Solve this equation using all three methods 4x^ = 9

Bumek [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x=-\frac{3}{2}, x=\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)       To solve by factoring,

Given equation: 4 x^{2}=9

Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation.

\begin{aligned}&4 x^{2}-9=9-9\\&4 x^{2}-9=0\\&(2 x)^{2}-3^{2}=0\\&(2 x-3)(2 x+3)=0\end{aligned}

Using zero factor principle, 2 x-3=0,2 x+3=0

The solutions are x=-\frac{3}{2}, x=\frac{3}{2}.

(2) To solve by complete the square ,

Given 4 x^{2}=9

Divide both sides of the equation by 4.  

\frac{4 x^{2}}{4}=\frac{9}{4}  

\Rightarrow x^{2}=\frac{9}{4}  

Square root on both sides.

$\Rightarrow x=\pm \frac{3}{2}$

x=-\frac{3}{2}, x=\frac{3}{2}

(3) To solve by quadratic formula,  

$4 x^{2}-9=0$

Here, a = 4, b = 0, c = –9

Quadratic formula, $x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

x=\frac{-0 \pm \sqrt{0^{2}-4 \times 4 \times(-9)}}{2 \times 4}

\begin{aligned}&\Rightarrow x=\frac{\pm \sqrt{144}}{8}\\&\Rightarrow x=\pm \frac{3}{2}\\&\Rightarrow x=\frac{3}{2}, x=-\frac{3}{2}\end{aligned}

Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary. Angle 2 is 1/5 the size of angle 1. What are the degree measurements of each angle?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

the stated ratio means that of the 180 degrees involving two supplementary angles, the smaller angle is one sixth of that whole. Thus the smaller angle measures 30 degrees & the larger measures 150 degrees.

Find x and m of angle wyl
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x is clearly 42° because WU is an angle bisector of YWZ (which is 84, and bisecting means half of 84, that is 42)

now, for m of WYL

notice, YLW = 90°

also, UWL = 42°

name the intersection point of YL and WU as O in your mind

Apply angle sum property of a triangle for triangle WOL

angle WOL + angle UWL + angle YLW = 180

angle WOL + 90 + 42 = 180

angle WOL = 180 - 132

angle WOL = 48

now focus on line LOY

since LOY is a line, the angles a line intersecting it forms a linear pair, i.e

angle WOL + angle YOW = 180

48 + YOW = 180

angle YOW = 132

Now, apply angle sum property for triangle YOW

angle YOW + angle YWO (x) + angle WYO (or WYL) = 180

132 + 42 + WYO (or WYL) = 180

WYO (or WYL) = 6°
