Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients/Degrees
  • Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = 0
  • Multiple Roots
  • Factoring
  • Completing the Square: -b/(2a)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

x² - 8x + 15 = 0

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 15 on both sides:                     x² - 8x = -15
  2. Complete the Square [Addition Property of Equality]:                                 x² - 8x + 16 = -15 + 16
  3. [Complete the Square] Simplify:                                                                   (x - 4)² = 1
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                  x - 4 = ±1
  5. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 4 on both sides:                                   x = 4 ± 1
  6. Evaluate:                                                                                                          x = 3, 5

HELP ME PLSSSSSSSSSSS
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Option H, 120 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Total rectangle area:

width x length

10 units x 24 units = 240 units

Area of 1 shaded traingle:

A = (height) x (width) / 2

A = (12 units) x (10 units) / 2

A = 120 units / 2

A = 60

Now mutiple A by 2 since we have two shaded regions

60 x 2 = 120

Subtract the entire rectangle area with the shaded area to get the unshdaed area

240 units - 120 units = 120 units

HELP I WILL MAEK BEAINLIST PLEASE
wolverine [178]

Answer:

260,548668 or 260.55 round to the nearest hundreds  

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the trapezoid:

[(major base + minor base)x height]/2

[(22 + 12) x 12]/2 = 204 cm^2

radius = diameter / 2 = 12 / 2 = 6 cm

Area of a semicircle

(radius^2 x pi)/2 = (6^2 x pi)/2 = 56.548668 cm^2

total area = 204 + 56,548668 = 260,548668 cm^2
