Suppose you draw a line from the center of a clock face to the number 12. When the minute hand gets to 3 on the clock face, the

line and minute hand form a 90 degree angle. What angle does the line and the minute hand make when the minute hand is on 2?

It makes an acute angle.

Just divide 90 by three so whe it hits 3 its 90 then 2 is 60 degrees and the one is 30 degrees

Solve (x + 3)2 + (x + 3) – 2 = 0. Let u = Rewrite the equation in terms of u. (u2 + 3) + u – 2 = 0 u2 + u – 2 = 0 (u2 + 9) + u –

Answer:

The solutions of the original equation are x=-5 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(x+3)^2+(x+3)-2=0$

Let

$u=(x+3)$

Rewrite the equation

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

Complete the square

$u^2+u=2$

$u^2+u+1/4=2+1/4$

$u^2+u+1/4=9/4$

rewrite as perfect squares

$(u+1/2)^2=9/4$

square root both sides

$(u+1/2)=\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)+\frac{3}{2}=1$

$u=(-1/2)-\frac{3}{2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Alternative Method</em>

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

so

$a=1\\b=1\\c=-2$

substitute in the formula

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(1)(-2)}} {2(1)}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{9}} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm3} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1+3} {2}=1$

$u=\frac{-1-3} {2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Find the solutions of the original equation</em>

For u=-2

$-2=(x+3)$ ----> $x=-2-3=-5$

For u=1

$1=(x+3)$ ----> $x=1-3=-2$

therefore

The solutions of the original equation are

x=-5 and x=-2
