Answer:

x = - \frac{1}{2}, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4x - 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )

4x - 5 = ± \sqrt{49} = ± 7 ( add 5 to both sides )

4x = 5 ± 7, thus

4x = 5 - 7 = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = \frac{-2}{4} = - \frac{1}{2}

or

4x = 5 + 7 = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 3

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.

x = - \frac{1}{2}

left side = (- 2 - 5)² = (- 7)² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution

x = 3

left side = (12 - 5)² = 7² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution

\bf \textit{surface area of a sphere}\\\\ SA=4\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ A=14650000 \end{cases}\implies 14650000=4\pi r^2 \\\\\\ \cfrac{14650000}{4\pi }=r^2\implies \cfrac{3662500}{\pi }=r^2\implies \sqrt{\cfrac{3662500}{\pi }}=r\implies 1079.73\approx r

A person can drive 200 miles in 4 hours.What is the constant of proportionality?
Eddi Din [679]
To get the constant of proportionality (unit rate) you must find the miles driven in 1 hour. To get this you simply divide 200 by 4...
200÷4=50
So, the constant of proportionality is 50 mph.

The length of each side of the square is decreased by 2 inches, so the perimeter is now 48 inches . What was the original length
Jet001 [13]
X=original length of each side of the square.
perimeter: sum of all sides=4(length of the side)
The length of each side of the new square will be= (x-2)
we can suggest this equation:

4(x-2)=48

We solve this equation:
4(x-2)=48
4x-8=48
4x=48+8
4x=56
x=56/4
x=14

Answer: the original length of each side of the square would be 14 in.
