X^2+8x-6=0
(x+8/2)^2-(8/2)^2-6=0
(x+4)^2-16-6=0
(x+4)^2-22=0

x+4= ± square root 22

x=-4 + square root 22 or x=-4 - square root 22
=0.6904 =-8.6904

STEP 1- since 6 doesn't contain the variable to solve for move it to the right side of the equation by subtracting 6 from both sides
X^2-8X=-6
STEP 2- create a trinomial square on the left side of the equation find the value that is equal to the square of half of b the coefficient of x 
(b/2)^2 =(-4)^2
STEP 3- add the term to each side of the equation
x^2-8x+(-4)^2=-6=(-4) 
STEP 4- simplify the equation
x^2-8x+16=10 
STEP 5- factor the perfect trinomial square into (x-4)^2
(x-4)^2=10
STEP 6-solve the equation for x
x=4= square root of 10

What is 4 1/3 × 2 3/5? express it in lowest terms​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

We have,

4\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot2\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{13}{3}\cdot\dfrac{13}{5}=\dfrac{13\cdot13}{3\cdot5}=\dfrac{169}{15}=\boxed{11.2\bar{6}}

To express periodic number calculated we use:

x=11.2\bar{6}\\10x = 112.\bar{6}\\100x=1126.\bar{6}\\90x=100x-10x\Longrightarrow90x=1126.\bar6-112.\bar6\\90x=1014\\x=\dfrac{1014}{90}=\boxed{11\dfrac{24}{90}}

Hope this helps.
