Marika solved the equation (6x + 15)2 + 24 = 0. Her work is below. 1. (6x + 15)2 = –24 2. = 3. 6x + 15 = 4. 6x = – 15 5. x = Ana

lyze Marika’s steps. Which statement is true about her work? In step 2, Marika should have simplified to be . There are no real solutions to this equation because the square root of a negative number is not a real number. There should be two real solutions to this equation because = . Marika correctly solved this equation.

Given equation: (6x + 15)^2 + 24 = 0.

First step Marika applied to get rid 24 from left side.

24 is added on left side of the equation.

The reverse operation of addition is subtract.

So, we need to subtract 24 from both sides in first step.

(6x + 15)^2 + 24-24 = 0-24

On simplifying it gives:

(6x+15)^2= -24..

Then she took square root to get rid square from left side .

But we can see that 24 is a negative number.

So, we can't take square root of 24.

Therefore, in second step the did some mistake:

<h3><em>There are no real solutions to this equation because the square root of a negative number is not a real number.</em></h3>

The distance between City A and City B is 250 miles. A length of 2.3 feet represents this distance on a certain wall map. City C
masya89 [10]

The distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, The distance between City A and City B is 250 miles.  

A length of 2.3 feet represents this distance on a certain wall map.  

City C and City D are 4.14 feet apart on this map.  

We have to find what is the actual distance between City C and City D?

Now, distance between a and b is 250 miles ⇒ 2.3 feet on map

Then, distance between c and d be n miles  ⇒ 4.14 feet on map.

Now, by chris cross method.

250 x 4.14 = 2.3 x n miles.

2.3n = 1035

n = 450

Hence, the distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.

Find the pattern in the Fibonacci sequence and identify the next two terms.
klasskru [66]

For the Fibonacci sequence you add the two previous numbers. You always start with 0, 1 and you add 0 and 1 which makes 1 then 1 + 1 makes two and so on. The next number in the sequence would be 34 + 55, meaning 89, and after that would be 55 + 89, or 144.

The question of two numbers is eight the sum of the same two numbers is 72 what are the two numbers
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The two numbers are 64 and 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

You meant "quotient" of two numbers, right?

Represent the numbers by x and  y.

Then the quotient is x/y = 8, and beyond that we know that x + y = 72.

Solve this for x and y.  

If x/y = 8, then x = 8y.  Substituting this into x + y = 72, we get:

(8y) + y = 72, or 9y = 72.  Dividing both sides by 9 yields y = 8.

Since x/y = 8, letting y = 8 results in x = 64.

The two numbers are 64 and 8.
