Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic equation has one root if the discriminant is 0.
That is we need
for this particular question.
Compare the following to find
:


The variable
is representative of the variable
here.



Plug in into
:


Subtract 4 on both sides:

Divide both sides by 16:

Reduce:

Answer: X=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using PEMDAS;
Step 1: Distribute the "3" in the part of the equation "3(x-2)"
3x - 6
Step 2: Consider the equation as a whole with the newly part of the equation from step 1, as it is a part of the equation
Therefore, re-written as,
3x - 6 + 48 = -3x
Step 3: Evaluate the re-written equation
Using basic mathematics skills, we can evaluate the following,
3x - 6 + 48 = -3x ➡ -6 + 48 = -6x ➡ 42 = -6x ➡ -7 = x
As shown, the answer is x=-7.
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
4/9 (4 out of 9) because you add them all together then count the number of blue marbles then since you put back the first marble, the dominator is still the same
Answer:
4 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 5 = 20
4 + 5 = 9
