Solve by completing the square with working out -6x-x^2-8

Mathematics
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -3 +/- sqrt(17)

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x - (x^2) - 8 = 0

-((x^2) + 6x + 8) = 0

(x^2) + 6x + 8 = 0

(x + 3)^2 - 1 = 0

(x + 3)^2 = 1

x + 3 = +/- sqrt(1)

x + 3 = +/- 1

x = -3 +/- 1

x = -4, -2

Which condition must be satisfied in order to use the arc length formula L = the integral from a to b of sqrt(1 + f'(x)^2) dx?
ivanzaharov [21]
Looking through my old calc notes, I am reading that f(x) needs to be continuous on [a,b] and f ' (x) also needs to be continuous on [a,b]. Both conditions are needed. If you had to pick just one, then I'd say f(x) being continuous is much more important. Though I'm not 100% sure on this one. My thinking is that if there was any discontinuities on f(x), then the arc length would be distorted and overblown. The arc length should not account for any piece that isn't on the curve.

Henry is saving money to buy a game. so far he has saved $12 , which is three-fourths of the total cost of the game. how much do
vazorg [7]
Henry has 3 / 4 0f total cost so,
Let ( a ) is total cost of game

So,
3/4 × a = total cost


12 = 3/ 4 × a

4 will multiply with 12 so,

12 x 4 = 3 a

48 = 3a

48 / 3= a
