Hello!

x² - 4x + 6 = 9 <=>

<=> x² - 4x + 6 - 9 = 0 <=>

<=> x² - 4x - 3 = 0 <=>

<=> x = -(-4)±√(-4)²-4×1×(-3)/2×1 <=>

<=> x = 4±√16+12/2 <=>

<=> x = 4±√28/2 <=>

<=> x = 4±2√7/2 =>

=> x = 4+2√7/2 and x = 4-2√7/2 =>

=> x = 2+√7 and x = 2-√7

The equation has two solutions.

Good luck! :)

Answer:  x= 2 + \sqrt{7}\\ or \\  x= 2 - \sqrt{7}

how i got it?

x^2 - 4x + 6 = 9

*subtract 9 on both sides*

x^2 - 4x + 6 - 9 = 0  ( which turns to) x^2 - 4x - 3=0

a=1 or x, b=-4, c=-3

Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=-4, c=-3.

x= - (-4) + or - \sqrt{-4}x^{2} -4(1)(-3) / 2(1)

which turns to: x= 4 + or - √28 divided by 2

the final answer should be x= 2 + \sqrt{7}\\ or \\  x= 2 - \sqrt{7}

What is the area of the shaded region <br> 1cm is in the middle
Archy [21]

Answer:

Area of the shaded region= 128.86\,cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shaded region=Area of the rectangle-Area of the circle

Area of rectangle= Length\times Width

Length=11\,cm\\Width=12\,cm

Area is:

           =11\times 12\\\\=132\,cm^2

Area of the circle = \pi \times r^2

r=1\,cm

As,        \pi =\dfrac{22}{7} =3.14

Area of the Circle is :

           =3.14\times 1 \times 1\\\\=3.14\times 1\\\\=3.14\,cm^2

Area of the Shaded region:

Area of the shaded region=132-3.14\\\\=128.86\,cm^2
