Answer:

x=\frac{-7-\sqrt{5}}{2} or x=\frac{-7+ \sqrt{5}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

(2x+3)^2+8(2x+3)+11=0

Let us treat this as a quadratic equation in (2x+3).

where a=1,b=8,c=11

The solution is given by the quadratic formula;

(2x+3)=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

We substitute these values into the formula to obtain;

(2x+3)=\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{8^2-4(1)(11)} }{2(1)}

(2x+3)=\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{64-44} }{2}

(2x+3)=\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{20} }{2}

(2x+3)=\frac{-8\pm2\sqrt{5} }{2}

(2x+3)=-4\pm \sqrt{5}

(2x+3)=-4-\sqrt{5} or (2x+3)=-4+ \sqrt{5}

2x=-3-4-\sqrt{5} or 2x=-3-4+ \sqrt{5}

2x=-7-\sqrt{5} or 2x=-7+ \sqrt{5}

x=\frac{-7-\sqrt{5}}{2} or x=\frac{-7+ \sqrt{5}}{2}

In triangle NLM, point S is the centroid, QS = (3x – 5) cm, and NS = (4x) cm. What is NS? 5 cm 10 cm 20 cm 30 cm
son4ous [18]

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ S is the centroid of ΔNLM

∴ S divides NG at ratio 1 : 2 from the base

∴SQ = 1/2 NS

∴3x - 5 = 1/2 (4x)

∴3x - 5 = 2x

∴3x - 2x = 5

∴x = 5

∴ NS = 4 × 5 = 20 cm
