Answer:
- (x +1)² = 4
- (D) x = -1 ±2
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by getting the x-terms on one side of the equal sign. We can do that by subtracting x from both sides.
3 = x² +2x
Now, add the square of half the x-coefficient.
3 +1 = x² +2x +1
(x +1)² = 4 . . . . . . . . write as a square in the desired form
__
To solve, take the square root, and add the opposite of the left-side constant.
x +1 = ±2
x = -1 ±2 . . . . . . matches choice (D)
You have an algebraic expression in which you are solving for x. When you are solving for a variable, you need to isolate it all alone. Since you are multiplying by 1/5, you will have to undo it by multiplying by its reciprocal. In this case you are multiplying both sides by 5/1.
5/1 *1/5x = 121*5/1
x = 605
To check your answer, plug this value in for x and multiply it by 1/5. You should arrive at 121! Good luck!
2L + 2(L-6) = 68
2L + 2L -12 = 68
4L = 80
L = 20
The length is 20 in. and the width is 14 in.
Per means divide. So..
Step 1. Find ur equation. 63\3
Step 2. Solve ur equation. 63\3 = 21
I think thats right.
