First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now
2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4
At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real.
Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result.
For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196
No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.
So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to
x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
Answer: Number 1= 2
Number 2= 55
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 16 divided by 4 is 4, 4-2=2
2. 22 divided by 2 is 11, 15 divided by 3 is 5, 11x5=55
Answer:
<em>20 sq yd</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total amount of sq yd's of paint needed, you have to find the area.
The area of a triangle is: A = 1/2 bh
We know:
b = base = 8
h = height = 5
Plug in and solve:
A = 1/2 (8) (5)
A = 1/2 (40)
A = 20
