The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.
When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5). 5/2=2.5. We then square this number: 2.5²=6.25. We add this value to both sides of the equation:
x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25
(x+2.5)² = 8.25
Take the square root of both sides:
√(x+2.5)² = √8.25
x + 2.5 = 2.87
Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"
x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5
x = 0.37
We have to take the positive and negative values for solutions, however, since a square root has both positive and negative answers.
Answer: 7500
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 150 by 50
Approximately 3.849 is the cube root of 57 cube root.
1. 2x^2-x-15=0
A = 2
B = -1
C = -15
2. 10^2-2x=0
A = 10
B = -2
C = 0
3. x^2–3x-40=0
A = 1
B = -3
C = -40
4. x^2+3x-2=0
A = 1
B = 3
C = -2
5. 4x^2-17x+8=0
A = 4
B = -17
C = 8
Remember the equations should look like Ax^2+Bx+C=0 (in this order!!)
