Answer:

x = 8.6603 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the length of a side of the square, the area of the square will be x^2.

So, if the area of the square is 75 ft2, we can formulate the quadratic equation:

x^2 = 75

Now, solving the equation, we just need to make the square root of 75:

x = sqrt(75) = ±8.6603

x1 = 8.6603

x2 = -8.6603

Now, as x represents the length of a side of the square, and measurements can't be negative, we take only the positive value, so:

x = 8.6603 m

Complete the square for 5x^2-30x=5
Nikitich [7]

Solve for x over the real numbers: by completing the square:

5 x^2 - 30 x = 5

Divide both sides by 5:

x^2 - 6 x = 1

Add 9 to both sides:

x^2 - 6 x + 9 = 10

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 3)^2 = 10

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 3 = sqrt(10) or x - 3 = -sqrt(10)

Add 3 to both sides:

x = 3 + sqrt(10) or x - 3 = -sqrt(10)

Add 3 to both sides:

Answer: | x = 3 + sqrt(10) or x = 3 - sqrt(10)

Simplify 3 sqrt 5x * 3 sqrt 25x^ 2 completely.​
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

=45x√5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The provided expression is: 3√5x×3√25x²

We can simplify 3√25x² because √25x²=5x

3×5x=15x

Combine with the rest of the expression through multiplication.

3√5x×15x

=45x√5x

The expression 3√5x×3√25x² is equivalent to 45x√5x.

The expected simplified answer is 45x√5x
