Answer:
x = -3+√5, -3-√5 (exact roots)
or x = -0.76, -5.24 to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x = - 4
Completing the square:
(x + 3)^2 - 9 = -4
(x + 3)^2 = 5
x + 3 = +/-√5
x = - 3 + √5, - 3 - √5
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(2x-3)
-3x(-6)
-3x-6=18 because the negatives cancel each other out.
Ratios are proportional if they represent the same relationship. One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional. To see this process in action, check out this tutorial!
