Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=4\pm2\sqrt6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2-6x+12=2x+20\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{and}\ 12\ \text{from both sides}\\\\x^2-8x=8\\\\x^2-2(x)(4)=8\qquad\text{add}\ 4^2=16\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(4)+4^2=8+4^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\(x-4)^2=24\iff x-4=\pm\sqrt{24}\\\\x-4=\pm\sqrt{4\cdot6}\\\\x-4=\pm\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt6\\\\x-4=\pm2\sqrt6\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\x=4\pm2\sqrt6$

A jar contains 6 yellow marbles, 4 black marbles, and 2 purple marbles. Two marbles are picked at random, without replacement. W

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the number of yellow marbles = 6

Black marbles = 4

Purple marble = 2

Now find the total number of marbles in the jar.

Thus total marbles = Yellow marbles + Black marbles + Purples marble

Now insert the values in the above formula.

Total marbles = 6 + 4 + 2

Total marbles = 12

The probability of 2 yellow marble:

$= \frac{6}{12} \times \frac{5}{11} \\= \frac{5}{22}$

Thus, the probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.

The length of a rectangle is 10 yards more than the width. If the perimeter is 68 yards, what are the length and width?

quester [9]

Divide the perimeter by 2, this will give you the sum of one length and one width.

68/2 = 34 yards

Now the length is 10 yards more, so subtract 10 from the 34 and divide by 2 again:

34 - 10 = 24

24 /2 = 12

The width is 12 yards.

The length is 12 + 10 = 22 yards.

Accelerating is not an option in executing a decision. True or false

stiv31 [10]

Accelerating is not an option in executing a decision.

This is false.

Accelerating or driving in high speed does not specify any execution of any sort of action or decision. Rather it can depend on the course of driving like changing lanes or something related to emergency.

Answer:

= 4sqrt3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2i sqrt -12

= -2i * i sqrt12 <-- i^2 = -1

= -2i^2sqrt12

= -2(-1)sqrt12

= 2sqrt12

= 2 * 2 sqrt3

= 4sqrt3
