Answer:
(B)
4 +/- 3 sqrt(2) or 4+3sqrt(2) and 4-3sqrt(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
4(c-4)^2=72
4(c-4)(c-4)=72
foil the parenthesis (first, outside, inside, last)
4(c^2 -4c -4c +16)=72
4(c^2-8c+16)=72
divide each side by 4
c^2-8c+16=18
subtract 18 from both sides
c^2-8c-2
use quadratic formula
((-b +/- sqrt((-b^2)-4ac)))/2a
((-(-8)+/-sqrt((-8)^2-4(1)(-2)))/2(1))
(8+/-sqrt(64-(-8)))/2
(8+/-sqrt(64+8))/2
(8+/-sqrt(72))/2
(8+/-sqrt(36 * 2))/2
(8+/-6sqrt(2))/2
4+/-3sqrt(2)
or 4+3sqrt(2) and 4-3sqrt(2)
E^2x -2e^x -8=0 => e<span>^(2x) -2e^x -8=0
Temporarily replace e^x with y.
Then (y)^2 - 2y - 8 = 0. Factors are (y-4) and (y+2).
Roots are y = 4 and y= -2.
Now remembering that we temporarily replaced e^x with y, we let
y=4 = e^x. We need to solve for x. Taking the natural log of both sides, we get:
ln 4 = x (answer)
We have to discard the other root (y= -2), because we cannot take the ln of a negative number.

Answer:
DB = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
First, note that the diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other. In other words, DB = CA and CE = EA and DE = BE.
Also, AE + CE = CA
So, using this, we can write this equation:
AE = CE
x + 4 = 3x -12
Subtract 4 from both sides.
x = 3x -16
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-2x = -16
Divide both sides by -2
x = 8
Then, substitute this into AE + CE = CA
x + 4 + 3x - 12 =
8 + 4 + 24 - 12 = 24
Then, because CA = DB,
DB = 24
