Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.x ^ 2 + 16x + 59 = 0First, choose the appropriate form and fill in the bla
nikitadnepr [17]

Given:

There are given the quadratic equation:

x^2+16x+59=0

Explanation:

To find the value of x by using completing the square, first, we need to subtract 59 on both sides of the given equation:

So,

From the given equation:

\begin{gathered} x^2+16x+59=0 \\ x^2+16x+59-59=0-59 \\ x^2+16x=-59 \end{gathered}

Now,

Take half of the x term and square it:

So,

From the x term,

\lbrack16\cdot\frac{1}{2}\rbrack^2=64

Then,

Add 64 on both sides of the above equation.

So,

\begin{gathered} x^2+16x=-59 \\ x^2+16x+64=-59+64 \\ x^2+16x+64=5 \\ (x+8)^2=5 \end{gathered}

Hence, an option first is correct:

(x+8)^2=5

Now,

From the above square:

\begin{gathered} (x+8)^2=5 \\ x+8=\pm\sqrt[]{5} \end{gathered}

Then,

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation;;

So,

\begin{gathered} x+8=\pm\sqrt[]{5} \\ x+8-8=\pm\sqrt[]{5}-8 \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{5}-8 \\ x=\sqrt[]{5}-8,\pm\sqrt[]{5}-8 \\ x=-5.7639,-10.236067 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Hence, the value of x is shown below:

x=(-5.76,-10.24)

Please help 10 points
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The value of x is -2 and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When solve an expression, you have to make the expression equals to 0 by moving all the terms to one side :

x² - 3x - 1 = -3x + 3

x² - 3x - 1 + 3x - 3 = 0

x² - 4 = 0

Next, you have to factorize and solve it :

x² - 4 = 0

x² + 2x - 2x - 4 = 0

x(x + 2) - 2(x + 2) = 0

(x + 2)(x - 2) = 0

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

What does 3/4 x 24 = ?
IrinaK [193]

Well, 1/4 of 24 gets us 6 (since 24 = 6 x 4), so <em>3/4 </em>should get us 6 × 3 = 18.

Novay_Z [31]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ t
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 t: time
 Substituting values we have:
 y = 100000 * (1.10) ^ 4
 y = 146410
 Answer:
 
the value of his house at the start of 2018 is:
