Answer:

This problem of equations involving surds can be solved by :

Firstly,square both sides of the equation to do away with the surd

(√x+3)²=(x-3)²

Next,we do away with the surd or let me put it as sign of square root and FOIL out the RHS

x+3=x²-6x+9

Rearranging leads to:

x²-6x-x+9-3=0

x²-7x+6=0 which factorises to:

(x-6)(x-1)=0

Finding the zeros leads to

x=6 or 1

We now conduct a test to see which value(s) of x satisfy the equation

√6+3=6-3

√9=3

3=3, so x=6 is true

Now for 1,

√1+3=1-3

√4 is not equal to -2

Therefore we conclude that x=6

mart [117]

Answer:

A. 8/7

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Step 1     </h3>

4/7 - (-4/7) --> 4/7 + 4/7

The two minutes turn into a plus, removing the bracket.

<h3>Step 2</h3>

4/7 + 4/7 = 8/7

Add the two fractions together.

If there are a total of 25 questions, and I scored 56% on my test, how many answers did I get right, and how many answers did I
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

14 correct and 11 wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

If you got a 56% , we need to change this to decimal form 56% = .56

This is the percent you got right

.56* 25 = 14

You got 14 questions right

To determine the number of questions you got wrong, take the total number of questions minus the number you got right.

25-14 =11

You got 11 wrong

40. Mike has two electric train sets: A and B. Each train is on its own circular track.
JulsSmile [24]
"He starts both trains at the same time. Train A returns to its starting point every 12 seconds and Train B returns to its starting point every 9 seconds". Basically, what you need to do is find the least common multiple. The least common multiple of 12 and 9 is 36, so the least amount of time, in seconds, that both trains will arrive at the starting points at the same time is 36 seconds.
