(8+n)*-4=-12
-32-4n=-12
-4n=20
n=-5

Sum of n and 8 = (n + 8)

Multiplied by -4  =  -4*(n + 8)

Result = -12

-4*(n + 8) = -12            Divide both sides by -4

(n + 8) = -12/-4

n + 8 = 3

n = 3 - 8

n  = -5.

The number is -5.

The sum of three numbers is 8. twice the smaller is 2 less than the largest, while the sum of the largest and smallest is 5. use
Lorico [155]
X + Y + Z = 8
2x = Z - 2
X + Z = 5
X = 1
1 + Y + Z = 8
Y + Z = 6
1 + Z = 5
Z = 4
1 + Y + 4 = 8
5 + Y = 8
Y = 3
The variables are 1, 3, 4.

Solve the equation by completing the square round to the nearest hundredth is necessary x^2-x-7=0
masha68 [24]

The answers are 3.19 or -2.19.

In order to complete the square, you must first get the constant to the other side of the equation. WE do that by adding 7 to both sides.

x^2 - x - 7 = 0

x^2 - x = 7

Now we must take half of the x coefficient (-1), which would be -.5. Then we square it and add it to both sides. This is the second step to any completing the square problem.

x^2 - x = 7

x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25

Now that we have done that, the left side will be a perfect square so that, we can factor it.

x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25

(x - .5)^2 = 7.25

After having done that, we can take the square root of both sides

(x - .5)^2 = 7.25

x - .5 = +/-\sqrt{7.25}

Now we can take the value of that square root and solve.

x - .5 = +/-\sqrt{7.25}

x - .5 = +/-2.69

x = .5 +/- 2.69

And with the + and - both there, we need to do both to get the two answers.

.5 + 2.69 = 3.19

.5 - 2.69 = -2.19
