X=3
Just look at where the two lines intercept and see the x value
2,200.413 is 2,165.413 to its nearest hundredth.
Answer:
x = 5.5 (nearest tenth)
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the length of 1 side
given area of square poster is 30 in²
and
Area = (length of 1 side )²
hence
30 = x²
x = √30
x = 5.4772
x = 5.5 (nearest tenth)
4(x² - 2) = 28
1. Distribute the 4
4x² - 8 = -28
2. Plug in 3 and -3
4(3)² - 8 = 28
4(-3)² - 8 = 28
3. Square 3 and -3
4(9) - 8 = 28
4(9) - 8 = 28
28 = 28
The reason both answers are the same is because whenever you put a negative number to an even power, the result becomes positive because any negative multiplied by a negative number is always positive.
28 = 28
