Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square. =+x^2+16x +61=0

1 answer:

3 0

X^2 + 16x + 61 = 0
x^2 + 16x = -61
x^2 + 16x + 64 = -61 + 64
(x + 8)^2 = 3
x + 8 = (+-) sqrt 3
x = -8 (+-) sqrt 3

x = -8 + sqrt 3...and x = -8 - sqrt 3 <== ur solutions

$\bf \begin{array}{llll} \textit{logarithm of factors} \\\\ log_a(xy)\implies log_a(x)+log_a(y) \end{array}~\hfill \begin{array}{llll} \textit{Logarithm of rationals} \\\\ log_a\left( \frac{x}{y}\right)\implies log_a(x)-log_a(y) \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}$

$\bf \log_{12}\left( \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{2}~~}{8w} \right)\implies \begin{array}{llll} \log_{12}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)&-&\log_{12}(8w)\\\\ \log_{12}(1)-\log_{12}(2)&-&[\log_{12}(8)+\log_{12}(w)] \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill \log_{12}(1)-\log_{12}(2)-\log_{12}(8)-\log_{12}(w)~\hfill$
