First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now

2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4

At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real. 

Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result. 

For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196

No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.

So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to

x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values

Yesterday, 64% of the 6th grade students chose to drink chocolate milk with their lunch. What fraction of 6th grade students Did
Talja [164]

Answer:

\frac{9}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract 100 and 64. To find how many didn't choose to drink chocolate milk.

100-64=36

Percentages put into fractions will be Percentage over 100.

So, the fraction will be \frac{36}{100}. Now simplify.

\frac{36}{100}=\frac{18}{50} =\frac{9}{25}

A. Write two explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences.
IgorLugansk [536]

Explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences are derived from terms in arithmetic sequences. It helps to find each term in arithmetic progression easily. The arithmetic progression is a1, a2, a3, ..., an. where the first term is denoted as 'a', we have a = a1, and the tolerance is denoted as 'd'. The tolerance formula is d = a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = an - an - 1. The nth term of the arithmetic progression represents the explicit formula for the arithmetic progression.

Explicit formula: an= a + (n − 1) d

Explicit formula: Sn = n/2 [2a+(n-1) d]

Where,

nth term in the arithmetic sequence

a = first term in the arithmetic sequence

d = difference (each term and its term difference) previous term, i.e., d = an-an-1
