X2+6x-3=0 solve by completing the square

Mathematics

Delicious77 [7]3 years ago
4 0

To answer the question we need to first see the formula for completing the square, x^2+6x-3=0 is in the form of ax^2+bx-c, a=1, b=6, and c=-3. You'll need to find the constant now, which is nine.

a=1,​ b=6, c=−3  

x^2+6x+9−9−3

Now you need to use another formula, Square of Sum: (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 then simplify.

(x+3)^2−9−3=(x+3)^2−12

Now we need to put the simplified equation back into the original equation. After that, take the square root of both sides and make √12 into 2√3.

(x+3)^2=12

x+3=±√12

x+3=±2√3

Now make x+3=±2√3 two different two equations and solve them. After that, collect the solutions and then you'll be finished!

x+3=2√3 & x+3=-2√3

x=2√3-3 & x=-2√3-3

x=2√3-3, -2√3-3

Now you know the answer as well as the formula. Hope this helps, have a BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY, as well as an amazing super bowl weekend!

Suppose that we have constructed a 95% confidence interval for the true mean salary of graduating business majors: (50k, 70k). B
slava [35]

Answer:

d. 60k

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean is the midpoint between the lower and the upper limit of the confidence interval, that is, the sum of the lower and the upper limit divided by 2.

In this problem, we have that:

Lower limit: 50k

Upper limit: 70k

(50k + 70k)/2 = 60k

So the correct answer is:

d. 60k

-11 2/3 x (-4 1/5) =
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first make the improper fractions into proper fractions by multiplying the whole number with the denominator and adding it to the numerator

-11 2/3

-11*3=-33

-33+2=-31

-31/3

-19/5

then multiply

-31*-19=589

5*3=15

589/15 is your answer

If an elevation 20 meters below sea level is represented by the number -20, which of the following can best be represented by th
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Your answer would be B. An elevation at sea level
This is because if you picture it like a grid, -20 on the y axis is below 0, and 0 on the y axis is the y axis, so it would be on sea level.

I hope this helps!
