Answer: k=21
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Distribute the 9 to the k and the -4 in the parentheses.
9 · k = 9k and 9 · -4 = -36
You now have 9k - 36 - 7k. You can combine the like terms of 9k and -7k and get 2k, giving you 2k - 36.
2. For the other side of the equation, you also distribute -2 to the k and -8 in the parantheses.
-2 · k = -2k and -2 · -8 = 16
You now have 32 - 2k + 16. Combine the like terms 32 and 16 (32 + 16) and you get 48. This gives you the equation 48 - 2k.
3. Now you should have the equation 2k - 36 = 48 - 2k.
You want the k on one side of the equation so you need to cancel out one of them. I cancelled out -2k by adding 2k to it. You also need to add this 2k to your 2k on the other side of the equation.
Ex: 2k - 36 = 48 - 2k
+2k +2k
4. Now you should have 4k - 36 = 48. You need to get 4k by itself so cancel out -36 from both sides by adding 36 to -36 and adding 36 to 48.
You should now have 4k = 84 (48 + 36 = 84).
Divide both sides by 4 to get k by itself. 4 divided by 4 makes k and 84 divided by 4 equals 21. This makes k = 21, which is your answer.
Answer:
1.-
2.-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
X, x + 2, x + 4 cause if you add 1 it becomes even so add 2 everytime to keep it odd
Vertex form of a parabola
<span>y = a (x - h)^2 + k </span>
<span>where (h, k) is the vertex </span>
Substituting the values of h and k.
we get,
<span>y = a(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>substituting in the point (0, -30) for x and y
</span><span>-30 = a (0 + 4)^2 + 2
</span>solve for a,
<span>-30 = 16 a + 2 </span>
<span>-32 = 16 a </span>
<span>-2 = a </span>
<span>y = -2(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>Put y = 0 </span>
<span>-2 x^2 - 16 x - 30 = 0 </span>
<span>-2(x^2 + 8 x + 15) = 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 8 x + 15 = 0 </span>
<span>(x + 3)(x + 5) = 0 </span>
<span>x = -3
x = -5</span>
