Finding the roots by completing the square

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
6 0
For y=x^2-6x-11

complete the square

so roots
set y=0
0=x^2-6x-11

group x terms
0=(x^2-6x)-11
take 1/2 of linear coefient (-6) and square it
-6/2=-3, (-3)^2=9
add positive and neative to inside of parenthasees
0=(x^2-6x+9-9)-11
complete square
0=((x-3)^2-9)-11
expand
0=(x-3)^2-9-11
0=(x-3)^2-20
add 20 to both sides
20=(x-3)^2
sqrt both sides
remember positive and negative roots

+/-2√5=x-3
add 3 to both sides
3+/-2√5=x

so
x=3+2√5 and 3-2√5

The land area of a country is about 5.0 million square​ miles, and the population is about 600 million people. What is the avera
podryga [215]

Answer:

120 people/sq. mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Population Density is the concept of how "crowdy" a place is. The more the population density, the more crowded that place is.

The population density is found by dividing the "number of people" by the "land area" (in sq mile or sq km).

Here, it is given there are 600 million people, so

Number of People = 600,000,000

And, the land area is given as 5 million square miles, so

Land Area = 5,000,000 sq. miles

Hence,

Population Density = 600,000,000/5,000,000 = 120 people/sq. mile

A sandwich costs 5:70 and a piece of fruit costs 2:15 if you have a 20 bill, how much change will you get ?
Gelneren [198K]
Well if you buy only 1 of each, it would cost you 7.85 in total. if you subtract that from 20, it equals 12.15.
you can also make it a linear equation if you want more or less than 1 fruit and or sandwich
s=sandwich
f=fruit
5.7f+2.15f=20
