Answer: a) x = 5 or -1 b) x = √3+2
c) x = -1/2 or -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (x − 2)² = 9
First step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√ (x − 2)² = √9
x-2 = +-3
x = +3+2
x = 5 and;
x = -3+2
x = -1
x = 5 or -1
b) 3(x-2)² = 9
First we divide both sides by 3 to get;
(x-2)² = 9/3
(x-2)² = 3
Second step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√(x-2)² = √3
x-2 = √3
x = √3+2
c) 6 = 24(x+1)²
Dividing both sides by 24, we have
6/24 = (x+1)²
1/4 = (x+1)²
Taking the square root of both sides we have
√1/4 = √(x+1)²
= +-1/2 = x+1
x = +1/2-1 = -1/2 and;
x = -1/2-1 = -3/2
x = -1/2 or -3/2
Answer: B
Work:
-5x+10>-15 = x<3/10
a+2 a +1
= ------- / ------------------
a -5 (a - 3)(a - 5)
a+2 (a - 3)(a - 5)
= ------- * ------------------
a -5 a +1
(a+2)(a - 3)
= ----------------
a +1
a NOT equal 5 and -1
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Break the problem down into small parts:
2 to the power of 3= 8
8+7+6=
15+6=21
21/2
21 divided by 2 is 10.5
Hope this helps!
Answer:
7.94 x 10⁸miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Distance of earth from sun = 9.3 x 10⁷miles
Distance of earth from Saturn = 8.87 x 10⁸miles
Unknown:
How much further from the sun is Saturn than Earth = ?
Solution:
To find the solution to this problem, let us find the difference between their distances:
( 8.87 x 10⁸ miles - 9.3 x 10⁷ miles )
= 88.7 x 10⁷ miles - 9.3 x 10⁷ miles
= (88.7 - 9.3) x 10⁷miles
= 79.4 x 10⁷miles
= 7.94 x 10⁸miles
