Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 8x = 4 ⇔ x² + 8x + 16 = 4 + 16 ⇔ x² + 2×4x + 4² = 20 ⇔ (x + 4)² = (2√5)²

Remark : (2√5)² = 20

Find the

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of an equilateral triangle is

A = $\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}$ ( s is the side length ) then

$\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}$ = 81 $\sqrt{3}$ ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

s² $\sqrt{3}$ = 324 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ )

s² = 324 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = $\sqrt{324}$ = 18

Thus

perimeter = 3 × 18 = 54 cm

At a 3-mile cross-country race, an athlete runs 2 miles at 6 mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. What is the athlete's average speed?

Tom [10]

Answer: the average speed is 7.5 mph or at least im pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you make the 2 miles at 6 mph to 1 mile at 3 mph then you get 1 mile at 3mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. now that you have the unit rates of these you can add them. 1 + 1 = 2 miles and 3 + 12 = 15 mph now divide this by two and you get 7.5 mph per mile.

I hope this helped, if it did could you give me a good rating? lol
