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}.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

19.2 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Tia cut a 4 meter and 8 centimeter wire, converting this measure to centimeters

4m + 8 cm = 400cm + 8cm =408 cm

and she cut it into 10 equal pieces, thus each piece measures:

\frac{408cm}{10}=40.8cm.

Martha has a wire of 540 centimeter wich she cutted into 9 equal pieces, so each piece measures:

\frac{540cm}{9} =60cm

The difference between the two wires is:

60cm - 40.8cm=19.2cm
