Answer:

The solution set is {-12,2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a quadratic equation.

x² + 10x = 24

We have to find the solution of above equation by completing square.

Adding (5)² to both sides of above equation, we have

x²+10+(5)²  = 24+ (5)²

(x+5)² = 24+25

(x+5)² = 49

Taking square root to both sides of above equation, we have

x+5 = ±7

x+5 = 7 or x+5 = -7

x = 7-5 or x = -7-5

x = 2 or  x = -12

Hence, the solution set is {-12,2}.

Find the dimensions of a rectangular building with a perimeter of 110 meters if the length is four
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

b = 11 m

l = 44 m

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 4b (length is four times width)

Perimeter = 110 m

2 * ( l + b ) = 110

2 * (4b + b ) = 110

         2 * 5b = 110

                b = 110 / ( 2*5) = 11

b = 11 m

l = 4b = 4 * 11 = 44 m
