6* 6x = 12 ;  in which "x" represents the "unknown number".

This is how we could write the expression.
________________________________________________
Now, to solve for "x":
________________________________________________
 6 * 6x = 12 ;

36x = 12 ;

Now, divide each side of the equation by "36" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation;  and to solve for "x" ;

36x / 36 =  12 /36 ;

x = 0.5 ;  or, write as:  " ½ " .

The sum of a number and its square is 182. Find the number.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

13 and -14 satisfy this condition

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent that number as x

and the square of x is x^2

So,

x + x^2 = 182

Subtract 182 from both sides

x + x^2 - 182 = 182 - 182

x + x^2 - 182 = 0

rearrange the quadratic equation

x^2 + x -182 = 0

let's use the quadratic formula

\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}       or      \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

a = 1, b = 1, c = -182

\frac{-1+\sqrt{1^2-4*1*(-182)} }{2*1}       or     \frac{-1-\sqrt{1^2-4*1*(-182)} }{2*1}

\frac{-1+\sqrt{1+728} }{2}      or         \frac{-1-\sqrt{1+728} }{2}

\frac{-1+\sqrt{729} }{2}            or    \frac{-1-\sqrt{729} }{2}

\frac{-1+{27} }{2}     or    \frac{-1-{27} }{2}

\frac{26}{2}     or    \frac{-28}{2}

13 or    - 14

Lets check

13 + 13^2 = 13 + 169

= 182

Also,

-14 + (-14^2) = -14 + 196

= 182

Use the following problem to answer the question below:
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

m∠ABD = m∠CBE ⇒ by subtracting a common angle from the given angles

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ m∠ABE = m∠CBD

∵ m∠ABD = m∠ABD + m∠DBE

∵ m∠CBD = m∠CBE + m∠EBD

∵ ∠EBD is common angle between them

∴ m∠ABD = m∠CBE

19. A $50 bottle of perfume holds 8 ounces. A $110 bottle holds 17 oz. Find the unit price for
jok3333 [9.3K]
50 divided by 8 = 6.25
1oz perfume = $6.25
110 divided by 17 = 6.4705
1oz perfume = $6.4705
Therefore the second option is cheaper

Factor f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 – 24x + 5 into linear factors given that - 5 is a zero of f(x).15f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 - 24x + 5 =(Factor c
Basile [38]

If x=-5 is a zero, then the first factor of the polynomial would be (x + 5 )

To find the other two factors we can divide the polynomial by the expression (x+5).

Using synthetic division, we have:

-5 I 4 15 -24 5 (Coefficients of the dividend)

I -20 25 -5 (Multiplying each coefficient by the results of the substraction and adding)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4 -5 1 0 (Coefficients of the quotient)

The result of the division is 4x^2 - 5x + 1. Factoring it, we have:

4x^2 - 4x -x + 1 (Separating -5x into -x and -4x)

4x (x - 1) - (x -1) (Factoring each pair of terms)

(x-1)(4x-1) (Factoring using the common factor)

So the answer would be:

(x + 5 )(x-1)(4x-1)

(3x - 2)³= <br>gives the solution pls.​
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

27x^3 - 54x^2 + 36x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x - 2)^3

= (3x - 2) (3x - 2) (3x - 2)

= 27x^3 - 54x^2 + 36x - 8

Hope this helps :)
