2(x1/2 -7)=-6 solve for x

1 answer:

3 0

First divide by 2, then you have
1/2x-7=-3
Then add 7 to both sides
1/2x=4
Then then divide by 1/2(which is the same as multiplying by 2)
And
x=8

What's the answer to d+4(d+6)=-1

Blizzard [7]

Well first you would have to do the distributive property... d+4d+ 24=-1. Then you would have to combine like terms. -----> 5d+24=-1------> 24- (-1) =25... now divide 5 from 5 and 25. So d=5... I'm pretty sure this is right...

The answer=>

For this,we need to know what's Middle splitting method

In order to factorize x² + bx + c we have to find numbers p and q such that p + q = b and pq = c. After finding p and q, we split the middle term in the quadratic as px + qx and get desired factors by grouping the terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

$9x {}^{2} - 24x + 16 \\ = > 9x {}^{2} - 12x - 12x + 16 \\ = > 3x(3x - 4) - 4(3x - 4) \\ = > (3x - 4)(3x - 4) \\ so... \\ x = eitherway \: 4$
