Answer:

x = -5 or  x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is :

x²+9x+20 = 0

We have to solve it by factoring.

Step 1.  Split the middle term of given equation so that the sum of two term should be 9 and their product be 20.

x²+5x+4x+20 = 0

Step 2.  Making groups ang taking common terms.

x(x+5)+4(x+5) = 0

Step 3.  Taking (x+5) as common,we get

(x+5)(x+4) = 0

Step 4. Applying Zero-Product Property to above equation,we get

x+5 = 0 or x+4 = 0

x = -5 or  x = -4 which is the answer.

Answer:

We have been given an equation x^2+9x+20=0

We will factorize it by  middle term splitting.

Step 1: x^2+5x+4x+20=0

Taking common factors out by clubing first two terms ad last two terms

Step 2: x(x+5)+4(x+5)=0

Step 3: (x+4)(x+5)=0

Equating both above factors to zero as:

Step 4: (x+4)=0\Rightarrow x=-4

   And (x+5)=0\Rightarrow x=-5.

Evaluate f(x)=e2x−1+2 when x=3. Give an approximate answer rounded to three decimal places.
olganol [36]

Answer:

f(3) ≈ 17.310

Step-by-step explanation:

e = 2.71828

Step 1: Define

f(x) = e2x - 1 + 2

x = 3

Step 2: Substitute and evaluate

f(3) = e2(3) - 1 + 2

f(3) = 6e + 1

f(3) = 16.3097 + 1

f(3) = 17.3097

f(3) ≈ 17.310
