Mathematics

Answer:

The answer is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

15% * 60

"OF" mean multiplication so we multiple

¹⁵/100 * 60

we cancel "Zero cancel Zero"

we left with

¹⁵/10 * 6

but we can make the fraction to be uniform

so we say ¹⁵/10 * ⁶/1

we multiply

15 * 6=90

10 * 1=10

⁹⁰/10

we divide

10 into 90 is 9

10 into is 1

so we say ⁹/1 is the same as 9.

Hence our answer is 9

Complete each statement in the steps to solve x2 – 6x – 7 = 0 using the process of completing the square. Isolate the constant b
Tomtit [17]
"Isolate the constant by adding 7 to both sides of the equation."
This step separates the non-squareable 7 and the squareable x^2 - 6x .

"Add 9 to both sides of x^2 - 6x = 7 to form a perfect square trinomial while keeping the equation balanced."
After separating the non-squareable, add the number which makes the first or left side a perfect square trinomial. The formula to find the number is: c =  {\frac{b}{2}  }^{2} .
When we plug the values: c =  { \frac{ - 6}{2} }^{2}
Simplify: c =  {( - 3)}^{2}  = 9

"Write the trinomial x^2 - 6x + 9 as (x - 3) squared."
When you factor x^2 - 6x + 9 , you will get (x - 3) \times (x - 3) .

"Use the square root property of equality to get x - 3 = ±  \sqrt{16} ."
The 16 is coming from the part when we add 9. We needed 9 on the left side for a perfect square, but to protect the balance of the equality, we need to add 9 to the right side too. When we add 7 and 9, we got 16, and that is where it came from.

"Isolate the variable x to get solutions of -1 and 7."
To isolate x we branched the plus-minus sign:
x - 3 = 4 \: \:  \:  x = 4 + 3 = 7 \\  \\ x - 3 =  - 4 \:  \:  \: x =  - 4 + 3 =  - 1

The area of a right triangle is 16 square miles. One leg of the triangle is 4 miles longer than the other leg. Find the length o
xxMikexx [17]
First, define the area of a triangle: A = 1/2bh. Let A = 16, and since it’s a right triangle, the base and the height can easily be translated to its two legs. Let one leg = x, and the other = x + 4. So this would give you the equation: 16 = .5(x)(x+4). Distribute so 16 = .5x^2 + 2x. You might want to get rid of the decimal/fraction, so multiply everything by 2 and this would give you 32 = x^2 + 4x. Recognizing that this will be a quadratic equation let x = 0 and bring everything unto one side, so 0 = x^2 + 4x - 32. Factor. 0 = (x+8)(x-4). Since a leg cannot be negative, x can only equal 4. This means that one leg is 4 and the other is 8.
