I think what you meant was

(2x - 5)² = 11 -- (1)

Square root both sides of (1), i.e.

√(2x - 5)² = ± √11 -- (2)

From (2), we have

2x - 5 = ± √11 -- (3)

By adding 5 to both sides in (3), we have

2x = 5 ± √11 -- (4)

Divide both sides of (4) by 2, and we obtain

x = (5 ± √11)/2 -- (5)

From (5), the solution set of (1) is

x = (5 + √11)/2, (5 - √11)/2 ...Ans.

Taking square root on both sides, that becomes 2x - 5 = (+/-) √11

Then:

2x = (+/-)√11 + 5

x = [5 +/- √11 ] / 2

x = 5/2 +/- (√11)/2

That is, x = 5/2 +(√11)/2 and x = 5/2 - (√11)/2

Answer:

A. 3.0 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the graph,

velocity = Area of the graph

v =  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}

(y : position and x : time)

Let y1 = 2m and y2 = 14m,

t1 = 0s and t2 = 4s

v = (14 - 2)m/(4-0)s

= 12m/4s

= 3.0 m/s

There are 14 red, 10 yellow, 5 green, and 3 purple candies in a bag. What is the probability that a candy chosen at random is no
ch4aika [34]

Answer: 9/16

Work Shown:

14 red + 10 yellow + 5 green + 3 purple = 32 total

(32 total) - (14 red) = 18 that aren't red

18/32 = 9/16 is the probability of picking something that isn't red.
