Answer: x1 = 5
x2 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Identify the coefficients
2. Move the constant to the right side of the equation and combine
3. Complete the square
4. Solve for x
Answer: f(x) = x/2 + 4.
where f(x) is the number of stamps that Tom has, and x is the number of stamps that Myrna has.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is:
"Tom has four more than half the stamps that Myrna has"
For how is written, we can model the number of stamps that Tom has as a function f(x).
f(x) represents the number of stamps that Tom has, and x is the number of stamps that Myrna has.
Then:
"four more than a number" is written as:
N + 4 (where N is the number)
"Half the stamps that Myrna has" is written as:
x/2.
Then the whole statement can be modeled as:
f(x) = x/2 + 4.
notice that we have x/2, and f(x) must be a whole number, so Myrna must have an even number of stamps (in that case x/2 will be integer)
Answer:
90ft
Step-by-step explanation:
I draw it out and add a dotted line to make a triangle and rectangle then you find the area of them individually and add the two together.
Rectangle:
6*3=18
Triangle:
Add the 6+6 together to get the height of the triangle and subtract the 3 from the 15 to get the base
(12*12)
144/
72
Total area:
18+72
90ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hello :
let y the length and x the width
A the area and P the perimeter
so : A= xy and P = 2(x+y) ....y > x and x >0 ; y>0
xy = 1764 ...(1)
y = x +13....(2) put this value in (1) : x (x+13) = 1764
x²+13x -1764 = 0 ...quadratic equation
calculate : Δ = b² -4ac a =1 and b =13 and
c = -1764
Δ = (13)² - 4(1)(-1764) = 169 +7056 = 7225=85²
X1 =(-b-√Δ)/2a =(-13-85)/2 < 0 refused (x >0)
X2 =(-b+√Δ)/2a =(-13+85)/2 = 72/2 = 36
so : x= 36 put this value in (2) : y = 36+13 = 49
the perimeter is : P = 2(x+y)
P = 2(36+49) = 170 m
Answer:
-(-3) ± √(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-5) / 2(2) (the last choice).
Step-by-step explanation:
Im ignoring the 2^2 in the equation
The equation transforms to
2x^2 - 3x - 5 = 0 (standard form)
So x = -(-3) ± √(-3)^2 - 4(2)(-5) / 2(2)
