The radical equation is \sqrt{x+6}-5=x+1.


i) We first isolate the square root, adding 5 to both sides of the equation: 
       
                                        \sqrt{x+6}=x+6.

ii) Here let's substitute x+6 with t. Doing so we have:
 
                                         \sqrt{t}=t.

Squaring both sides, we get:
                       
                                               t=t^2

iii) Collecting the variables on the same side, and factorizing t we have:
 
                                               t(t-1)=0, which yields

                              t=0    or       t=1.

Now we solve for x in x+6=t:

x+6=0 ⇒x=-6       and x+6=1⇒x=-5.


iv) Now we check these values in the original equation  \sqrt{x+6}=x+6 :

a) \sqrt{-6+6}=-6+6. ⇒ 0=0 ; Correct.


b) \sqrt{-5+6}=-5+6. ⇒ 1=1 ; Correct.

8.7/2=q/4 what is Q and give me work plez
ZanzabumX [31]
8.7/2=q/4
multiply both sides by 4: q=8.7/2*4
multiply both sides by 2: 2q=8.7 times 4
refine the equation: 2q=34.8
multiply both sides by 10: 20q=348
Divide both sides by 20: 20q/20=348/20
refine the equation for the final answer: q=87/5

If the die were to be rolled 6000 times, would we expect to obtain exactly 1000 '2's? explain your answer.
ludmilkaskok [199]
The probability of that occurring is 0%. There are 6 sides in a typical dice, which means the probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6th. (1/6)^1000 will give you the probability of rolling a 2 exactly 1000 times. (1/6)^1000 equates to 0%.

kipiarov [429]
x=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\&#10;2ax=-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\\&#10;\sqrt{b^2-4ac}=2ax+b\\&#10;b^2-4ac=(2ax+b)^2\\&#10;-4ac=4a^2x^2+4abx+b^2-b^2\\&#10;-4ac=4a^2x^2+4abx\\&#10;c=-ax^2-bx
