What is the solution to the equation below? √ x-5 = x-11

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x= 14

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt( x-5) = x-11

Square each side

(sqrt( x-5))^2 = (x-11)^2

x-5 = x^2 - 22x +121

Subtract (x-5) from each side

x-5-x+5 = x^2 -22x +121 -x+5

0 = x^2 -23x +126

Factor

0 = ( x-14) ( x-9)

Using the zero product property

x-14 = 0   x-9=0

x=14 x=9

Check the solutions

sqrt( x-5) = x-11

sqrt( 14-5) = 14-11

sqrt(9) = 3

3=3

solution

sqrt( x-5) = x-11

sqrt(9-5) = 9-11

sqrt(4) =-2

2 = -2

not a solution

Travis will complete a 60-mile trip in _____ hours?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:  2.5 hours is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

It took Travis 2.5 hours to complete 3/4 of his trip. To find the average speed, we need to find his speed during 3/4 of the trip and then the 52.5 miles. 

So you know that 52.5 is 1/4 of his total trip. That means if we multiply that by 3, that's how many miles he traveled in 2.5hrs. (157.5)

To calculate speed, divide distance by time. 

For 3/4 of his trip (157.5), it took him 2.5 hours. 

157.5/2.5 = 63mph

For the remaining 52.5 miles, it took him an hour.

52.5/1 = 52.5mph

Now average those two speeds to get the average speed for the whole trip.

(63+52.5)/2= 57.6mph

Suppose you invested $1500 in an ac count that paid an annual of 3% compound monthly. How much would you have after 1 year?
Sati [7]

Answer:

1545.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of compound interests uses this formula:

<h2>A = P (1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{n*t}</h2>

Where  A = total amount, P = principal or amount of money deposited, r = annual interest rate, n = number of times compounded per year  and t = time in years.

So, if we plug-in the numbers of the problem we have:

<h2>A = 1500 (1 + \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12*1}</h2>

Which gives us:

A = 1500 * 1.0025^{12} = 1500 * 1.030416 = 1545.62

For a grand total of 1,545.62 including capital and interests.

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (6,3) that is perpendicular to the line 4x−5y=−10.
Paul [167]

Step-by-step explanation:

( y = 4x/5 + 2)

m1.m2 = -1

4/5.m2 = -1

m2 = -5/4

formula = y - y1 = m2 ( x - x1)

y - 3 = -5/4 ( x - 6)

y -3 = -5x /4 + 30/4

y = -5x /4 + 21/2

Is y=7x+2 x+7y=8 parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
Murljashka [212]
Rearrange them to slope-intercept form

y = 7x + 2

y = -(1/7) x + 8

product of their slopes is  7 * -1/7  = -1  so they are perpendicular
