Solve (x + 3)2 + (x + 3) – 2 = 0. Let u = Rewrite the equation in terms of u. (u2 + 3) + u – 2 = 0 u2 + u – 2 = 0 (u2 + 9) + u –

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The solutions of the original equation are x=-5 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(x+3)^2+(x+3)-2=0$

Let

$u=(x+3)$

Rewrite the equation

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

Complete the square

$u^2+u=2$

$u^2+u+1/4=2+1/4$

$u^2+u+1/4=9/4$

rewrite as perfect squares

$(u+1/2)^2=9/4$

square root both sides

$(u+1/2)=\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)+\frac{3}{2}=1$

$u=(-1/2)-\frac{3}{2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Alternative Method</em>

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

so

$a=1\\b=1\\c=-2$

substitute in the formula

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(1)(-2)}} {2(1)}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{9}} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm3} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1+3} {2}=1$

$u=\frac{-1-3} {2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Find the solutions of the original equation</em>

For u=-2

$-2=(x+3)$ ----> $x=-2-3=-5$

For u=1

$1=(x+3)$ ----> $x=1-3=-2$

therefore

The solutions of the original equation are

x=-5 and x=-2

Find the value of c that makes x^2–6x + c a perfect square trinomial and write as a binomial squared.

denpristay [2]

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The function is $x^2-6x+c$

To make it a perfect square, compare it with $(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab$

Here,

$x=a,\\-6x=-2ab\\\\\therefore b=3$

So, c must be square of b i.e. 9

$x^2-6x+c\Rightarrow x^2-6x+9\\\Rightarrow (x-3)^2$

Therefore, value of c is 9.
