Answer:
The values of a and b are 1 and -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question by comparing the two sides.
∵ x² + 2x - 7 = (x + a)² + b
→ Let us solve the bracket on the right side
∵ (x + a)² = (x)(x) + 2(x)(a) + (a)(a)
∴ (x + a)² = x² + 2ax + a²
→ Substitute it in the right side above
∴ x² + 2x - 7 = x² + 2ax + a² + b
→ Compare the like terms on both sides (terms of x², terms of x
and numerical terms)
∵ The terms of x are 2x and 2ax
→ Equate them
∵ 2x = 2ax
→ Divide both sides by 2x
∴ =
∴ 1 = a
∴ The value of a = 1
∵ The numerical terms are -7 and a² + b
→ Equate them
∵ -7 = a² + b
→ Substitute a by 1
∴ -7 = (1)² + b
∴ -7 = 1 + b
→ Subtract 1 from both sides
∵ -7 - 1 = 1 - 1 + b
∴ -8 = b
∴ The value of b = -8
∴ The values of a and b are 1 and -8
Answer:
wait do u have a word bank or anything like words to go with it or numbers ????
Solution:
1. Scale factor 24/6 = 4 →→→ Correct
2. Side A: Scale factor × Length of side
4 x 2 = 8 Units →→Correct
3. Side B: Scale factor × Length of side
Side B= 4 x 4 = 16 Units→→Correct
4. Perimeter= 24 + 16 + 8 + 8 - 56 →→→Incorrect
Actual Perimeter= 16 + 16 + 8+8=48 units
Option : 3→→→Basil made a mistake in finding the perimeter. is true regarding basil work.
Answer:
A = 6
B = 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
16/8 = 2 so just multiply by 2 for 3, and divide by 2 for 11
The x is 2 :) I hope it’s right! I’m pretty sure it is though !
