Answer:
End result is ln(-x) + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1, ln x + 2
2. ln(x + 2) + 2
3. ln(x + 2 - 2) + 2 = ln x + 2
4. ln x + 1
5. ln(-x) + 1
For x²+bx+c, to complete the square, you add (half of b)²
b=8 in this case, so you add 4², which is 16
x²+8x+16-16-4
y=(x+4)²-20 is the final form.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 4x
b = x + 2
c = 3x + 4
Solution
(4x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (3x + 4)^3 Remove all the brackets.
16x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Collect like terms on the left
17x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Subtract the terms on the right
8x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
This factors into
(4x - 12)(2x + 1)
There are 2 answers
4x - 12 = 0
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
or
2x + 1 = 0
2x = - 1
x = - 1/2
You have to look at x = -1/2 carefully. The problem is that 4x = 4*(-1/2) = - 2 which is not possible in Euclidean Geometry.
So the only answer is x = 3
Answer: 5/6
Step-by-step explanation: trust me on this
The value of three in 6,300 is 3,000 because it is in the thousands place. The three in 530 is in the hundreds place making the value of three 300. Hope that this helps you :D
