Solving for x

Since x is on the right hand side of the equation switch the sides so it is on the left hand side of the equation.
2x+yi=−14−3i

Since yi does not contain the variable to solve for move it to the right-hand side of the equation by subtracting yi from both sides.
2x=−yi−14−3i

Divide each term in the equation by 2.

x=−yi/2−7−3i/2

Solving for y

Since y is on the right hand side of the equation switch the sides so it is on the left hand side of the equation.
2x+yi=−14−3i

Since 2x does not contain the variable to solve for move it to the right hand side of the equation by subtracting 2x from both sides.
yi=−2x−14−3i

Divide each term in the equation by i.

y=2xi+14i−3

x=−yi/2−7−3i/2
y=2xi+14i−3

Find the area of the figure.

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

33 units squared is the area of the shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the the area of the orange (bookmark) shape would be 42 units squared total, since the length is 7 and width is 6 (or vice versa) Now, all we need to find is how many squares inside the rest of the small portion to fill in the shape and subtract that from 42. Adding the squares and half squares in the small portion, I got 9. 42-9 is 33 units squared

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square. x²–2x-12=0

inn [45]

Answer:

$(x-1)^2-13=0$

$x = \sqrt{13}+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Completing the square is a method of rewriting a quadratic equation in the standard form such that it is in vertex form. The first step is to group the linear and quadratic terms, then factor out the coefficient of the quadratic term. After doing so, complete the square, add a value such that the linear and quadratic terms form a perfect square trinomial. Do not forget to balance the equation. The final step is to simplify.

$x^2-2x-12=0$
