Solve for x over the real numbers: by completing the square:
5 x^2 - 30 x = 5
Divide both sides by 5:
x^2 - 6 x = 1
Add 9 to both sides:
x^2 - 6 x + 9 = 10
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x - 3)^2 = 10
Take the square root of both sides:
x - 3 = sqrt(10) or x - 3 = -sqrt(10)
Add 3 to both sides:
x = 3 + sqrt(10) or x - 3 = -sqrt(10)
Add 3 to both sides:
Answer: | x = 3 + sqrt(10) or x = 3 - sqrt(10)
10/4 + 1/3 = 17/6
step 1: reduce the fraction with 2:
5/2 + 1/3
step 2: write all numerators above the common denominator 6:
15 + 2/ 6
step 3: add the numbers:
17/6
I believe the answer is C.
???????????? I don’t get it?
216 = 6s^2
can be solved in the following manner.
216/6=s^2
36 = s^2
sqrt(36) = s
flip for better overview
s = 6
the length of each side is 6 inches. :)
