Mathematics
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Unknown number = x

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

\frac {x}{2} - 10 = 6

Lowest common denominator (LCD) = 2

We multiply all through by 2;

2* \frac {x}{2} - 2*10 = 2*6

x - 20 = 12

x = 12 + 20

x = 32

Therefore, the unknown number is 32.

Solve x2 + 12x + 6 = 0 using the completing-the-square method.
exis [7]
X^2+12x+6=0  subtract 6 from both sides...

x^2+12x=-6  halve linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides...

x^2+12x+36=30  now the left side is a perfect square...

(x+6)^2=30  take square root of both sides...

x+6=30^(1/2)  subtract 6 from both sides...

x=-6-30^(1/2) and -6+30^(1/2)
