K=19 which would leave the equation 181=181. The first step to solving this is subtracting 9k from each side.
after you do that it should be k-9=10
now you add 9 to both sides leave k=19. plug k into the equation and get 181=181
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x^2+4x+13=0, find the complex roots. The best approach here is to use the quadratic formula. Note that a = 1, b = 4 and c = 13.
Thus, the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac, is (4)^2 - 4(1)(13) = 16 - 52 = -36, and the square root of that is plus or minus i√36, or plus or minus 6i.
plus or minus i√
2y-6=34 is the needed equation
let the time taken to be filled by both pipes be y
1/2 +1/8=1/y
(4+1)/8=1/y
5/8=y
cross multiplying
5y=8
y=8/5
