Answer:
C. (x-2)^2=7
Step-by-step explanation:
What you have to do first is to get rid of the 3 in the x^2 so you will divide 3 by the whole thing to get x^2-4x=3.
You will then divide -4 by 2 and then square the answer to get 4.
You will then add the 4 into the end of the equation and to the 3 to get x^2-4x+4=7.
You will then make into a perfect square (x-2)^2=7 and that is your answer.
Answer:
2y² + 9
---------------
15y³
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by identifying the LCD, and then change each fraction so that its denominator is the LCD.
Here the LCD is 15y³, which is evenly divisible by 15y and 5y³.
Focus now on the first fraction: 2 / (15y). Multiplying numerator and denominator of this fraction by y² results in
y²·2 2y²
--------- → ----------
y²·15y 15y³ ←This is the correct LCD
Multiplying numerator and denominator of the second fraction by 3 results in:
3·3 9
------------ → ---------
3·5y³ 15y³ ←This is the correct LCD
So now those two original terms look like:
2y² 9
--------- + --------
15y³ 15y³
and this can be written in simpler form as:
2y² + 9
---------------
15y³
X² - 8x - 20 factors to give option
B) (x - 10)(x + 2)
x² + 8x - 20 factors to give option
A) (x - 2)(x + 10)
x² - x - 20 factors to give option C) (x - 5)(x + 4)
and x² - 9x - 20 is option D) Prime.
I hope this helps!
The value of x in the congruent triangles abc and dec is 1
<h3>How to determine the value x?</h3>
The question implies that the triangles abc and dec are congruent triangles.
The congruent sides are:
ab = de
bc = ce = 4
ac = cd = 5
The congruent side ab = de implies that:
4x - 1 = x + 2
Collect like terms
4x - x = 2 + 1
Evaluate the like terms
3x = 3
Divide through by 3
x = 1
Hence, the value of x is 1
