Solve for x in the equation x squared + 2 x + 1 = 17.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

$x = - 1 + \sqrt{17}\\and\\x = - 1 - \sqrt{17}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

given equation

$x^2 +2x +1 = 17$

subtracting 17 from both sides

$x^2 +2x +1 = 17\\x^2 +2x +1 -17= 17-17\\x^2 +2x - 16 = 0\\$

the solution for quadratic equation

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ is given by

x = $x = -b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} /2a \\\\and \ \\-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} /2a$

________________________________

in our problem

a = 1

b = 2

c = -16

$x =( -2 + \sqrt{2^2 - 4*1*-16}) /2*1 \\x =( -2 + \sqrt{4 + 64}) /2\\x =( -2 + \sqrt{68} )/2\\x = ( -2 + \sqrt{4*17} )/2\\x = ( -2 + 2\sqrt{17} )/2\\x = - 1 + \sqrt{17}\\and\\\\x = - 1 - \sqrt{17}\\$

thus value of x is

$x = - 1 + \sqrt{17}\\and\\x = - 1 - \sqrt{17}\\$

Point P partitions the directed line segment from A to B into the ratio 3:4. Will P be closer to A or B? Why

Pani-rosa [81]

B because the distance between p to b is 1/4 of the line and the distance between p to a is 3/4 of the line

The larger of two numbers is 15 more than three times the smaller number. If the sum of the two numbers is 63 find the numbers

tatuchka [14]

Let x = the smaller numberLet 3x + 15 = the larger numberx + 3x + 15 = 634x = 48x = 123(12) + 15 = 51
