I don’t understand what’s it asking and what’s the answer

Solve x2 − 12x + 5 = 0 using the completing-the-square method. x = six plus or minus the square root of five x = negative six pl

Andru [333]

we are given

$x^2-12x+5=0$

we have to solve it by completing square method

step-1: Move 5 on right side

$x^2-12x+5-5=0-5$

$x^2-12x=-5$

step-2: Break middle term

$x^2-2*6*x=-5$

step-3: Add 6^2 both sides

$x^2-2*6*x+(6)^2=-5+(6)^2$

$(x-6)^2=31$

step-3: Solve for x

$\sqrt{(x-6)^2} =\sqrt{31}$

we wil get two values

First value is

$x-6=\sqrt{31}$

add both sides 6

$x-6+6=6+\sqrt{31}$

$x=6+\sqrt{31}$

Second value is

$x-6=-\sqrt{31}$

add both sides 6

$x-6+6=6-\sqrt{31}$

$x=6-\sqrt{31}$

so, solutions are

$x=6+\sqrt{31}$

$x=6-\sqrt{31}$ .............Answer

Evaluate the expression when r = 3.<br> 15r

Liula [17]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if you replace the r with 3, it would be 15(3).

15(3) is the same as 15 × 3.

15 × 3 = 45

In 2010, the population of a city was 241,000. From 2010 to 2015, the population grew by 5%. From 2015 to 2020, it fell by 4%. T

lawyer [7]

Answer:

242, 900 people

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, it says that the population grew by 5%.

(241000)(1.00 + 0.05) = <em>population of the city in 2015</em>

(241000)(1.05) = 253050

253050 is the population of the city in 2015. From 2015 to 2020 it fell four percent.

(253050)(1.00 - 0.04) = <em>population of the city in 2020</em>

(253050)(0.96) = 242928

242928 is the exact population of the city. However, it says to round to the nearest hundred. Since 28 is less than 50, then it would round down to 900.

Therefore, the answer would be 242, 900 people.

Numbers divisible by 100 are divisible by 5.

Reptile [31]

The additional true statement that would need to be given in order to state the conclusion using the law of detachment is 49,700 is divisible by 100.

<h3 /><h3>What is law of detachment?</h3>

For instance,

Statement A: If there's an increase in Mr Charles salary.

Statement B: Mr Charles buys bicycle for his son.

This means Mr Charles buying bicycle for his son is true because of the increase in income.

Amir started a business with john and jack. Amir invested 2/6 of the amount to start a business. John 2/5 of the investment. The

Nonamiya [84]

First, we need to add 2/6 and 2/5.

2/6 can be simplified to 1/3

We need to have 1/3 and 2/5 have the same denominator. 3 and 5's LCM (least common multiply) is 15.

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5. This equals 5/15.

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/5 by 3. This equals 6/15.

5/15 plus 6/15 is 11/15. This means that Jack's 6000 dollars is 4/15.

Let's say that x is the total amount invested by all three.

6000/x would equal 4/15.

Solve this by multiply 6000 by 15 and 4 by x and making these two equal each other.

90000 would equal 4x. Divide both sides by 4 to get x.

90000 divided by 4 would be 22500.

4/15 is the fraction by Jack

22500 is the total amount invested by all 3
