Rewrite the equation by completing the square. x^2 +7x +12 = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(x+7/2)^2-1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +7x +12 = 0

Write x^2+7x+12 in the form x^2+2ax+a^2: 2a=7; a=7/2

Add and subtract 7/2^2: x^2+7x+12+(7/2)^2-(7/2)^2

Complete the square: (x+7/2)^2+12-(7/2)^2

Simplify: (x+7/2)^2-1/4

Step 1: 12x – 15 – 12x = 7x + 20
stealth61 [152]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. 12x - 15 - 12x = 7x + 20

step 2. 12x - 12x - 15 = 7x + 20 (grouping of terms)

step 3. -15 = 7x + 20 (adding like terms)

step 4. -35 = 7x (subtract 20 from both sides)

step 5. this step is incorrect.

step 6. -5 = x ( divide both sides by 7)

step 7. x = -5 (put the variable first).

Find the volume of the pyramid.
astraxan [27]
Okay , so first you need to know what volume is. Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit,To find the volume of any cube you need to know the length, width and height. The formula to find the volume multiplies the length by the width by the height. The good news for a cube is that the measure of each of these dimensions is exactly the same. Therefore, you can multiply the length of any side three times. so all you need to do is 9*9*12= 972/3 = 324 so the answer is b .

A function is when one variable or term depends on another according to a rule. There is a special relationship between the two variables of the function where each value in the input applies to only one value in the output. These rules are called function rules<span>, because they explain how the function operates.

What is the solution set of [1/x-2]&lt;-2
BigorU [14]

Answer:

  3/2 < x < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the problem is ...

  [tek]\dfrac{1}{x-2}<-2[/tex]

This will not be true for x-2 > 0 because that would make the left side positive. So, we must have x < 2, which makes the denominator negative. Multiplying by (x-2), we get ...

  1 > -2(x -2)

  1 > -2x +4

  2x > 3 . . . . . . add 2x-1

  x > 3/2

From above, we also have x < 2, so the solution set is ...

  3/2 < x < 2
