Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

x² - 6x + 4 = 0 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² - 6x = - 4

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = - 4 + 9

(x - 3)² = 5 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 3 = ± \sqrt{5} ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 3 ± \sqrt{5} ← exact solutions

(b)

4x² + 16x + 9 = 0

To complete the square

The coefficient of the x² term must be 1

Factor out 4 from 4x² + 16x

4(x² + 4x) + 9 = 0

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 4x

4(x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4 ) + 9 = 0

4(x + 2)² - 16 + 9 = 0

4(x + 2)² - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

4(x + 2)² = 7 ( divide both sides by 4 )

(x + 2)² = \frac{7}{4} ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt{\frac{7}{4} } = ± \frac{\sqrt{7} }{2} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = - 2 ± \frac{\sqrt{7} }{2} ← exact solutions

______<br> What is 0.142857 as a fraction
Nitella [24]
Start by going in the order of decimals and what ever you end at, put this number on top
142857/<span>100000
And then you simplify it to the smallest numbers and you have your answer. It can't be simplified so it is just:
</span>142857/<span>100000</span>

Write an equation in standard form for:
Tasya [4]
Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length. 
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.  
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P. 
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)

Name the figure. Select all answers that apply.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The answer is Plane P

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for the answer is because a closed, two-dimensional or flat figure is called a plane shape. Different plane shapes have different attributes, such as the numbers of sides or corners. A side is a straight line that makes part of the shape, and a corner is where two sides meet.

An item costs x dollars and then a 20% discount is applied
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

If an item is x dollars and 20% discount is applied, the new price will be: 0.8x

Step-by-step explanation:

100 - 20%(20) = 80

80 = 80% or 0.8

So, the remaining of the price of x will be 0.8x.
