Y = x² + 7x - 4
y = -x - 4
x² + 7x - 4 = -x - 4
+ x + x
x² + 8x - 4 = -4
+ 4 + 4
x² + 8x = 0
x(x) + x(8) = 0
x(x + 8) = 0
x = 0 or x + 8 = 0
- 8 - 8
x = -8
y = -x - 4
y = -0 - 4
y = 0 - 4
y = -4
(x, y) = (0, -4)
or
y = -x - 4
y = -(-8) - 4
y = 8 - 4
y = 4
(x, y) = (-8, 4)
The solutions are (0, -4) and (8, -4).
I don’t know how to solve those type of problems sorry
We have 4 deliveries ( 12 1/3 , 8 3/4, 17 2/8 and 23 2/3 miles ) and also the final delivery : 10 5/10 miles = 10 1/2 miles.
We have to add up all the deliveries and to divide the result by 5:
( 12 1/3 + 8 3/4 + 17 1/4 + 23 2/3 + 10 1/2 ) : 5 =
= 72 1/2 : 5 = 72.5 : 5 = 14.5 = 14 1/2
Answer: The average distance for all segments of this trip is 14 1/2 miles.
Answer:
(x + 1)² = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
-2x = x² - 6
We'll start by rearranging it to solve for zero:
x² + 2x - 6 = 0
The first term is already a perfect square so that's fine. Normally, if that term had a non-square coefficient, you would need to multiply all terms a value that would change that constant to a perfect square.
Because it's already square (1), we can simply move to the next step, separating the -6 into a value that can be doubled to give us the 2, the coefficient of the second term. That value will of course be 1, giving us:
x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 6 = 0
Now can group our perfect square on the left and our constants on the right:
x² + 2x + 1 - 7= 0
x² + 2x + 1 = 7
(x + 1)² = 7
To check our answer, we can solve for x:
x + 1 = ± √7
x = -1 ± √7
x ≈ 1.65, -3.65
Let's try one of those in the original equation:
-2x = x² - 6
-2(1.65) = 1.65² - 6
- 3.3 = 2.72 - 6
-3.3 = -3.28
Good. Given our rounding that difference of 2/100 is acceptable, so the answer is correct.
Answer:
5.1 and 5.05
Not really much to explain. Still, hope this helped!
P.S. (5.2 is more than 5.03, btw)
