What is the solution to 2x2+8x=x2-16?

Mathematics

natita [175]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 2x²+8x = x²-16

=> 2x²- x² + 8x + 16 = 0

=> x² + 8x + 16 = 0

<u><em>Using mid-term break formula</em></u>

=> x² + 4x + 4x + 16 = 0

=> x(x+4)+4(x+4) = 0

=> (x+4)(x+4) = 0

=> (x+4)² = 0

<em>Taking square root on both sides</em>

=> x+4 = 0

=> x = -4

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (2x2 +  8x) -  (x2 - 16)  = 0

2. Factoring  x2+8x+16  

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  +8x  its coefficient is  8 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +16  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 16 = 16  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  16  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   8 .

     -16    +    -1    =    -17  

     -8    +    -2    =    -10  

     -4    +    -4    =    -8  

     -2    +    -8    =    -10  

     -1    +    -16    =    -17  

     1    +    16    =    17  

     2    +    8    =    10  

     4    +    4    =    8    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  4  and  4  

                    x2 + 4x + 4x + 16

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   x • (x+4)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   4 • (x+4)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (x+4)  •  (x+4)

            Which is the desired factorization

Multiply  (x+4)  by  (x+4)  

The rule says : To multiply exponential expressions which have the same base, add up their exponents.

In our case, the common base is  (x+4)  and the exponents are :

         1 , as  (x+4)  is the same number as  (x+4)1  

and   1 , as  (x+4)  is the same number as  (x+4)1  

The product is therefore,  (x+4)(1+1) = (x+4)2

(x + 4)2  = 0

3.

Solve  :    (x+4)2 = 0  

 (x+4) 2 represents, in effect, a product of 2 terms which is equal to zero

For the product to be zero, at least one of these terms must be zero. Since all these terms are equal to each other, it actually means :   x+4  = 0

Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :  

                     x = -4

PLEASE ANSWER ITS DUE SO SOON
geniusboy [140]

the line is negative because it goes down as you move right

slope = rise/run = 4/2 = 2

y = 2x+b

use a point on the line - I picked (-4, 3)

3 = 2(-4)+b

3 = -8+b

11 = b

<h2>y = 2x +11</h2>

If the given values in a right triangle are cos A =
Vlad1618 [11]
See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²---->  equation 1

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2

the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2

Need help....... thx
Blababa [14]

I got 75582.

Explanation:

First, group the 40 identical candies into 20 pairs. It doesn't matter how since the candies are identical. This grouping will ensure that any assigment will contain at least two candies.

Then think of the 20 groups a 20 beads on a string. We are looking to place 11 separators between them to obtain 12 segments, each with a varying number of beads between them. How many ways are there to place 11 separators to 19 potential spaces between beads? The asnwer is n = {19\choose{11}}=75582
