4 x^2 + 20 x + 25 = 7
Divide both sides by 4:
x^2 + 5 x + 25/4 = 7/4
Write the left-hand side as a square:
(x + 5/2)^2 = 7/4
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 5/2 = sqrt(7)/2 or x + 5/2 = -sqrt(7)/2
Subtract 5/2 from both sides:
x = sqrt(7)/2 - 5/2 or x + 5/2 = -sqrt(7)/2
Subtract 5/2 from both sides:
Answer:  x = sqrt(7)/2 - 5/2 or x = -5/2 - sqrt(7)/2

-8x - 46 = -6x - 8
-8x + 6x = -8 + 46
-2x = 38
x = -19

The equation:
-8x - 46 = -6x - 8

The solution:
x = -19

- 18 = -3x + 6<br> Plz help
exis [7]

Answer:

8 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

- 18 = -3x + 6

Subtract 6 from each side

-18-6 = -3x+6-6

-24 = -3x

Divide each side by -3

-24/-3 = -3x/-3

8 =x

The equation y 16t 2 18t 405 describes the height in feet of a ball thrown downward at 18 feet per second from a height of 405 f
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Ball hits the ground after 4.5 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a -1, so that the leading coefficient is positive

So our quadratic is

-1 \times (16t^2 +18t -405)

The key coefficients of two binomial variables can be 1 and 16, or 2 and 8, or 4 and 4, for the leading coefficient of 16.

Yet they can't actually be 4 and 4 because the linear (x) term coefficient has to be a multiple of 4, which it isn't and leading coefficients 1 and 16 on the binomial factors is not likely.

So, 2 and 8 taken as the leading coefficients of  two binomial factors.

For constant  405, possible factorizations are (81\times 5, 27 \times 15, 9 \times 45).

(16t^2 +18t -405) = (8t + 45) (2t - 9)

Taking first factor, thus we find  negative value for given time t. But  second time equivalent to zero gives the value of 4.5 for t

Thus ball hits the ground after 4.5 sec
