We know that
The square root property<span> is one method that is used to find the solutions to a quadratic equation. This method involves taking the square roots of both sides of the equation.
</span>(x – 3)² – 32 = 17-------> (x – 3)² = 17+32-----------> (x – 3)² = 49
(x – 3)² = 7²--------> <span>will take the square root of each side
</span>so
√(x – 3)²=(+-)√7²------> <span>notice the use of the </span> sign (+-), this will give us both a positive and<span> a negative root
</span>
then
x-3=7--------> x=10
x-3=-7-------> x=-4
the answer Part a) is
x=10
x=-4
Part b) Explain why the given equation has two solutions.
the answer part b) is
Because exist<span> the possibility of two roots for every square root, one positive and one negative</span>

<h3>How to plot the numbers on the number line?</h3>
The numbers are given as:
5.3, 5 1/5 and 5
We start by representing the numbers as decimals (i.e. real numbers).
So, we have:
5.3, 5.2 and 5
Reorder the numbers in ascending number (i.e. from least to greatest)
So, we have
5, 5.2 and 5.3
Next, we plot the numbers on a number line using a scale of 0.1
This can be visualized as
5 5.2 5.3

Answer:
x = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are corresponding angles and corresponding angles are equal if the lines parallel
2x+3 = 71
Subtract 3 from each side
2x+3-3 = 71-3
2x = 68
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 68/2
x = 34
1615/170
We first need to convert this into a proper fraction. Which means that the denominator must be larger than the numerator for it to be proper. Also, since 1615 is BIGGER than 170, we will end up with a mixed fraction. A mixed fraction always has a whole number.
1615 can go into 170 how many times?
9 times
170*9 = 1530
Now subtract.
1615 - 1530 = 85
Now we have our mixed fraction: 9 85/170
Now we must simplify the fraction.
85/5 = 17
170/5 = 34
17/34 is the smallest possible fraction we can get.
9 17/34
Final answer:
