Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 2x = −2?

Mathematics

Kisachek [45]3 years ago

Answer:

0.586 or -3.414

Step-by-step explanation:

X² + 2X = -2

we make the equation 0

  • X² + 2X + 2 = 0  

The quickest way to solve a quadratic equation , is to use the almighty formular

which is

  • -b±√(b²- 4ac)/2a

where the coefficient of the first term starting from the Left Hand Side (LHS) is outlined as such

aX² + bX - C = 0

using our question,

X² + 2X + 2 = 0

a = 1 (coefficient of X² = 1)

b = 2 (coefficient of X = 2)

c = 2.

  • let's impute these values into our equation

x= -(2)±√(2² - 4(1×2))/2(1) =

x =-2±√(4-8)/2=

x = -2±√-4/2 = -2±√-2

i.e the root of our equation could be

x =-2+√2 or x = -2-√2

√2 = 1.414

∴ x = -2 + 1.414 = 0.586 or

  x = -2 - 1.414 = -3.414

A recipe for brownies calls for 1/8 cup of sugar and the recipe makes 12 brownies what fraction of a cup is in each brownie? THA
denis23 [38]

Answer: \frac{1}{96}

Step-by-step explanation:

(\frac{1}{8})/12

Divide the fraction \frac{1}{8} by 12. This is because we need to split the sugar between 12 brownies, and to split something means to divide it. Use the switch, flip and multiply method.

I inserted an image on how to use this method.

Anyway, to use this method, we need 2 fractions, so instead of 12, we have to use \frac{12}{1}.

\frac{1}{8}/\frac{12}{1}

= \frac{1}{8} × \frac{1}{12}      Multiply the denominators and numerators

= \frac{1}{96}

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

(3 * 100,000) + (0 * 10,000) + (4 * 1000) + (0 * 100) + (5 * 10) + (6 * 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to represent the value of this number using expanded notation

Mathematically, that will be;

(3 * 100,000) + (0 * 10,000) + (4 * 1000) + (0 * 100) + (5 * 10) + (6 * 1)

= 300,000 + 0 + 4000 + 0 + 50 + 6

= 304,057

The length of a rectangular wall is 16.5 feet. The height of the wall is 8.625 feet. Cameron determines the area of the wall to
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Cameron’s solution is unreasonable because 17 times 9 is 153, and 153 is not close to his product.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle:

The area of a rectangle, of length l and height h, is given by:

A = lh

The length of a rectangular wall is 16.5 feet. The height of the wall is 8.625 feet.

This means that l = 16.5, h = 8.625

Estimate of the area:

To use an "easy" multiplication, lets consider l = 17, h = 9. So

A = lh = 17(9) = 153

Cameron determines the area of the wall to be 1423.125 square feet.

Very far from the area of 153, which means that he made a confusion with the decimal places. Thus, the correct answer is:

Cameron’s solution is unreasonable because 17 times 9 is 153, and 153 is not close to his product.

What is the area of each piece of paper that Jodi is cutting out
Reptile [31]
The simplest (and most commonly used) area calculations are for squares and rectangles. To find the areaof a rectangle multiply its height by its width. For a square you only need to find the length of one of the sides (as each side is the same length) and then multiply this by itself tofind the area.

Which rate is the lowest price? <br> $6.30 for 9 <br> $5.50 for 5 <br> $4.20 for 7 <br> $0.80 each
Sedbober [7]
Answer: $4.20 for 7
This problem can be solved by dividing the pay by the number of items.

$6.30 / 9 = $0.70
$5.50 / 5 = $1.10
$4.20 / 7 = $0.60
$0.80 / 1 = $0.80

This shows that for the third option, $4.20 for 7, the rate per item is the lowest.
