3a+2(4a-1)=9 \\ \\ 3a + 8a - 2 = 9 \\ \\ 11a - 2 = 9 \\ \\ 11a = 9 + 2 \\ \\ 11a = 11 \\ \\ a = 1 \\ \\

The final result is: a = 1.

3a+2(4a-1)=9

Step 1: Simplify Equation

Distribute:
3a+(2)(4a)+(2)(-1)=9
3a+8a-2=9
Combine Like Terms:
(3a+8a)+(-2)=9
11a-2=9

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides

11a-2=9
+2 +2
11a = 11
---- ----
11 11
a = 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first subtract 6x from both sides which will give you something like:

-4= 2x - 9

then you would add 9 on both sides which would give you

5 = 2x

which now you would divide 2 by both sides with would give you

5/2 = x

simplify it one more time

2.5 = x

Please answer asap if u know the answer!!!! completing a square. thank you!!!!
Tema [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form using the method of completing the square.

Given

f(x) = 3x² - 24x + 10

We require the coefficient of the x² term to be 1 , thus factor out 3

3(x² - 8x) + 10

To complete the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 8x

= 3(x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 - 16) + 10

= 3(x - 4)² + (3 × - 16) + 10

= 3(x - 4)² - 48 + 10

= 3(x - 4)² - 38, thus

f(x) = 3(x - 4)² - 38 ← in vertex form
