3(5x-4) =8x+2
15x -12 =8x+2
15x-8x =2+12
7x =14
x =14/7
x=2 (ans)
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
So here you're just completing the square. the equation you gave is simply:
where c is the unknown value we're solving for. Whenever you complete the square, you add (b/2)^2
The reason for this, is because whenever you write a binomial as a perfect square it's in the form:
and this binomial expands out to become: 
If we write the second term of the binomial as b/2 we get:

which simplifies to:

and as you can see the last term is (b/2)^2, which is why we need to add that part for it to be a perfect square.
So we would need to add (16/2)^2 = 8^2 = 64
This way, we can express it as a perfect square binomial:
which expands out to: 
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
First, factorize the number 3,240:

So,

Now consider the fraction

If k = 10, then

is a square number.
For all k < 10, the fraction tex]\dfrac{3,240}{k}[/tex] is not a square number (this follows from factorization).
Or you can simply check the values of the fraction for all k < 10:
- k = 1,
is not a square number; - k = 2,
is not a square number; - k = 3,
is not a square number; - k = 4,
is not a square number; - k = 5,
is not a square number; - k = 6,
is not a square number; - k = 7,
is not a square number; - k = 8,
is not a square number; - k = 9,
is not a square number.
If E is the midpoint, DE and EF are equivalent.
2x+4=3x-1
4=x-1
5=x
Plug the value of x in
2(5)+4
14
3(5)-1
14
14+14=28
Final answer: DE=14, EF=14, DF= 28
Answer:
9 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
He uses 3 ounces 3 different days. That is 3x3 which equals 9. Hope you get a 100! :)
