-8-8x^2=-31 how to solve for x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = ± \sqrt{\frac{23}{2\sqrt{2}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 - 8x^2= -31

Since this is a quadratic, it needs to be factored.

First, move the x to the other side:

-8 = 8x^2 - 31

Then, get the x alone by first adding 31:

23 = 8x^2

then dividing by 8:

x^2 = 23/8

Finally, square root both sides and remember the even roots property:

x = ± \sqrt{\frac{23}{8}}

and simplify the root 8:

x = ±  \sqrt{\frac{23}{2\sqrt{2}}}

Note: This answer may have a mistake.

There are approximately Pi times 10,000,000 seconds in one ____?
MissTica

The number of seconds in a year are 31,557,600 seconds, which gives;

There are approximately Pi times 10,000,000 seconds in one <u>year</u>.

<u />

<h3>How can the given statement be completed?</h3>

The number of seconds in one day = 86,400

The number of seconds in one week = 604,800

The number of seconds in a year = 31,557,600

Therefore;

\mathbf{\dfrac{The \ number  \ of  \ seconds  \ in \  a \  year}{10,000,000}}  = 3.1557600 \ which  \ is \ close \ to \3.14159 \approx \pi

Which gives;

The number of seconds in a year ≈ π × 10,000,000

The completed statement is therefore;

  • There are approximately Pi times 10,000,000 seconds in one <u>year</u>

aliina [53]

Answer:

It means the Judy's rate to complete the puzzle is \frac{1}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Judy completes a puzzle by herself, it takes her 3 hours.

Working with Sal, it only takes them 2 hours

We have been given the rates of time taken by Judy and Sal to complete a puzzle.

We can see from our given table that Sal's rate is r. We are told that Judy completes a puzzle by herself, it takes her 3 hours. working with Sal, it only takes them 2 hours.

It is given that Judy completes a puzzle by herself, it takes her 3 hours.

so part of puzzle completed by Judy in one hour would be\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, the part of puzzle completed by Judy in one hour is \frac{1}{3}.
