What is the solution of the equation? (√2x-1) + 2=x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gwar [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

√(2x − 1) + 2 = x

√(2x − 1) = x − 2

2x − 1 = (x − 2)²

2x − 1 = x² − 4x + 4

0 = x² − 6x + 5

0 = (x − 1) (x − 5)

x = 1 or 5

Check for extraneous solutions.

√(2(1) − 1) + 2 = 1

√(1) + 2 = 1

3 = 1

No solution

√(2(5) − 1) + 2 = 5

√(9) + 2 = 5

5 = 5

x = 5

Answer:

  $66

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be convenient to assign a different variable to the amount of money each spent. We can call the amounts spent by Seedevi, Georgia, and Amy "s", "g", and "a", respectively.

The problem statement tells us ...

  s = (1/2)g

  s = a +6

  s + g + a = 258

__

The problem statement asks for the amount Seedevi spent, so we need to find the value of s. It is convenient to write the other variables in terms of s:

  g = 2s

  a = s -6

Then the sum is ...

  s + (2s) +(s -6) = 258

  4s = 264 . . . . . . . . . . . add 6, simplify

  s = 66 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4

Seedevi spent $66.

A What fractions can you find that are equivalent to 2/3?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

4/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction 4/6 is equal to 2/3 when reduced to lowest terms. To find equivalent fractions, just multiply the numerator and denominator of that reduced fraction (2/3) by any integer number, i.e., multiply by 2, 3, 10, 30... 4/6 is equivalent to 2/3 because 2 x 2 = 4 and 3 x 2 = 6 6/9 is equivalent to 2/3 because 2 x 3 = 6 and 3 x 3 = 9
