Answer:
x = 1 ±
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² - 4x = 10 ( divide through by 2 )
x² - 2x = 5
Using the method of completing the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 = 5 + 1
(x - 1)² = 6 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 1 = ± ( add 1 to both sides )
x = 1 ± ← exact solutions
Answer:
a) 1.8
b) 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Conversion and calculation of areas
The area of a rectangle is A=wh, where w is the width and h is the height. There are 3 feet in one yard
a)
We are told Kalie put 6 stickers, each one of 1/2 centimeters (0.5 cm) wide by 3/5 (0.6 cm) centimeter long. The area of one sticker is
A=(0.5)(0.6)=0.3
Assuming there is no overlapping, the 6 stickers have a total area
6*0.3 =1.8
b)
Each of Elana's wrapping papers measures 2/5 yards long and 1/4 yard wide. Converting them to feet we have
long=2/5*3=1.2 feet
wide=1/4*3=0.75 feet
Area of each paper=1.2 feet*0.75 feet=0.9
Area of the entire board, assuming no overlapping and no space left uncovered=4*0.9
Area of board=3.6
