Answer:

x = 6 + 2√2  and  x = 6 - 2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write the " ^ " symbol between x and 2 here:  x^2 - 12x = -28.

Take half the coefficient of x; here that is -6.

Square this, obtaining 36.

Add 36 to, and then subtract 36 from, x^2 - 12x:  x^2 - 12x + 36 - 36.

Rewrite  x^2 - 12x + 36 as the square of a binomial:  (x - 6)^2.

Then rewrite  x^2 - 12x = -28  as (x - 6)^2 - 36 = -28.

Simplifying, (x - 6)^2 = 8.

Taking the square root of both sides, x - 6 = plus or minus 2√2.


Then the solutions are x = 6 + 2√2  and  x = 6 - 2√2

x^2 -12 x = -28

(-12/2) ^ 2  =36

x^2 -12 x + 36 = -28 + 36

x^2 -12x + 36 = 8

(x-6)^2 = 8

take the square root of each side

x-6 = sqrt (8)    x-6 = -sqrt (8)  

you get a positive and a negative when taking                                                                 the square root

x= 6 + sqrt (8)  

x = 6 - sqrt (8)

sqrt (8) = 2 sqrt (2)

x= 6 + 2 sqrt (2)

x = 6 - 2 sqrt (2)

Answer:

x= 6 + 2 sqrt (2)

x = 6 - 2 sqrt (2)

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality y - 3x < -8?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality y - 3x < -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check which ordered pairs from given options satisfy the inequality y - 3x < -8

Ordered pairs are solutions to inequality if they satisfy the inequality

Checking each options by pitting values of x and y in given inequality

A ) (1, -5)

-5-3(1)

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

B) (-3, - 2)

-2-3(-3) < -8\\-2-9

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

C) (0, -9)

-9-3(0)

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

D) (2, -1)

-1-3(2)

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

E) (5, 4)​​​

4-3(5)

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

So, Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality y - 3x < -8

D(n)=5/16(2)^n-1<br><br> please help lol
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

In this maths tutorial, we introduce exponents / powers and roots using formulas, solved examples and practice questions.

Powers and Roots | Formulas, Solved Examples, Practice Problems

Exponents, also called powers, are a way of expressing a number multiplied by itself by a certain number of times.

When we write a number a, it is actually a1, said as a to the power 1.

a2 = a*a

a3 = a*a*a

:

:

an = a*a*a*a* . . . n times.

Basic formulas in Powers and Roots

Some basic formulas used to solve questions on exponents are:

(am)n = (an)m = amn

am.an = am+n

a-m = 1/am

am/an = am-n = 1/an-m

(ab)n = anbn

(a/b)n = an/bn

a0 = 1
