+u+1/4=9/4$

rewrite as perfect squares

$(u+1/2)^2=9/4$

square root both sides

$(u+1/2)=\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)+\frac{3}{2}=1$

$u=(-1/2)-\frac{3}{2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Alternative Method</em>

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

so

$a=1\\b=1\\c=-2$

substitute in the formula

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(1)(-2)}} {2(1)}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{9}} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm3} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1+3} {2}=1$

$u=\frac{-1-3} {2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Find the solutions of the original equation</em>

For u=-2

$-2=(x+3)$ ----> $x=-2-3=-5$

For u=1

$1=(x+3)$ ----> $x=1-3=-2$

therefore

The solutions of the original equation are

x=-5 and x=-2
