Answer:
See method below.
Step-by-step explanation:
m/n + n/3 = 2
2/m + n = 4
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying the first equation by 3n:-
3m + n^2 = 6n...........(1)
and the second equation by m:-
2 + mn = 4m..............(2)
Now we solve using substitution:-
From equation (2):-
4m - mn = 2
m = 2 / (4 - n)
Now substitute for m in equation (1):-
6/ (4 - n) + n^2 = 6n
6 + n^2(4 - n) = 6n(4 - n)
6 + 4n^2 - n^3 = 24n - 6n^2
n^3 - 10n^2 + 24n - 6 = 0
This will not factor so we could solve this using graphical software.
To find the values of the variable m we substitute the found values of n into one of the original equations and solve for m.
Answer:
x = -2 0r x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
from the question
X² – 4x – 12=0
solve by completing the square method
we have;
X² – 4x – 12=0
X² – 4x = 12
to make the left hand side a perfect square we add 4 to both sides.
X² -4x + 4 = 12 + 4
X² -4x + 4 = 16
from left hand side X² -4x + 4
= (x -2) × ( x -2)
it can be simply expressed as
( x-2)²
so since X² -4x + 4 has been simplified to be ( x-2)²
then,
( x-2)² = 16
x - 2 = √ 16
since square root has two values it can either be positive or negative
so we have
x = 2 + √16
or
x = 2 - √16
therefore
x = 2 + √16
x = 2 + 4
x = 6
0r
x = 2 - 4
x = -2
