Answer:

(x-1)² = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x)=x²−2x−2

Completing x²−2x−2 = 0 to square

x²−2x − 2=0
x²−2x + 1 - 3 =0
(x - 1)² - 3 = 0
(x - 1)² = 3

Correct choice is D

Are the two statements equivalent the ratio of orange. to blue is 3 to 4 <br><br>please help

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Although I'm not entirely sure of the question (sorry lol), any ratio that is 1.5:2 , 6:8 , 9:12 , 12:18 etc would be equivalent to 3 to 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide both 3 and 4 by 2 you'd wind up with 1.5 ( 3 ) and 2 ( 4 ). When multiplying, you'd get 3x2 = 6 and 4x2=8, 3x3 = 9 and 4x3 = 12 and so on.

(2x+3)²=125 find x<br>with full solution please

Schach [20]

Answer:

<em>x = ± ( 5√5 - 3 ) / 2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation ( 2x + 3 )² = 125;

$( 2x + 3 )^{ 2 } = 125 - Take Square Root on Either Side,\\| 2x + 3 | = \sqrt{ 125 } - Simplify Square Root of 125,\\\\| 2x + 3 | = \sqrt{ 5 * 25 } - Simplify Further,\\| 2x + 3 | = 5\sqrt{ 5 } - Take | |,\\\\2x + 3 = 5\sqrt{ 5 } , and , 2x + 5 = - 5\sqrt{ 5 } - Algebra, \\2x = 5\sqrt{ 5 } - 3 , and , 2x = - 5\sqrt{ 5 } - 3 - Divide Either Side by 2\\\\x = ( 5\sqrt{ 5 } - 3 ) / 2, and , x = ( - 5\sqrt{ 5 } - 3 ) / 2\\Conclusion ; x = ( + / - 5\sqrt{ 5 } - 3 ) / 2$

<em>Solution ; x = ± ( 5√5 - 3 ) / 2</em>
