Answer:
x = 1, -7.5
Explanation:
2x² + 13x = 15
Divide the left side of the equation by 2
2(x² + 6.5x) = 15
Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient
6.5/2 = 3.25
3.25² = 10.5625
Add 10.5625 to the left side
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15
Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.
10.5625 • 2 = 21.125
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125
To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x
b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25
2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125
Divide by 2
(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625
Square root.
(x + 3.25) = √18.0625
x + 3.25 = ±4.25
Subtract 3.25.
x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1
x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5
x = 1, -7.5
Answer:
Because both CaCl2 and CaBr2 both contain elements (Chlorine and Bromine) from the same group (group 7)
Explanation:
Elements are placed into different groups in the periodic table. Elements in the same group are those that have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell and as a result will behave similar chemically i.e. will react with other elements in the same manner.
Chlorine and Bromine are two elements belonging to group 7 of the periodic table. They are called HALOGENS and they have seven valence electrons in their outermost shell. Hence, when they form a compound with Calcium, a group two element, these compounds (CaCl2 and CaBr2) will possess similar properties because they have elements that are from the same group (halogen group).
The cell membrane acts as a semi-permeable barrier in plants. In other words, is in charge or control of what comes in and out of the cell.
