X^2+12=40 what number must you add to complete the square?

Mathematics
1 answer:
posledela3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If you really meant X^2+12=40, then this simplifies to x^2 = 28, and therefore x = ±√28, or x = ±2√7.

2) If you meant X^2+12x=40:

a) Take half of the coefficient of x:  that would be (1/2)(12), or 6.  

b) Square this result, obtaining:  6² = 36

c) Add this 36 to x^2 + 12x + 40, and then subtract it:  We get:  

x² + 12x + 36 - 36 = 40, or x² + 12x + 36 = 76

We have to add 36, as indicated above, to "complete the square."

Answer:

H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1≠p2, which is a two-tailed test.

Step-by-step explanation:

We formulate our hypotheses as

H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1≠p2, which is a two-tailed test.

Supposing the probability or proportion of the first survey is equal to the probability or proportion of the second survey. This will be the null hypothesis and the alternative hypotheses would be that these two proportions or probabilities are unequal.

This is a two tailed test.

Lucas used the number sentence 8 x 2 = 16 to solve a problem. Which problem could he have solved? ​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Word problem 3        

Step-by-step explanation:

Word Problem one is a subtraction problem since Felicia is giving away two marbles to Lucas. Word Problem two is a division problem since Felicia is evenly dividing the number of marbles she has into two bags. Word Problem three is a multiplication problem because Ryan has two times as many marbles that Felicia does. Word Problem four is an addition problem because she found two more marbles while she already has eight marbles. Keywords for subtraction word problems are: fewer than, decrease, take away, less than, minus, difference, change, lost reduced, and subtract. Keywords for division word problems are: As much, cut up, groups, equally, sharing, half, how many in each, parts, per percent, quotient, ratio, and separated. Keywords for multiplication word problems are: double, every, factor, increased, multiplied product, times, and tripled.

HELPPP PLSSS 18. A triangle has verticesA(4,3), B(6,9) and C(2, -3). The triangle is rotated 90°
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

  F and H are NOT true

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotation 90° CCW is represented by the transformation ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

Then the rotated coordinates are ...

  A(4, 3) ⇒ A'(-3, 4) . . . . . quadrant II

  B(6, 9) ⇒ B'(-9, 6) . . . . . quadrant II

  C(2, -3) ⇒ C'(3, 2) . . . . . quadrant I

The rotated figure will be congruent to the original, because rotation is a rigid transformation.

__

Consider the answer choices:

  F: (-3, -4) is A' --- NOT true

  G: triangles are congruent --- true

  H: B is in quadrant III --- NOT true

  J: (3, 2) is the coordinates of C' --- true

Both choices F and H are NOT true.

Simplify by combining like terms: 15x +2 - 7 - 5x​
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

10x-5

You subtract 15x-5=10x. Then you do -7+2. The 7 is negative . So it would be -7 plus two. So it would equal -5. So it's 10x-5

one rectangle has a length 10 cm and width 5 cm the second rectangle has length 12 cm and width 4 cm are the two rectangles simi
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

No, they aren't similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Let's take the proportionality of their sides to check whether they are similar or not:</em></u>

\frac{10}{5} = \frac{12}{4}

=> 2 ≠ 3

So, they are not similar.
