Answer:

Yes, in order to solve equations make sure to collect terms together - usually this makes the problem a lot easier to solve!

So subtract 5x from both sides to get

3 = 5x - 2

add 2 to both sides to get

5x = 5

now divide both sides by 5 to get

x = 1

Sail with the equation by completing the square x^2+8x=-3

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The solutions are $x=-4(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$x^{2} +8x=-3$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$x^{2} +8x+16=-3+16$

$x^{2} +8x+16=13$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+4)^{2}=13$

square root both sides

$x+4=(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

$x=-4(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

Simplify the following expression

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

A.( 3m+28)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically since it is addition we just add 9 to -2 to get 7. So then the equation becomes (3m/4)+7. Then we will multiply 7 by 4 to get common denominator so it will be (3m+(7*4))/4 which is (3m+28)/4.

Adiya said that the first step to solving the quadratic equation x2 + 6 = 20x by completing the square was to divide 6 by 2, squ

kicyunya [14]

Adiya’s method is not correct. To form a perfect square trinomial, the constant must be isolated on one side of the equation. Also, the coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 on the variable is used to find the constant in the perfect square trinomial. Adiya should first get the 20x term on the same side of the equation as x2. Then she would divide 20 by 2, square it, and add 100 to both sides.

A two-factor study with two levels of factor A and three levels of factor B uses a separate group of n = 5 participants in each

Mashcka [7]

Answer: There are 30 participants are needed for the entire study.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of levels of factor A = 2

Number of levels of factor B = 3

Number of participants in each treatment condition = 5

So, the number of participants are needed for the entire study is given by

$2\times 3\times 5\\\\=6\times 5\\\\=30$

Hence, there are 30 participants are needed for the entire study.
