X^2+3x=24, halve the linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides
In this case (3/2)^2=2.25
x^2+3x+2.25=26.25 now the left side is a perfect square...
(x+1.5)^2=26.25 take the square root of both sides
x+1.5=±√26.25 subtract 1.5 from both sides
x=-1.5±√26.25
x=-1.5-√26.25 and -1.5+√26.25
x≈ -6.62 and 3.62
Answer:
Hi,
Step-by-step explanation:
x>=0
y>=0
x+y-5<=0 line passing through (0,5) and (5,0) with (0,0) in minus region
2x-y-8<=0 line passing trough (0,-8) and (4,0) with (0,0) in minus region
Answer C
Answer:
It would be 8 years ago.
Step-by-step explanation:
-First, subtract $14.35 from $16.35, which gives you 2.
-Next, remember that $0.25 is a quarter, so how many quarters make $2?
-0.25x4 gives you a dollar, so 0.25x8 gives you 2 dollars.
Hope it helps!
Lots of red herrings in this question! The beacon is circular, so you need to find the area of a circle with a diameter of 36 inches.
Area of a circle = pi x radius^2
remember radius is half the diameter!
