Answer:

  x = -2.5 ± √14.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5x to prepare for "completing the square."

  x² +5x = 8

Add the square of half the x-coefficient:

  x² +5x + 2.5² = 8 + 2.5²

  (x +2.5)² = 14.25

Take the square root.

  x +2.5 = ±√14.25

Subtract 2.5.

  x = -2.5 ± √14.25 ≈ {-6.27492, 1.27592}

Which expression equivalent to 9q^ 2 - 2 3 (3q-7)+5q^ 2 ? a 9q ^ 2 - 5/3 * q - 3 b 9q ^ 2 - 2q - 3 14q ^ 2 - 2q + 14/3 d 14q ^ 2
Veronika [31]

The equivalent expression of 9q^ 2 - 2/3(3q - 7) + 5q^2 is 14q^ 2 - 2q - 14/3

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

9q^ 2 - 2/3(3q - 7) + 5q^2

Open the bracket

9q^ 2 - 2q - 14/3 + 5q^2

Evaluate the like terms

14q^ 2 - 2q - 14/3

Hence, the equivalent expression of 9q^ 2 - 2/3(3q - 7) + 5q^2 is 14q^ 2 - 2q - 14/3

Answer:

x=7 and m<LMN = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

if MO bisects LMN then 13x - 31 must be equal to x + 53

13x - x = 53 + 31

12x = 84

x = 7

and

13x - 31 + x + 53 = m<LMN

14x + 22 = m<LMN

since x is 7

14×7 + 22 = 120
