The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.

When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:

x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25
(x+2.5)² = 8.25

Take the square root of both sides:
√(x+2.5)² = √8.25
x + 2.5 = 2.87

Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"
x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5
x = 0.37

We have to take the positive and negative values for solutions, however, since a square root has both positive and negative answers.

Answer:

When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:


x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25

(x+2.5)² = 8.25


Take the square root of both sides:

√(x+2.5)² = √8.25

x + 2.5 = 2.87


Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"

x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5

x = 0.37

What are the solutions of 12 – x2 = 0?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

x = ± 2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

12 - x² = 0 ( add x² to both sides )

12 = x² or

x² = 12 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ±\sqrt{12}

  = ± \sqrt{4(3)} = ± 2\sqrt{3}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle\  \lim_{n \to a} \dfrac{\sqrt{2x}-\sqrt{3x-a} }{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{a}} =\frac{0}{0} \\\\we\ can \ use\ Hospital's\ Rule\\\\\\f(x)=\sqrt{2x}-\sqrt{3x-a}  \qquad  f'(x)=\dfrac{2}{2*\sqrt{2x}} -\dfrac{3}{2*\sqrt{3x-a}} \\\\g(x)=\sqrt{x} -\sqrt{a}  \qquad g'(x)=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} \\\\\\\displaystyle\  \lim_{n \to a} \dfrac{\sqrt{2x}-\sqrt{3x-a} }{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{a}} =\lim_{n \to a} \dfrac{\dfrac{2}{2*\sqrt{2x}} -\dfrac{3}{2*\sqrt{3x-a}}  }{\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} }\\\\

\displaystyle \lim_{n \to a} \dfrac{2\sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{2x}} -\dfrac{3*\sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{3x-a}}  =\lim_{n \to a} \dfrac{2 }{\sqrt{2}} -\dfrac{3*\sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{3x-a}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{2}} -\dfrac{3*\sqrt{a} }{\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{2}} -\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\\\=-\ \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\

Which of the following examples best represents the use of an interval scale? measuring the number of cookie boxes sold by scout
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four type of scales in mathematics. They include:

1. Nominal scale : they do not measure quantity. they are used to classify a population into two or more scales that are exhaustive and mutually exclusive. e.g. classifying a population based on gender, naming the different car brands seen in a school's parking lot

2. Ordinal scale : this scale measures ranks a population from best to worst or from least to most. e.g. ranking the participants of a race based on their performance

3. Interval scale : this scale has the property of order and equal intervals. Zero is not meaningful.

Interval scale is used when the difference between the numbers are meaningful. e.g. students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent Here a child who is scored 1, did very poorly and a child scored 5, performed excellently well.

4. Ratio scale :  this scale has the property of order, a meaningful zero and equal intervals.
