Answer:

After completing the square, we can say:

(x - 2)² = 1

If we solve for x, this tells us that x has a value of both 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x² - 4x + 3 = 0

We can complete the square by adding 1 to both sides:

x² - 4x + 4 = 1

(x - 2)² = 1

We can then solve for x by saying:

(x - 2)² = 1

x - 2 = √1

x = 2 ± 1

x = 1, 3

What is the equation with a slope of 0 that has a point of (6,-11)?

lianna [129]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-11})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies 0 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-11)}=\stackrel{m}{0}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{6}) \\\\\\ y+11=0\implies y=-11$

Rocky ate 42 cups of dog food. Since there are 7 days in a week, 21 cups were eaten per week (3x7). Since the question is asking for the amount in two weeks, you multiply 21x2 to get 42.

Which choices are equivalent to the exponential expression below? check all that apply. (2/3)^3

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

B. (2/3) x (2/3) x (2/3)

C. 8/27

D. 2^3 /3^3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the following property

$\LARGE \left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^c = \frac{a^c}{b^c}$

Exponent also means you're multiplying the same number for an 'n' number of times.

For example, 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2

we multiply it by itself 3 times since 3 is the exponent.

x^y

x is the base, y is the exponent

we read it as x to the power of y

If the exponent is 2, we say it as x squared

If the exponent is 3, we say it as x cubed
