Solvex - 8x= 3 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
erastova [34]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 4±sqrt(19)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you meant x^2 -8x = 3

Take the coefficient of x

-8

Divide by 2

-8/2 =-4

Square it

(-4)^2 = 16

Add this to each side

x^2 -8x +16= 3+16

The number inside the square term is the coefficient divided by 2

(x-4)^2=19

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-4)^2=±sqrt(19)

x-4 = ±sqrt(19)

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 = 4±sqrt(19)

x = 4±sqrt(19)

A factor of 30 is chosen out random.what is the probability as a decimal,that is a two digit number.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

A factor of 30 is chosen at random. What is the probability, as a decimal, that it is a 2-digit number?

The positive whole-number factors of 30 are:

1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 and 30.

So, there are 8 of them. Of these, 3 have two digits. Writing each factor on a slip of paper, then putting the slips into a hat, and finally choosing one without looking, get that

P(factor of 30 chosen is a 2-digit number) = number of two-digit factors ÷ number of factors

=38=3×.125=.375  as a decimal number.

Please help with question A and show work!! thank you
Digiron [165]
The equation for the line of reflection is x = 2. 
If you drew a vertical line crossing the x-axis on x = 2, the drawing will be the same on the left and right side, as if one side was drawn then exactly copied on the other side but flipped. 
The figure is symmetrical, and x = 2 is the line of symmetry. 
Hope this helps!

The temperature fell from 0 degrees to 15 1/2 degrees below 0 in 5 3/4 hours. Wen tried to find the change in temperature per ho
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

-62/23 degrees per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Do this by dividing the total change in temperature (-15 1/2 degrees) by the total elapsed time (5 3/4 hrs):

-31/2 degrees       -62/4 degrees        Note:  convert 31/2 to 62/4

--------------------- = ------------------------ = -62/23 degrees per hour

23/4 hrs                  23/4 hrs
