The solution is x=-1 and x=-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is 2x(x+1.5)=-1

Multiplying the term x+1.5 by 2x, we get,

2x^{2} +3x=-1

Adding both sides by 1,

2x^{2} +3x+1=0

Taking factor, we get,

\begin{array}{r}{x^{2}+2 x+x+1=0} \\{2 x(x+1)+1(x+1)=0} \\{(2 x+1)(x+1)=0}\end{array}

Equating the factors to 0,

\begin{aligned}2 x+1 &=0 \\2 x &=-1 \\x &=-\frac{1}{2}\\x&=-0.5\end{aligned} and \begin{aligned}x+1 &=0 \\x &=-1\end{aligned}

Thus, the smaller value is x=-1

The solution is x=-1 and x=-0.5

What value of B makes the expression. x² + Bx + 81 a perfect square trinomial?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

B.) 18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the correct b value we use this formula

b² - 4ac = 0

b = What we are solving for

a = 1

c = 81

b² - 4(1)(81) = 0

b² - 324 = 0

b² = 324

b = \sqrt{324}

b = ±18

And 18 is one of the answer choices

So B.) 18 is the correct answer.
