Answer:
x ≈ - 6.74, 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )
x² + 6x = 5
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 5 + 9
(x + 3)² = 14 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ±
Then
x = - 3 - ≈ - 6.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
x = - 3 + ≈ 0.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so I will explain the first one.
2 to the power of 4 = 2x2x2x2
2 to the power of 6 = 2x2x2x2x2x2
2 to the power of 4 = 2x2x2x2
2^4 = 16
2^6 = 64
When you are multiplying powers you add.
+
When you subtract you takeaway.
-
So you would do
4+6+4
= 14
Meaning 2 to the power of 14
2
So what is 2 to the power of 14.
You would do
2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2
The answer is 16384
