24/1.33333333333=18
Answer:
x = 2 + √3 and
x = 2 - √3
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0.
Here you have multiple choices of methods of solution:
quadratic formula, completing the square, graphing, and so on.
If we complete the square, then: x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 becomes
x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 + 1 = 0, or
(x - 2)^2 = 3
Taking the square root of both sides, we get x - 2 = ±√3, so that the roots are:
x = 2 + √3 and
x = 2 - √3
You are correct. The answer is choice C.
The other choices A, B, D have each side add up to 180 degrees either because the angles are a linear pair (adjacent and supplementary) or because the angles are same side interior angles. Same side interior angles are supplementary if a transversal line cuts through a pair of parallel lines as so happens in this diagram.
