What is the solution of sqrt x+2-15=-3

Mathematics
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Without brackets, we are not exactly sure what is under the root sign. There are 3 choices.

sqrt(x) + 2 - 15 = - 3

sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3

sqrt(x + 2 - 15) = - 3

I think the middle one is what you intend. If not leave a note.

sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3                Add 15 to both sides.

sqrt(x + 2) - 15+15 = - 3+15     Combine

sqrt(x + 2) = 12                        Square both sides

x + 2 = 12^2                             Do the right

x + 2 = 144                               Subtract 2 from both sides.

x + 2-2 = 144-2

x = 142

HURRY LIMITED TIME
lakkis [162]
If g is the gallons of gas, and the truck holds up to 20 gallons, then g can be anything from 0 to 20.

If there is zero gallons of gas (g = 0) then the truck will travel zero miles because M(0) = 17(0) = 0.

The max miles depends on the max gallons of gas, so the miles possible with 20 gallons is M(20) = 17(20) = 340.

So, g ranges from 0 to 20 and M(g) ranges from 0 to 340.
Therefore your answer is the last option.

You order two tacos and a salad. the salad costs 2.50.you pay 8% sales tax and leave a $3 tip. you pay a total of 13.80 how much
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Given:Price of one taco = x; price of 2 tacos = 2xPrice of salad = $2.50Sales tax = 8% of the combined price of two tacos and a salad, namely .08(2x + 2.50)Tip = constant fee = $3.00Total bill = $13.80 Therefore the equation becomes
2x + 2.50 + .08(2x + 2.50) + 3 = 13.80 Solutions: 2x + 2.50 + .16x + .20 + 3 = 13.80 (using the distributive property to multiply 2x and 2.5 by .08).2.16x + 2.70 + 3 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 - 5.70 (subtraction property of equality)2.16x = 8.10x = 8.10/2.16 = 3.75 (division property of equality)
The cost of a single taco is $3.75
