Mathematics

Lyrx [107]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² - 72x = 0 ← factor out 4 from each term

4(x² - 18x) = 0

To complete the square

add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 18x

4(x² + 2(- 9)x + 81 - 81) = 0

4(x - 9)² - 4(81) = 0

4(x - 9)² - 324 = 0 ( add 324 to both sides )

4(x - 9)² = 324 ( divide both sides by 4 )

(x - 9)² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 9 = ± \sqrt{81} = ± 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

x = 9 ± 9

Then

x = 9 - 9 = 0

x = 9 + 9 = 18

If 1 square food of grass seed = 25cents ,then how much would grass seed cost for 55,000 square feet of grass seed
vagabundo [1.1K]
Okay. So 25 cents is expressed as 0.25. it is $0.25 for a square foot of grass seed. To find the cost for 55,000 square feet of grass seed, all you have to do is multiply the cost per square foot by the amount of square feet total. In this case, we would multiply 55,000 by 0.25. 55,000 * 0.25 is 13,750. There. The total cost would be $13,750.

What is the logarithmic formula 10000= 625/8*2^t ?
Elodia [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

     log(128) = t·log(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take logarithms the way the formula is, or you can simplify it first.

<u>As is</u>

  log(10000) = log(625) -log(8) +t·log(2)

__

<u>Simplified</u>

  8·10000/625 = 2^t . . . . . multiply by 8/625

  128 = 2^t

  log(128) = t·log(2)

_____

Solution:

  t = log(128)/log(2) = 7
