Answer:

\fbox{\begin{minipage}{9em}x = -2 and x = -6\end{minipage}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x^{2} + 8x + 12 = 0

Solve for:

x

Solution:

Step 1: Select the formula to solve for x

There are some ways to solve quadratic equations.

One of the simple way (if possible) is performing the factorization.

Another way is using the quadratic formula.

Here, we are going to use factorization.

Step 2: Perform factorization

      x^{2} + 8x + 12 = 0

<=>x^{2}  +  2x + 6x  + 12 = 0

<=>(x^{2} + 2x) + (6x + 12) = 0

<=>x(x + 2) + 6(x + 2) = 0

<=>(x + 2)(x + 6) = 0

<=> x = -2 or x = -6

Hope this helps!

Pls help how do i solve for x in this equation??
evablogger [386]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Square both sides
x^2 +3x + 6 = x^2
2. Subtract x^2 from both sides
3x + 6 = 0
3. Subtract 6 from both sides and divide by 3
x = -2

An animals heart beats 80 beats per minute how many minutes does it take to beat a million times?
Klio2033 [76]

The key calculation in this problem is figuring out <em>how many times 80 goes into 1,000,000</em>. I'll build up in steps here.

80 x 5 = 400. This gives us a building block on our way to 1,000,000. From here, we can go further and say that 400 x 5 = 2,000; that 2,000 x 5 = 10,000; and finally that 10,000 x 100 = 1,000,000. Altogether, starting from 80, that's

80 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 100 = 80 x 25 x 500 = <em>80 x 12,500</em>

So, since 80 goes into one million 12,500 times, it takes 12,500 minutes for the animal's heart to beat that 1,000,000 times.
