Let the number be x. The other number is also x.
Given the first number is 24.6 and sum is -44.85
24.6 + x + x = -44.85
Combine like terms:
2x + 24.6 = -44.85
Add 24.6 on both sides:
2x = -44.85 - 24.6
Evaluate Right Hand Side:
2x = -69.45
Divide both sides by 2:
x =- 34.725
Answer: The two numbers are both -34.725.
Answer:
(x - 1)² = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 2x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
x² - 2x = - 1
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 = - 1 + 1
(x - 1)² = 0
