Height is not measured in surface area as that is a 3D look so it is still LW meaning 4 times 1.5 which is 6
Answer:
4\pm\sqrt{19}
Step-by-step explanation:
Move everything to left side
Now to solve this square equation we need to find Descriminant
As Descriminant D is greater than 0 then we have 2 solutions which we can calculate by this formula
Step-by-step explanation:
well, the starting equation and the target format have been given.
let's do the multiplications and compare the target with the starting information.
from there we see what is different or missing.
x² + 14x + 13 = 0
and
(x - p)² = q
x² - 2px + p² = q
x² - 2px + (p² - q) = 0
now let's compare the different parts :
x² = x²
-2px = 14x
-2p = 14
p = -7
p² - q = 13
-7² - q = 13
49 - q = 13
36 - q = 0
q = 36
so, the square (x - p)² = (x + 7)² is completed when
x² + 14x + 49 = 0
but we have only "+ 13". so we need to add 36 to get 49. but we need to do it on both sides, to keep the equation true :
x² + 14x + 13 + 36 = 36
x² + 14x + 49 = 36
(x + 7)² = 36
just as we calculated already above.
and now this can be solved by pulling the square root on both sides (a quadratic equation has always 2 solutions)
x + 7 = ±6
x1 = 6 - 7 = -1
x2 = -6 - 7 = -13
