im not sure i did it right but i tried 8 ^ 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)
Two numbers that work are -6 and +1
-6 x +1 = -6
-6 + -1 = -5
2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.
3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0
I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.
3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'
3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0
4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.
(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0
5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.
3x + 1 = 0 x-2 = 0
3x = -1 x = 2
x = -1/3
6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3
Answer:
Squaring both the sides, we get a quadratic and solving it, we find that the possible values of x are -7 and -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression can be written as √(x+8) - 6 = x. Take 6 on the other side and square both the sides.
[√(x + 8)]² = (x + 6)²
x + 8 = x² + 12x + 36
x² + 11x + 28 = 0
x² + 7x + 4x + 28 = 0
(x + 7)(x + 4) = 0
x = -7 and x = -4
The possible values of x are -7 and -4.

Answer 6 hours
Reason
7x + 9.50 = 55
-9.50. -9.50 subtract from both sides
_____________
7x = 45.50
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x
X = 6.5
So he can rent for 6 hours (the .5 would be charged as a full hour per the problem)
Each inch in the map is equivalent to 8 miles.
Explanation:
There is a distance of 24 miles between two parks. This 24 miles is represented by an 8-inch gap in the map.
So 8 inches on that particular map = 24 miles in real life.
To find the distance that an inch on the map represents we must divide both sides of the above equation. Since we need to calculate how much distance 1 inch represents we divide both the sides by 8 so that 8 inches on the map changes into 1 inch.
inches on the map =
miles between the two parks in real life,
1 inch on that particular map = 3 miles in real life.
So each inch on the given map is equal to 8 miles in real life.
