Answer:

the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case I would immediately rewrite n² - 2n - 5 = 10 as

n² - 2n                  = 10 + 5 = 15.

To complete the square:  Identify the coefficient of n (it is -2). Halve that, obtaining -1, square this result, and then add the outcome (1) to and subtract the outcome (1) to n² - 2n:

n² - 2n  <em>+ 1 - 1   </em>             = 15

Next, rewrite n² - 2n  + 1 as the square of a binomial:

(n - 1)² = 15

Finally, take the square root of both sides:

n - 1 = ±√15

so that the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15

Solve - pv + 40 &lt; 65 for v<br> solve 7w - 3r = 15 for r
Katarina [22]

Answer:

v > -25/p

r = -5 +7/3 w

Step-by-step explanation:

- pv + 40 < 65

Subtract 40 from each side

- pv + 40-40 < 65-40

-pv < 25

Divide each side by -p  (remember to flip the inequality since we are dividing by a negative)

-pv/-p > 25/-p

v > -25/p


7w - 3r = 15

Subtract 7w from each side

7w-7w - 3r = 15-7w

-3r = 15-7w

Divide by -3

-3r/-3 = (15-7w)/-3

r = -5 +7/3 w
