Answer:
x is equal to 2.5 and -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x + 1)² - 3 = -51
-4(x² + 2x + 1) - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x -3 - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x - 6 = -51
-4x² - 8x = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x) = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x + 1) = -49
-4(x + 1)² = -49
(x + 1)² = 49/4
x + 1 = ± √(49/4)
x + 1 = ± 7/2
x = -1 ± 3.5
x = 2.5, -4.5
Does it tell you what X represents?
412-217
195 units
Just subtract them and that would be the distance I’m pretty sure
To determine the amount of water in the first 8 beakers, you will subtract the 19 ml that are in the 9th beaker from the total to see how much water was actually put into the first 8 beakers.
91 ml - 19 ml = 72 ml.
The 72 ml are divided evenly between 8 beakers.
72/8 = 9 ml
There would be 9 ml of water in each of the first 8 beakers.
