Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square. x^2+12x+52=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(x + 6)² + 16 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square we will first need to get our equation to look like: x² + bx = c

Here we have x² + bx + c = 0 → x² + 12x + 52 = 0

  • First we need to subtract our c, in this case 52, from both sides to get x² + 12x = -52
  • We then need to add (\frac{b}{2} )^{2} to both sides of the equation
  • Here our b value is 12, so plugging this into our formula we get (\frac{12}{2} )^{2} =(6)^{2} =36
  • Adding 36 to both sides our equation becomes: x² + 12x + 36 = -52 + 36
  • Then combining like terms on the right side we get x² + 12x + 36 = -16
  • Now making our left side of the equation into a perfect square we get: (x + 6)² = -16
  • Finally adding the 16 to both sides of the equation we get: (x + 6)² + 16 = 0

Identify the similar triangles them find the x
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

ADB and ABC are similar

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse in ADB = \sqrt{4^2 + 2^2 } = \sqrt{20}

since two triangles are similar,

\frac{2+x}{\sqrt{20} } = \frac{\sqrt{20}}{2}

solving for x, x=8

Luba_88 [7]
X represents the number that would be added to the silver cars.


x/40= 4
X=40x4
x=160

Subtract the given 20 from 160 because 160 is the total number
160-20=140
Therefore 140 would be added to 20 silver cars to get the ratio1:4
