If you would like to solve the equation 2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16, you can calculate this using the following steps:

<span>2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16
</span><span>2 * x^2 - x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
</span>x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
(x + 4) * (x + 4) = 0
x = - 4

The correct result would be x = - 4.

Answer:

x = -4 is the only solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x² + 8x = x² - 16

We can find the value of x by solving the equation.

(2x² + 8x) - x² = (x² - 16) - x²

x² + 8x = - 16

(x² + 8x) + 16 = (-16) + 16

x² + 8x + 16 = 0

(x + 4)² = 0 [ Since a² + b² + 2ab = (a + b)²]

⇒ (x + 4) = 0

x = -4

Therefore, x = -4 is the only solution of the given equation.

A book store sells a textbook for $150. If the textbook is on sale with 12% off, and there is a sales tax of 8.25% added to the

Yuri [45]

The textbook is $150 originally, so to find the price of the textbook on sale, multiply the original price by 12% (0.12). Then subtract 12% of 150 from 150.

150 * 0.12 = 18

Subtract 18 from 150.

150 - 18 = 132

Multiply the price of the textbook on sale by the sales tax of 8.25% (0.0825). Then add the tax price onto the sale price of the textbook.

132 * 0.0825 = 10.89

Add 10.89 to 132.

132 + 10.89 = 142.89

The final price of the textbook is $142.89.

The function f(x) = { x + 1 is used to complete this Which statements are true of the given function? Check all that apply. tabl

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Options (1) and (5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression that defines the function is,

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{3}{2}$

Option 1

$f(-\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{2}(-\frac{1}{2})+\frac{3}{2}$

$=-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{2}$

$=-\frac{1}{4}+1+\frac{1}{2}$

$=1+\frac{1}{4}$

$=1\frac{1}{4}$

So, $f(-\frac{1}{2} )=-2$ is false.

Option 2

f(0) = $\frac{1}{2}(0)+\frac{3}{2}$

= $\frac{3}{2}$

True.

Option 3

f(1) = $\frac{1}{2}(1)+\frac{3}{2}$

= $\frac{3+1}{2}$

= 2

Therefore, f(1) = -1 is false.

Option 4

$f(2)=\frac{1}{2}(2)+\frac{3}{2}$

$=1+1+\frac{1}{2}$

$=2\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, f(2) = 1 is false.

Option 5

f(4) $=\frac{1}{2}(4)+\frac{3}{2}$

$=2+\frac{3}{2}$

$=\frac{4+3}{2}$

$=\frac{7}{2}$

True.

Options (1) and (5) are the correct options.

Solve x please explain

Anna [14]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

co interior angles add up to 180.

this means that: 48 + 34x - 4 = 180

thus 48 + 34x = 184

therefore, 34x = 136

so, x = 4.
