5(3 +x) – 2 = (5+3)*(5+x)
(8-2)*(5x-2)
6*5x-2
this Is what I came up with.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.
Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is
x + 1125
After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that
(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)
x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500
10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500
9x = 675
x = 675/9
x = 75
Porky's current weight is
75 + 50 = 125 lbs
Kobe's current weight is
(75 + 1125) + 50
= 1250 lbs
Subtracting a number from x shifts the graph that may places tot he right
Subtracting a number at the end of the equation, shifts the graph that many units down.
The answer would be: Shift the graph of y = x^2 right 2 units and then down 10 units.
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)
