6 0

Answer:

x1 = -4, x2 = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

1.- equal the equation to 0

x^2 + 20x + 100 - 36 = 0

x^2 + 20x + 64

2.- factor to simplify.

(x + 4)(x + 16) = 0

3.- equal each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x + 4 = 0,   x = -4

x + 16 = 0,   x = -16

If 5+ 20 -22-3х - 10.2-2x+5, what is the value of х?
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<h2>3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

5+20\cdot2^{2-3x}=10\cdot2^{-2x}+5\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\\\20\cdot2^{2-3x}=10\cdot2^{-2x}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 10}\\\\2\cdot2^{2-3x}=2^{-2x}\qquad\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\2^{1+2-3x}=2^{-2x}\\\\2^{3-3x}=2^{-2x}\iff3-3x=-2x\qquad\text{subteact 3 from both sides}\\\\-3x=-2x-3\qquad\tex\qquad\text{add}\ 2x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\-x=-3\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\x=3

Solve for x. 18 ÷ x = -2 x =
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally 18/2 is 9, but since we’re dividing by a negative, the 9 becomes negative.

So 18/-2 is -9.

A computer that originally cost $850 is on sale for 15% Off. What is sale price of the computer? Help Please &lt;3 Thanks!
zaharov [31]
Percent means per 100
think cent as in 100 pennies in a dollar

To convert from percent to decimal, we divide by 100 or move the decimal over 2 spots, so,
15% = 15/100 = 0.15

Now multiply 0.15 by 850 to find the discount saved
0.15*850 = 127.50
So you'll save $127.50

The final price is therefore: 850-127.50 = 722.50

A shortcut is to multiply 850 by 0.85 
850*0.85 = 722.50
We get the same answer
The 0.85 comes from the fact that if you get 15% off, then you pay 85% of the original price

Answer: $722.50
