Number 3.
opens up
vertex (1,2)
idk maybe because it is on the right side. its positive

number 4.
opens up as well
Vertex (-2,0)
no because it is negative and on the left. Idk just a guess for this one

6c to te second power - 5d + 8

mina [271]

Lets see,
6c to the second power is 36c because 6c times 6c is 36 c
And since the variables are different and only one number doesn't have a variable,
The answer would be, 36c-5d+8

2x2 – 5x + 67 = 0<br> What would be your first step in completing the square for the equation above?

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The first step is to divide all the terms by the coefficient of $x^{2}$ which is 2.

The solutions to the quadratic equation $2x^2\:-\:5x\:+\:67\:=\:0$ are:

$x=\frac{5}{4}+i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4},\:x=\frac{5}{4}-i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

$2x^2\:-\:5x\:+\:67\:=\:0$

The first step is to divide all the terms by the coefficient of $x^{2}$ which is 2.

so

$\frac{2x^2-5x}{2}=\frac{-67}{2}$

$x^2-\frac{5x}{2}=-\frac{67}{2}$

Lets now solve the equation by completeing the remaining steps

Write equation in the form: $x^2+2ax+a^2=\left(x+a\right)^2$

Solving for $a$ ,

$2ax=-\frac{5}{2}x$

$a=-\frac{5}{4}$

$\mathrm{Add\:}a^2=\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)^2\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$x^2-\frac{5x}{2}+\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)^2=-\frac{67}{2}+\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)^2$

$x^2-\frac{5x}{2}+\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)^2=-\frac{511}{16}$

Completing the square

$\left(x-\frac{5}{4}\right)^2=-\frac{511}{16}$

Since, you had required to know the first step in completing the square for the equation above, I hope you have got the point, but let me quickly solve the remaining solution.

For $f^2\left(x\right)=a$ the solution are $f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}$

Solving

$x-\frac{5}{4}=\sqrt{-\frac{511}{16}}$

$x-\frac{5}{4}=\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{\frac{511}{16}}$

$x-\frac{5}{4}=i\sqrt{\frac{511}{16}}$ ∵ Applying imaginary number rule $\sqrt{-1}=i$

$x-\frac{5}{4}=i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{\sqrt{16}}$

$-\frac{5}{4}=i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$

$x=\frac{5}{4}+i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$

Similarly, solving

$x-\frac{5}{4}=-\sqrt{-\frac{511}{16}}$

$x-\frac{5}{4}=-i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$ ∵ Applying imaginary number rule $\sqrt{-1}=i$

$x=\frac{5}{4}-i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$

Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic equation are:

$x=\frac{5}{4}+i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4},\:x=\frac{5}{4}-i\frac{\sqrt{511}}{4}$

For the following linear equations, determine which inverse operation allows you to determine the solution of the equation. In y

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

Given

$\frac{n}{5}$ = - 0.3

Since n is divided by 5 then use the inverse operation, multiplication.

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

n = 5 × - 0.3 = - 1.5

(2)

Given

- 2n = 4 $\frac{1}{3}$ ← change to an improper fraction

- 2n = $\frac{13}{3}$

Since n is multiplied by - 2 then use the inverse operation, division.

Divide both sides by - 2

n = $\frac{13}{-6}$ = - $\frac{13}{6}$
