What is the solution of radical x+12 equal x

Mathematics

Vlad [161]2 years ago

Answer:

x = 4 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{x+12} = x

To get rid of the square root, we need to square both sides.

x + 12 = x²

Get all variables/ integer on to one side.

0 = x² - x - 12

Use any method to solve this quadratic equation. I'm going to use the completing the square method.

12 = x² - x

12 + 0.25 = x² - x + 0.25

\sqrt{12.25} = \sqrt{(x - 0.5)^2}

±3.5 = x - 0.5

x = 0.5 ± 3.5

x = 4 or -3

Sqrt(x+12)=x
*square root both sides
x+12=x^2
*subtract over x and 12
x^2-x-12=0
*factor using diamond method
(x-4)(x+3)=0
x=4,-3

The perimeter of this triangle is 25 units. An angle bisector divides one side of the triangle into lengths of 2 and 3. Find the
grin007 [14]

Answer:

   8 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides on one side of the angle bisector are proportional to those on the other side. In the attached figure, that means

  AC/AB = CD/BD = 2/3

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

  25 = AB + BC + AC

  25 = AB + 5 + (2/3)AB . . . . . . substituting AC = 2/3·AB. BC = 2+3 = 5.

  20 = 5/3·AB

  12 = AB

  AC = 2/3·12 = 8

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The sum of ratio units is 2+3 = 5, so each one must stand for 25/5 = 5 units of length.

That is, the total of lengths on one side of the angle bisector (AC+CD) is 2·5 = 10 units, and the total of lengths on the other side (AB+BD) is 3·5 = 15 units. Since 2 of the 10 units are in the segment being divided (CD), the other 8 must be in that side of the triangle (AC).

Likewise, 3 of the 15 units are in the segment being divided (BD), so the other 12 units are in that side of the triangle (AB).

The remaining sides of the triangle are AB=12 and AC=8.
