Solve the question 2w^2-8w-1=(w-2)^2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

w= 7/4 +1/4 √89 OR w= 7/4 -1/4 √89

Step-by-step explanation:

2w^2-8w-1= (w-2)^2

Multiply (w-2)^2 by (-1)

2w^2-8w-1= -w+2^2

Add w to both sides

2w^2-7w-1= 4

Add 1 to both sides therefore that -1 cancels

2w^2-7w=5

Get the equation equal to 0 by subtracting 5 from both sides

2w^2-7w-5=0

Use the quadratic formula to solve

x= -(-7) plus or minus √(-7)-4(2)(-5)/2(2)

7 plus or minus √89/4

Solve –2k + 12 < 30 for k.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

k<-9

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to isolate the variable, or k in this case. So you will subtract 12 on both sides which will leave you with -2k<18. Then you will divide both sides by -2. Which turns into k>-9. But since you divided by a negative, the sign changes, so the answer would be k<-9.

Gemma recently rode her bicycle to visit her friend who lives 6 miles away. On her way there, her average speed was 16 miles per
DochEvi [55]

first speed --- x mph

return speed -- x+16 mph

6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1

times each term by x(x+16)

6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)

x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0

(x-8)(x+12) = 0

x = 8 or x is a negative

her first speed was 8 mph

her return speed was 24 mph

check:

6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!
