Answer:

x = -3 + 2\sqrt2  \ , \ x = -3 - 2\sqrt2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x + 1 = 0

a = 1 , b = 6 , c = 1

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{36-4}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{32}}{2}\\\\x= \frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{16 \times 2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-6 +4\sqrt2 }{2}\\\\x = -3 + 2\sqrt2  \ , \ x = -3 - 2\sqrt2

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic:

x² + 6x + 1 = 0

Solution

Take the first two terms, and make a complete square.

If the coefficient of x² is not equal to 1, divide the equation by the coefficient to make the job easier.  It equals one in this case.

We know from

(x+a)² = x² + 2a + a²

so here a =3, or (x+3)² = x² + 6x + 9

Put that in the equation

x² + 6x + 9 -9 +1 = 0

the term -9 is to balance the +9 that we added so as not to change the equation.

Rewrite and simplify

x² + 6x + 9 = 8

(x+3)² = 2(2²)

take square-root on both sides

(x+3) = +/- 2sqrt(2)

therefore

x = -3 +/- 2sqrt(2)

or

x = 3+2sqrt(2),  3-2sqrt(2)

a caterer received an order to prepare 120 servings of salad for a banquet. Each serving will weigh 4 ounces. so far the caterer
Ugo [173]
To easier digest this question, we can multiply the 120 servings by 4 ounces to make it into a common unit of measurement. This way, we can compare ounces with ounces instead of ounces to servings.
We then have 480 servings, and the poor caterer only has 60 ounces. We can put that into a fraction, 60/480. From here, things get slightly easier. All we have to do is make it into a fraction we can digest, which would be 1/8. We can turn that fraction into a decimal by simply dividing. We have 0.125.
Since we are changing from a decimal into a percent, we have to move the decimal point two places to the right. We have out final answer of 12.5%.

Damm [24]

Answer:

3/4 times 18= 13.5

31.5-13.5=18  

It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.

It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.

18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5

If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.  

18/x=75/100

75x=18 times 100

75x=1800

75x/75=1800/75

x=24  

The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
