<span>4|2x − 2| + 10 = 34
</span><span>4|2x − 2| + 10 - 10 = 34 - 10
</span><span>4|2x − 2| = 24
</span><span>|2x − 2| = 24/4 = 6
2x - 2 = 6 or 2x - 2 = -6
2x = 6 + 2 or 2x = -6 + 2
2x = 8 or 2x = -4
x = 8/2 or x = -4/2
x = 4 or x = -2

To check for extraneous solutions:
</span>For x = 4: <span>
4|2(4) − 2| + 10 = 34 
4</span><span>|8 − 2| = 34 - 10 = 24
6 = 24/4 = 6       (solution is valid)

</span><span>For x = -2: <span>
4|2(-2) − 2| + 10 = 34 
4</span><span>|-4 − 2| = 34 - 10 = 24
</span></span><span><span><span>|-6| = </span>6 = 24/4 = 6       (solution is valid)  </span>
</span>
Therefore, solutions are x = 4 , x = -2

The function f is defined by f(x) x2 -6x +21. What are the solutions of f(x) 0? Show your work.
Xelga [282]

f(x)= x^2 -6x +21

0 =x^2-6x+21

subtract 21 from each side to prepare for completing the square

-21 = x^2 -6x

completing the square (b/2)^2

(-6/2) ^ =3^2 = 9

add 9 to each side

-21 +9 = x^2 - 6x + 9

-21 +9 =(x-3) ^2

-12 = (x-3)^2

take the square root of each side

+- sqrt(-12) = x-3

add 3 to each side, take out the negative inside the square root

3 +- i sqrt(12)=x

simplify the square root  sqrt(12)= sqrt(4)sqrt(3) =2sqrt(3)

3 +- i 2sqrt (3) = x

Answer: 3+2isqrt(3)

            3-2isqrt(3)

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The solution of the given equations are (3,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are :

3d−e=7 ...(1)

d+e=5 ...(2)

Add equations (1) and (2) we get :

3d-e+d+e=7+5

4d = 12

d = 3

Put the value of d in equation (2).

3+e=5

e = 2

So, the value of d = 3 and e = 2. Solution of the given equations are (3,2).
