Answer:

Option D)Neither solution is extraneous.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

\sqrt{11-2x}=\sqrt{x^{2}+4x+4}

we know that

two possible solutions are x=-7 and x=1

<u><em>Verify each solution</em></u>

Substitute each value of x in the expression above and interpret the results

1) For x=-7

\sqrt{11-2(-7)}=\sqrt{-7^{2}+4(-7)+4}

\sqrt{25}=\sqrt{25}

5=5 ----> is true

therefore

x=-7 is not a an extraneous solution

2) For x=1

\sqrt{11-2(1)}=\sqrt{1^{2}+4(1)+4}

\sqrt{9}=\sqrt{9}

3=3 ----> is true

therefore

x=1 is not a an extraneous solution

therefore

Neither solution is extraneous

a fisherman catches 2 fish the amberjack weighs 3 times as much as the snapper,altogether the fish weigh 44 pounds how much does
Anna [14]

Because of the fact that the amberjack is essentially three snappers, it can be shown as 3s

since one snapper is one s, and the amberjack is 3s, we can combine like terms

s+3s = 4s

because altogether, the fish weigh 44 pounds, 4s would equal 44 (shown as 4s = 44), from there, simply divide by 4 on both sides to get the weight of a snapper;

s = 11

Small bonus (finding an amberjack)

Since an amberjack is equal to three snappers, and a snapper is 11 pounds, an amberjack would be 33 pounds.

Please help will mark brainliest if right
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

6 = W + 2

Explanation:

The reason is since the hangar balance is "balanced" and there are six units on the left side and only 2 on the right (minus the variable weight), that means that the left weight is equal to the right and therefore 6u=w+2u.
