We need to solve for x by completing the square of the given mathematical expression (x+7)(x-9) = 25.
First, we need to perform multiplication of (x+7) and (x-9) such as the expression become:
(x+7) (x-9) = 25
x² -9x +7x -63 = 25
x² - 2x = 25 + 63
Then perform addition of constant values 25 and 63
x² - 2x =88
Add +1 in both sides to complete the expression such as:
x² - 2x +1 = 88 +1
(x-1)(x-1) = 89
(x-1)² = 89
We see that (x-1) is a perfect square, we can now solve for the value of x such as:
(x-1) = +-√89
x1 = +√89 + 1
x1 = 10.4
x2 = -√89 +1
x2 = -8.4
The answers are 10.4 and -8.4.
Answer:
they would be $42.00
Step-by-step explanation:
50 + 2.50= 52.50
52.50-10.50=42.00
$21.80 because you will do 20% over 100% = x over $26. Than you will do 26 times 20 divided by 100, and you get 5.2, than you will do 26-5.2 and you get $21.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the ratio of length:width is..
15:10 for b
and
30:15 for c.
Now we will divide..
3:2 for b
and
2:1 for c.
Those are NOT the same things!
