Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 16 from each side

x+16-16 =23-16

x = 7

Patel is solving 8x2 + 16x + 3 = 0. Which steps could he use to solve the quadratic equation? Select three options.
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

<em>8(x2 + 2x) = –3 </em>

<em>8(x2 + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8 </em>

<em>x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving Quadratic Equations </u>

Sometimes it's preferred to solve quadratic equations without the use of the known quadratic formula solver. One of the most-used methods consists of completing squares and solving for x.

We have the equation

\displaystyle 8x^2+16x+3=0

We separate variables from constants

\displaystyle 8x^2+16x=-3

Taking the common factor  8

\displaystyle 8(x^2+2x)=-3

Completing squares in the brackets and balancing the equation in the right side

\displaystyle 8(x^2+2x+1)=-3+8

Factoring the perfect square

\displaystyle 8(x+1)^2=5

Isolating x

\displaystyle (x+1)^2=\frac{5}{8}

\displaystyle (x+1)=\pm \sqrt{\frac{5}{8}}

\displaystyle x=-1\pm \sqrt{\frac{5}{8}}

We can clearly see the steps used to solve the quadratic equation are (in order and written like in the question)

8(x2 + 2x) = –3

8(x2 + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8

x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot

What is 1.83 repeating as a fraction?
maks197457 [2]
The answer to this question would be: 1 5/6

To change a decimal number into fraction, you need to divide the number on the right of decimal point with 1. In this case, the number is 0.83.
This number is hard since .83 doesn't have many factors. To find the answer you can try to multiply the decimal with some number until it close to 1(no decimal left)
0.83* 2= 1.66
0.83* 3= 2.49 ---> close to half, if you find this number, you can try to double it
0.83* 4= 3.32
0.83* 5= 4.15
0.83* 6= 4.98---> close to 1, that means there is high probability that the number can be divided by 6 
0.83 would be 4.98/6, but if we assume that the number is 0.8333...... then 0.83 would be 5/6. So, 1.83 would be 1 5/6
