Answer:
x ≈ - 6.74, 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )
x² + 6x = 5
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 5 + 9
(x + 3)² = 14 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 
Then
x = - 3 -
≈ - 6.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
x = - 3 +
≈ 0.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
2 examples would be
7 3/20
or
7 9/60.
Step-by-step explanation:
0.15 = 15/100
= 3/20.
So 7.15
= 7 3/20
Answer:
5n-10 < 6n-8
n - is the variable that's stands for the unspecified number
step 1. ten is less than 5 times a number
step 2. LESS THAN SIGN :)
step 3. six times the number decreased by 8
......................
oh and if you're looking to simplify that problem I believe it would be worked out like this....5n-10<6n-8....subtract 5 from both sides....-10
