If BAC = 320°, what is the measure of BC?
melisa1 [442]

Completing the square
alrighty
minus 31 both sides
x²+12x=-31
take 1/2 of the linear coefient and square it
12 is the linear coefient
12/2=6, (6)²=36
add that to both sides
x²+12x+36=36-31
factor perfect square trinomial
(x+6)²=5
square root both sides, remember to take positive and negative root

x+6=+/-√5


so what you want to write is
x+6=√5 and
x+6=-√5

the solutions
minus 6 both sides

x=-6+√5 and -6-√5

Together, teammates Pedro and Ricky got 2680 base hits last season. Pedro had 276 more hits than Ricky. How many hits did each p
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Ricky it is 1,202

And for Pedro = 1,202 + 276 = 1,478

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Let us assume the ricky be x

So pedro be x + 276

Now the equation is

x + x + 276 = 2680

2x + 276 = 2680

2x = 2680 - 276

2x = 2404

x = 1,202

For Ricky it is 1,202

And for Pedro = 1,202 + 276 = 1,478
