Solve x for (x-2)²-6x=1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Roman55 [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x ≈ 9.69, 0.31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(x - 2)² - 6x = 1

We'll expand the squared binomial on the left:

x² - 4x + 4 - 6x = 1

Group like terms:

x² - 10x + 4 = 1

Complete the square by adding 21 to both sides:

x² - 10x + 25 = 22

(x - 5)² = 22

And solve for x:

x - 5 = √22

x = 5 ± √22

x ≈ 9.69, 0.31

Try to find x & y. I need it so much please
kumpel [21]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using theorem of similar triangles, we have,

(6 + x)/6 = (7 + 3.5)/7

(6 + x)/6 = 10.5/7

Cross multiply

7(6 + x) = 10.5(6)

42 + 7x = 63

7x = 63 - 42

7x = 21

x = 21/7

x = 3

Thus:

7.5/y = (7 + 3.5)/7

7.5/y = 10.5/7

Cross multiply

7.5*7 = 10.5*y

52.5 = 10.5*y

Divide both sides by 10.5

52.5/10.5 = y

y = 5
