Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2+13x=15 by method of completing the square<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 1, -7.5

Explanation:

2x² + 13x = 15

Divide the left side of the equation by 2

2(x² + 6.5x) = 15

Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient

6.5/2 = 3.25

3.25² = 10.5625

Add 10.5625 to the left side

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15

Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.

10.5625 • 2 = 21.125

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125

To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x

b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25

2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125

Divide by 2

(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625

Square root.

(x + 3.25) = √18.0625

x + 3.25 = ±4.25

Subtract 3.25.

x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1

x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5

x = 1, -7.5

From a scientific viewpoint, why do many desert dwellers elect to wear white or light-colored garments
alexandr1967 [171]
Darker colors absorb sunlight more, so it will become hotter. Lighter colored clothes will better reflect sun so they will be less hot.

How many total electrons can be contained in the 4d sublevel? <br> 2<br> 6<br> 10<br> 14
qaws [65]
<span>The s sublevel has just one orbital, so can contain 2 electrons max. The p sublevel has 3 orbitals, so can contain 6 electrons max. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals, so can contain 10 electrons max. And the 4 sublevel has 7 orbitals, so can contain 14 electrons max.
So, having this in mind, 10 electrons in total can be contained in the 4d sublevel.

A cubic piece of platinum metal (specific heat capacity = 0.1256 J/°C・g) at 200.0°C is dropped into 1.00 L of deuterium oxide ('
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a=5.65cm

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for this heat transfer process in which the heat lost by the hot platinum is gained by the cold deuterium oxide based on the equation:

Q_{Pt}=-Q_{Deu}

We can represent the heats in terms of mass, heat capacities and temperatures:

m_{Pt}Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})=-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})

Thus, we solve for the mass of platinum:

m_{Pt}=\frac{-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})}{Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})} \\\\m_{Pt}=\frac{-1.00L*1110g/L*4.211J/(g\°C)*(41.9-25.5)\°C}{0.1256J/(g\°C)*(41.9-200.0)\°C} \\\\m_{Pt}=3860.4g

Next, by using the density of platinum we compute the volume:

V_{Pt}=\frac{3860.4g}{21.45g/cm^3}\\ \\V_{Pt}=180cm^3

Which computed in terms of the edge length is:

V=a^3

Therefore, the edge length turns out:

a=\sqrt[3]{180cm^3}\\ \\a=5.65cm

Best regards.
