Answer:
150.31
Step-by-step explanation:
First, use Order of Operation to multiply.
16.55(8) + 5.97(3)
= 132.4 + 17.91
= 150.31
A.3n+4+3n+4+4n
=3n+3n+4n+4+4
=10n+8
B.11n+4+n-12
=11n+n+4-12
=12n-8
C.6(6n-2)
=36n-12
D.4(3n-2)
=12n-8
E.4n+22-12+8n
=4n+8n+22-12
=12n+10
so,B and D are the expressions that are equivalent to 12n-8.
To solve the equation using complete square method we proceed:
z^2-19z=66
but
c=(-b/2a)^2
c=(-19/2)^2
c=361/4
thus:
z^2-19z+361/4=66+361/4
factoring the LHS we get:
1/4(2z-19)^2=625/4
(2z-19)^2=625
getting the square root of both sides we get:
2z-19=+/-25
2z=+/-25+19
2z=44 or -6
z=22 or -3
Answer: z=22 or z=-3
