8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x = 8

Coefficient of the x term: 6

Divide it in half: 3

Square it: 3²

Add 3² to both sides of the equation to complete the square and keep the equation balanced:

x² + 6x + 3² = 8 + 3²

(x+3)² = 17

Answer:

f(5) = 3200

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive formula to generate the terms, that is

f(2) = 2 × f(1) = 2 × 200 = 400

f(3) = 2 × f(2) = 2 × 400 = 800

f(4) = 2 × f(3) = 2 × 800 = 1600

f(5) = 2 × f(4) = 2 × 1600 = 3200

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3 : x + 8 : : 2 : 3

(x + 3) \times 3 = (x + 8) \times 2 \\ 3x + 9 = 2x + 16 \\ 3x - 2x = 16 - 9 \\ x = 7 \\ x + 3 = 7 + 3 = 10 \\ x + 8 = 7 + 8 = 15 \\
