What value or values of x satisfy 2x + 5.31 = 4.2?

Mathematics

Softa [21]3 years ago

Answer:  x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct expression is:

2|x+5.3|=4.2

So, we have an absolute value equation, where it can be positive or negative:

  • Positive

2 (x+5.3)=4.2

2x+10.6 =4.2

2x=4.2-10.6

2x = -6.4

x= -6.4/2

x = -3.2

  • Negative

2[-(x+5.3)]=4.2

-2x-10.6 =4.2

-2x= 4.2+10.6

-2x= 14.8

x= 14.8/-2

x= -7.4

x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.

The perimeter of rectangle living room is 40 m the living room is 10 m wide what is the length of the living room
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Width of the room = 5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

the rectangular living room is calculated as length * width

The area is given to be equal to 40 sq. meters (area = 40 sq. meters)

Let the width = x meters

Length = X+3 meters

Area = Length * Width

40 = X * (X+3)

40 = X^2 + 3X

We solve this quadratic equation

So x = 5 or x= -8

Width  cannot be negative, so we reject x =-8

So x = 5 is the answer

Find the value of the missing coefficient in the factored form of 8f^3-216g^3
adoni [48]

Answer:

The value of the missing coefficient is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to factorize the difference of two cubes

- The factorization of the difference of two cubes like a³ - b³, is a

  product of a binomial and trinomial

- The binomial is the cube root of the first term and the second term

∵ The ∛a³ = a and ∛b³ = b

∴ The binomial is (a - b)

- We will find the trinomial from the binomial by square the 1st term

 of the binomial and multiply the 1st term and the 2nd term of the

 binomial with opposite sign of the binomial and square the 2nd

 term of the binomial

∴ The trinomial is (a² + ab + b²

∴ The factorization of (a³ - b³) is (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

* Lets solve the problem

∵ 8f³ - 216g³ is the difference of two cubes

∵ ∛(8f³) = 2f

∵ ∛(216g³) = 6g

∴ The binomial is (2f - 6g)

- Lets make the trinomial

∵ (2f)² = 4f²

∵ (2f)(6g) = 12fg

∵ (6g)² = 36g²

∴ The trinomial = (4f² + 12fg + 36g²)

∴ The factorization of 8f³ - 216g³ = (2f - 6g)(4f² + 12fg + 36g²)

∴ The value of the missing coefficient is 12
