Given the equation: x^2+6x+8=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tanya [424]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Use the completing the square method

which is

(x+ (b/2))^2 - (b/2)^2 + c

x^2+6x+8 = 0

a = 1 b = 6 c = 8

b/2 = 3

(x+3)^2 - 9 + 8 = 0

becomes

(x+3)^2 -1 = 0

which becomes

(x+3)^2 = 1

ADDITIONAL:

i don’t know why they said (x-h) since there are no negatives in this

let me explain

(x-h) ^2 is the same as (x-h)(x-h) which leaves us with

x^2 - 2xh + h

but the equation we start with is

x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0

look at the signs

the middle term’s one is different

1. From the statement select the related given statement.
solong [7]

1. Line l; point P not on l.( Take a line I and mark point P outside it or on the line.So from point P there are infinite number of lines out of which only one line is parallel to line I. Suppose you are taking point P on line I, from that point P also infinite number of lines can be drawn but only one line will be coincident or parallel to line I.

2. Plane R is parallel to plane S; Plane T cuts planes R and S.(Imagine you are sitting inside a room ,consider two walls opposite to each other as two planes R and S and floor on which you are sitting as third plane T ,so R and S are parallel and plane T is cutting them so in this case their lines of intersect .But this is not possible in each and every case, suppose R and S planes are parallel to each other and Plane T cuts them like two faces of a building and third plane T is stairs or suppose it is in slanting position i.e not parallel to R and S so in this case also lines of intersection  will be parallel.

3. △ABC with midpoints M and N.( As you know if we take a triangle ABC ,the mid points of sides AB and AC being M and N, so the line joining the mid point of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third side and is half of it.

4.Point B is between points A and C.( Take a line segment AC. Mark any point B anywhere on the line segment AC. Three possibilities arises

(i) AB > BC (ii) AB < BC  (iii) AB = BC

Since A, B,C are collinear .So in each case  AB + BC =AC

How many 1/8s are there in 3/4​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

there are 6/8 in 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

if you want to change the denominator of the fraction, you must find the multiple of it,

(3/4) x 2 is 6/8

so you have 6 x (1/8) thats the same 6/8

3/4 is the minimum simplification, if you want to find the same fraction but with other denominator, you have to multiply 3/4 for any number, to do this you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator

Determine the singular points of the given differential equation. Classify each singular point as regular or irregular. (Enter y
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The differential equation; (x^2-4)^2y'' + (x + 2)y' + 7y = 0

The above equation can be better expressed as:

y'' + \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x^2-4)^2} \ y'+ \dfrac{7}{(x^2- 4)^2} \ y=0

The pattern of the normalized differential equation can be represented as:

y'' + p(x)y' + q(x) y = 0

This implies that:

p(x) = \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x^2-4)^2} \

p(x) = \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x+2)^2 (x-2)^2} \

p(x) = \dfrac{1}{(x+2)(x-2)^2}

Also;

q(x) = \dfrac{7}{(x^2-4)^2}

q(x) = \dfrac{7}{(x+2)^2(x-2)^2}

From p(x) and q(x); we will realize that the zeroes of (x+2)(x-2)² = ±2

When x = - 2

\lim \limits_{x \to-2} (x+ 2) p(x) =  \lim \limits_{x \to2} (x+ 2) \dfrac{1}{(x+2)(x-2)^2}

\implies  \lim \limits_{x \to2}  \dfrac{1}{(x-2)^2}

\implies \dfrac{1}{16}

\lim \limits_{x \to-2} (x+ 2)^2 q(x) =  \lim \limits_{x \to2} (x+ 2)^2 \dfrac{7}{(x+2)^2(x-2)^2}

\implies  \lim \limits_{x \to2}  \dfrac{7}{(x-2)^2}

\implies \dfrac{7}{16}

Hence, one (1) of them is non-analytical at x = 2.

Thus, x = 2 is an irregular singular point.
