What value of r makes –6r + 2(r + 2) – 5 = -20 true?

Hello!

To find the answer we need to solve for r. First we undo the parentheses.

-6r+2r+4-5=-20

Now we combine like terms.

-4r-1=-20

We add one to both sides.

-4r=-19

Divide both sides by -4.

r=4.75

I hope this helps!

The ratio of three angle are 3:4:5 <br>what is the highest angle of the triangle??
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The sum of the sides of a triangle is equal to 180º.
The three angles will be: 3x,4x and 5x. 
we can suggest the following equation:
3x+4x+5x=180

12x=180
x=180/12
x=15

The angles would be:
3x=3(15)=45
4x=4(15)=60
5x=5(15)=75

Answer: the highest angle would measure 75º.

What must be added to both sides in 4x² + 24x + 8 = 32 in order to complete the square?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a quadratic equation by using the completing the square method, the coefficient of the square term i.e x² must be one (1).

Therefore, we would have to first make the coefficient of x² to be equal to 1.

4x² + 24x + 8 = 32

We would simplify the equation;

4x² + 24x = 32 - 8

4x² + 24x = 24

Divide all through by 4;

x² + 8x = 24

The value to be added = (8/2)² = 4² = 16

x² + 8x + 16 = 8 + 16

x² + 4x + 4x + 16 = 24

x(x + 4) + 4(x + 4) = 24

(x + 4)² = 24

Taking the square root of both sides;

x + 4 = ± 4.9

x = -4 ± 4.9

x = -4 + 4.9 = 0.9

or

x = -4 - 4.9 = - 8.9

<em>Therefore, 16 must be added to solve the quadratic equation by completing the square method. </em>
