Determine all values of k that make each of the following a perfect square trinomial. X^2+8x+k

Mathematics

-Dominant- [34]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

k can either be

12

or

−

12

.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation

0=x2+4x+4

. We can solve this by factoring as a perfect square trinomial, so

0=(x+2)2→x=−2 and−2

. Hence, there will be two identical solutions.

The discriminant of the quadratic equation (b2−4ac) can be used to determine the number and the type of solutions. Since a quadratic equations roots are in fact its x intercepts, and a perfect square trinomial will have

2 equal, or 1

distinct solution, the vertex lies on the x axis. We can set the discriminant to 0 and solve:

k2−(4×1×36)=0

k2−144=0

(k+12)(k−12)=0

k=±12

What are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation 9x2 = 4?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

9x^2=4

We need to find the solution of given quadratic equation.

Divide both sides by 9.

\frac{9x^2}{9}=\frac{4}{9}

x^2=\frac{4}{9}

Taking square root on both sides.

x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{4}{9}}

x=\pm\frac{2}{3}

The solution of given equation are x=\frac{2}{3} and x=-\frac{2}{3}.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Hey, I need help BAD!! I am doing PEMDAS. 7+(5times6)45+9<br><br><br> Please help me!! Thanks!
leonid [27]

Answer:1

<h2>1,366</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

P - parenthsis

E - exponents

M - multiplication

D - division

A - addition

S - subtraction

<h3>STICK TO THE ORDER:</h3>

7 + 5 x (6 x 45) + 9 = 1,336 ( Not the pemdas order)

But,

<h3>7 + (5 x 6)45 + 9 = 1,366  is the correct order for using PEMDAS.</h3>
