Solve 5x/3 + 2/5 = 1 x = 9/25 x= 25/9 x= 3/25 x = 9/27

Answer:

$x=\frac{9}{25}$

x = 0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

5x/3 + 2/5 = 1

5x/3 + 2/5 - 2/5 = 1 - 2/5

$\frac{5x}{3} = 0.6$

5x/3 × 3 = 0.6 × 3

5x = 1.8

5x ÷ 5 = 1.8 ÷ 5

$x=\frac{9}{25}$

x = 0.36

The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). If the coordinates of A are (-4,-5), what are the coordinates of B?

Elenna [48]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). The coordinates of B are (-6, 7)

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, the midpoint of AB is M(-5,1).

The coordinates of A are (-4,-5),

We need to find the coordinates of B.

We know that, mid-point formula for two points A $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and B $(x_{1}, y_{2})$ is given by

$M\left(x_{3}, y_{3}\right)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Here, in our problem, $\mathrm{x}_{3}=-5, \mathrm{y}_{3}=1, \mathrm{x}_{1}=-4 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{1}=-5$

Now, on substituting values in midpoint formula, we get

$(-5,1)=\left(\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

On comparing, with the formula,

$\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}=-5 \text { and } \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}=1$

$-4+\mathrm{x}_{2}=-10 \text { and }-5+\mathrm{y}_{2}=2$

$\mathrm{x}_{2}=-6 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{2}=7$

Hence, the coordinates of b are (-6, 7).

What number must you add to complete the square? x^2+26x=33

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Must add: 202

Step-by-step explanation:

$The \ formula \ for \ perfect \ square => (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$

a = x

2ab = 26x

2ab = 26a [ substitute a instead of x]

$b = \frac{26a}{2a}$

b= 13

So,

$(x + 13)^2 = x^2 + 26x + 169$

But given equation is :

$x^2 + 26x = 33\ => \ x^2 + 26x -33 = 0$

We have find the difference between 169 and -33 to get the number that should be added to get the perfect square.

That is , 169 - (-33) = 202

Therefore ,

$x^2 + 26x -33 + 202 \ makes \ given \ equation \ a \ perfect \ square$
