By multiplication, 12*(1/4) = 3
by division, 12/4 = 3
in words, a quarter of 12 is 3
If G(x) = 39, then
5/2x - 7/2 = 39
Multiplying both sides by 2, we get
5x - 7 = 78
5x = 78 + 7
5x = 85
x = 17
I hope this answer helps!
(x + 2)² - 10 = 0 (assuming it's equal to zero)
Expand the binomial: (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²
Thus, x² + 4x + 4 - 10 = 0
x² + 4x - 6 = 0

(by quadratic formula)



, since we're taking the positive solution.
Answer:
The solution to the equation is x = 0.38 or -18.38
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+18x=7 can be properly written as

To solve by completing the square, divide the coefficient of x by 2, square and then add to both sides
i.e 18/2 = 9
Then add 9² to both sides of the equation

This becomes





∴ 

Hence, x = 0.38 or -18.38
