we'll start off by grouping some
so we have a missing guy at the end in order to get the a perfect square trinomial from that group, hmmm, what is it anyway?
well, let's recall that a perfect square trinomial is
so we know that the middle term in the trinomial, is really 2 times the other two without the exponent, well, in our case, the middle term is just "x", well is really -x, but we'll add the minus later, we only use the positive coefficient and variable, so we'll use "x" to find the last term.
so, there's our fellow, however, let's recall that all we're doing is borrowing from our very good friend Mr Zero, 0, so if we add (1/2)², we also have to subtract (1/2)²
![\bf \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)=6\implies \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2=6 \\\\\\ \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=6+\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=\cfrac{25}{4}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\cfrac{25}{4}} \\\\\\ x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{1}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies \boxed{x=3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cleft%28%20x%5E2%20-x%20%2B%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2-%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%20%5Cright%29%3D6%5Cimplies%20%5Cleft%28%20x%5E2%20-x%20%2B%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%20%5Cright%29-%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%3D6%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%28x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%3D6%2B%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cleft%28x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%3D%5Ccfrac%7B25%7D%7B4%7D%5Cimplies%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Ccfrac%7B25%7D%7B4%7D%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B%5Csqrt%7B25%7D%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B4%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%2B%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B6%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cboxed%7Bx%3D3%7D)
Answer:
24 - X = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Mai's water bottle had 24 ounces in it. After she drank x ounces of water, there were 10 ounces left, in order to determine the equation that represents this situation, the following reasoning has to be made:
Since the bottle has 24 ounces of liquid, that is its initial content, from which an amount X is subtracted, after which 10 ounces of water remain. That is, 24 - X = 10.
Thus, this equation is solved in the following way:
24 - X = 10
24 = 10 + X
24 - 10 = X
14 = X
The angles 1 and 2 are right angles.
As stated in the question line l is perpendicular to line m and perpendicular lines create right angles
Hope this helps :)
