Answer:

or,x2-x=6

or,x2-x-6=0

or,x2-3x+2x-6=0

or,x(x-3)+2(x-3)=0

or,(x-3)(x+2)=0

so either x=3

or x=-2

Angelique travels 75 miles. Jamila travels 115 kilometres. Show that Angelique has travelled futher than Jamila.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-we know :

we must have the <u>same unit</u> on the distance traveled in order to be able to compare distances

1 mile = 1.6 kilometers

-Angelique traveled 75 miles ( 120 kilometers)

75 miles = 1.6 *75 = 120 kilometers

-Jamila traveled 115 kilometers is given in the problem

-Angelique has travelled further than Jamila because

120 kilometers > 115 kilometers

Solve for 2x^2-4x+5=6

Softa [21]

To solve for a variable, you need to get it (x) by itself.

2x² - 4x + 5 = 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
2x² - 4x - 1 = 0 Plug this into the Quadratic Formula

a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -1
x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in your values
x = $\frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4(2)(-1)} }{2(2)}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 + 8} }{4}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm 2\sqrt{6} }{4}$ Simplify by removing a 2 from every term
x = $\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify by taking the fraction apart
x = $\frac{2}{2} \pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Change $\frac{2}{2}$ to 1
x = 1 $\pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify $\frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ to $\sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$
x = 1 $\pm \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$

What number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square ? x2 + 12x = 11

Korvikt [17]

You can add a lot of numbers (or so I think). One number I think you can add is 31.

Help me from 6-9 (geometry)

elena55 [62]

Answer:

6) Two angles are called supplementary when their measures add up to 180 degrees. For example, two right angles are supplementary angles.

7) When the sum of two angles is equal to 90 degrees, they are called complementary angles. For example, 30 degrees and 60 degrees are complementary angles.

8) you have to plot the points on the graph and draw a line and label it with L at one point and M at another point.

9) x = 20

m < A = 65

m < B = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5 + 2x - 15 = 90

3x + 2x + 5 - 15 = 90

5x - 10 = 90

5x - 10 + 10 = 90 + 10

5x = 100

5 / 5x = 100 / 5

x = 20

A = 3x + 5

A = 3(20) + 5

A = 60 + 5

A = 65

B = 2x - 15

B = 2(20) - 15

B = 40 - 15

B = 25
