Simplifying
b2 + -4b + -14 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0

Solving
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '14' to each side of the equation.
-14 + -4b + 14 + b2 = 0 + 14

Reorder the terms:
-14 + 14 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0
0 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14
-4b + b2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: 0 + 14 = 14
-4b + b2 = 14

The b term is -4b. Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4b + 4 + b2 = 14 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4b + b2 = 14 + 4

Combine like terms: 14 + 4 = 18
4 + -4b + b2 = 18

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + -2)(b + -2) = 18

Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.242640687

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting
(b + -2) equal to 4.242640687 and -4.242640687. b + -2 = 4.242640687

Simplifying
b + -2 = 4.242640687

Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = 4.242640687

Solving
-2 + b = 4.242640687

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = 4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = 4.242640687 + 2
b = 4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: 4.242640687 + 2 = 6.242640687
b = 6.242640687
Simplifying
B = 6.242640687

Subproblem 2
b + -2 = -4.242640687

Simplifying
b + -2 = -4.242640687

Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = -4.242640687

Solving
-2 + b = -4.242640687

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = -4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = -4.242640687 + 2
b = -4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -4.242640687 + 2 = -2.242640687
b = -2.242640687

Simplifying
b = -2.242640687

Mr. Sanchez is grading papers. Yesterday he graded 3 papers in 10 minutes. Today, he graded 2 papers in 8 minutes. What was the

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The difference is 3 papers per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you make turn the 10 minutes to 60 minutes by multiplied by 6 and the same to three and you would get 18 paper per hour. Next, you simplify the 8 minute rate to 1 paper in 4 minutes then multiply the 4 by 15 = 60 minutes then the same to the 1 equal to 15 paper per hour. Finally, you subtract 18 - 15 = 3 paper.

How do I solve the square root of 30?

Gre4nikov [31]

There is a way to work it out with a pencil and paper, but that's too complicated
to try and explain with only text, like we have here.

I don't usually recommend this for things that can be done easily on paper ...
but for square roots, your best bet is to use a calculator.

The square root of 30 does not come out even. It starts out 5.477225...
and it keeps going and never ends.

The negative of 5.477225... is also a square root of 30. Every number has
two square roots ... the positive and negative of the same number.
