PLEASE HELP Solve. x^2+9x+2=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nataliya [291]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using completing the square method

x²+9x+2=0

x²+9x = -2   (complete the square by adding (9/2)² to both sides)

x²+9x + (9/2)² = -2 + (9/2)²

( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (9/2)²

( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (81/4)

( x + (9/2) )² = 73/4

x + (9/2)  = ± √(73/4)

x + (9/2)  = ± √(73) / 2

x = -(9/2) ± √(73) / 2  (factorize out (1/2) )

x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)

6a+4=61/3+4<br> I don’t know what I’m doing wrong because I keep getting 10 1/3
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a = 3 7/18 or 3.388889

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to get the a by itself, so you would subtract 4 from the left side of the equals sign.

6a + 4 = 61 / 3 + 4

    -4                   -4

6a = 61 / 3

By doing that, they cancel each other out, so you are left with

6a = 61 / 3

Then you want to get a by itself, so you divide 6 from both sides.

6a / 6 = 61 / 3  /  6

Remember that 6 can also be written as 6/1

Remember that dividing a fraction is multiplying the reciprocal.

6a / 6 = 61 / 3  /  6 / 1

When dividing fractions remember to Skip the first fraction, Flip the second fraction, and Multiply the two fractions together.

61 / 3      x        1 / 6

skip   multiply   flip

Multiply across the top, and across the bottom.

61(1) and 3(6)

Then you get

61 / 18

So a = 61 / 18

If you want to convert that to a mixed number, it would be 3  7 / 18

If you want that in a decimal, it would be 3.388889
