Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
To begin, distribute the 2 to the x and -9.
So...
2 ( x - 9 ) = 10
2x - 18 = 10
2x = 28
x = 14
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
Jake's error in step 3
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Complete the square
step 1
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation
step 2
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side
step 3
Rewrite as perfect squares
Jake's error in step 3
He placed 6 instead of 3 in the left side
step 4
take square root both sides
step 5
step 6
step 7
x=5 and x=1
“huh” is the interjection!
Step-by-step explanation:
x and y are roughly in a linear relationship.
when x increases by 2 units, then also y increases by more or less 2 units.
when x increases by 3 units, then also y increases by more or less 3 units.
it is not precise, but a good approximation model.
