Given

a\sqrt{x+b}+c=d

we have

\sqrt{x+b}=\dfrac{d-c}{a}

Squaring both sides, we have

x+b=\dfrac{(d-c)^2}{a^2}

And finally

x=\dfrac{(d-c)^2}{a^2}-b

Note that, when we square both sides, we have to assume that

\dfrac{d-c}{a}>0

because we're assuming that this fraction equals a square root, which is positive.

So, if that fraction is positive you'll actually have roots: choose

a=1,\ b=0,\ c=2,\ d=6

and you'll have

\sqrt{x}+2=6 \iff \sqrt{x}=4 \iff x=16

Which is a valid solution. If, instead, the fraction is negative, you'll have extraneous roots: choose

a=1,\ b=0,\ c=10,\ d=4

and you'll have

\sqrt{x}+10=4 \iff \sqrt{x}=-6

Squaring both sides (and here's the mistake!!) you'd have

x=36

which is not a solution for the equation, if we plug it in we have

\sqrt{x}+10=4 \implies \sqrt{36}+10=4 \implies 6+10=4

Which is clearly false

Find the slope of the line between (1,5) and (3,9)
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation: Use the two points that are given to you and substitute them into the slope formula to find the answer.

m=<u><em>y2-y1/x2-x1</em></u>

m=9-5/3-1

m=4/2

Simplify the answer.

m=4/2

m=2/1

Final answer is 2.

The slope is positive meaning it is ascending (going up).

<u><em>Hope this helps!</em></u>

Juan was given a gift card for a coffee shop. Each morning, Juan uses the card to buy one cup of coffee. Each cup of coffee cost
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

A=30-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one cup of coffee=$2

The original amount of money on the gift card= $30

Juan's expenses in buying coffee, after x morning are \$2\times x.

The amount of money left, A, on the card = (Original amount) - (Total expenses)

A=30-2x

Hence, the equation for, A, the amount of money remaining on the card is

A=30-2x.
