How do I solve this equation by completing the square. X^2 - 12x = -20

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I got x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify the quadratic equation into its standard form

More Icon

Ax^2 +Bxc=0

Simplify the equation by subtracting everything to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation and combining like terms.

x^2-12x+0=-20

x^2-12x+0+20=0

x^2-12x+20=0

The Quadratic formula provides the solution for Ax^2 +Bxc=0, in which A, B, and C are numbers (or coefficients), as follows:

The coefficients of our equation, x^2-12x+20=0, are:

A = 1

B = -12

C = 20

Simplify 64 by finding its prime factors.

We first calculate the expressions inside the parentheses from left to right and from inner to outer.

x=12-8/2

x=4/2

x=2

PLSSSS SOMEONE HELP MEEE IM STUCK the question is below

Answers

Answer:

x=8, y=73/3

Step-by-step explanation:

they ask to solve by substitution so from second equation find y

4x-3y= -41 isolate y

4x+41 = 3y divide both sides by 3

(4x+41)/3= y substitute this y in the first equation

5x+2y = -34

5x+2(4x+41)/3 = -34 distribute and find the common denominator

3*5x+(8x+82)/3 = -34

15x+8x+82=-34*3 cross multiply

23x = -102-82

x=-184/23=8

y=(4*8+41)/3=73/3 is about 24.333..

equation with variables on both sides: decimals & fractions 4x + 8 = 7.2 + 5x

Answers

Answer:

4x + 8 = 7.2 + 5x

1. 4x - 4x + 8 = 7.2 + 5x - 4x

2. 8 = 7.2 + x

3. 8 - 7.2 = 7.2 - 7.2 + x

4. 0.8 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Final Answer: [tex]x = 0.8[/tex]

Steps/Reasons/Explanation:

Question: Equation with variables on both sides: decimals & fractions [tex]4x + 8 = 7.2 + 5x[/tex].

Step 1: Subtract [tex]4x[/tex] from both sides.

[tex]8 = 7.2 + 5x - 4x[/tex]

Step 2: Simplify [tex]7.2 + 5x - 4x[/tex] to [tex]7.2 + x[/tex].

[tex]8 = 7.2 + x[/tex]

Step 3: Subtract [tex]7.2[/tex] from both sides.

The population of Salisa is 12,500 and increases by 300 each month. The population of Corsair is 13,200 and increases by 200 each month. How many months will it take until the population of the two cities is the same?

Answers

It will take seven months for the population of each city to be the same.

On month seven, Salisa's population will be 14,600. (300x7=2,100+12,500=14600)

On month seven, Corsair's population will be 14,600 as well. (200x7=1,400+13,200=14600)

Jonathan is building a fence for his chickens. The length of a rectangle is
equal to triple the width. The perimeter(P=2L+2W) is 72 centimeters. What
is the width of the fence?

Answers

Answer:

Width = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(P=2L+2W) = 72

L = 3W<- length is triple the width

(P = 2(3W) + 2W) = 72

P = 8W =72

W = 9

A certain manufacturing plant produces electric fuses of which 20% are defective. Find the probability that in a sample of 8 fuses selected at random there will be atleast one defective and not more than one defective.

Answers

Answer:

0.419

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we shall make use of Bernoulli approximation of Binomial distribution

if 20% are defective, then 80% are not defective

Probability of selecting a defective fuse is 20/100 = 0.2

Probability of selecting a non defective one is 0.8

Probability of at least 1 being defective is = 1 - Probability of none being defective

Mathematically that will be;

0.8^8 = 0.168

The above is probability of none defective

So the probability of at least one will be

1 - 0.168 = 0.832

Probability of not more than 1 means;

Probability of none + probability of 1 being defective

We already have probability of none above

Probability of 1 being defective means 8 will be non defective

The probability in this case is;

8 C 1 0.2^1 0.8^7

= 8 * 0.2 * 0.8^7 = 0.336

Add this to the probability of none = 0.336 + 0.168 = 0.504

So the probability that we want to calculate from the question will be;

Probability of at least one defective * probability of not more than one defective

= 0.832 * 0.504 = 0.419

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

x/12 is the same as 1/12x

so now the equation is 1/12x+1=6

then to simplify it even more we do -1 from both sides so

1/12x+1=6

         -1  -1

again the equation is 1/12x=5

then we multiply both sides by 12 and get x = 60

In baseball, it is 90 feet from home to first base. Knowing this, what would the distance from
home plate to third base be? How did you determine your answer?

Answers

Answer:

270 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

90 multiplied by three is 270. And a baseball field is square (obvi.) which means from one base to the next would still be 90.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

well 270 if you run all around. but 90 if going straight from home to third.

Step-by-step explanation:

the lines all around are congruent determined by the dashes in the middle so each line is 90 feet, so multiplied by three, you get 270 if running all around.

Here,

H = Hypotenuse of triangleB = Base of triangle P = Perpendicular of triangle

In given triangle,

Now, by Pythagoras' theorem,

[tex]\star\:{\boxed{\sf{\pink {H^{2} = B^{2} + P^{2}}}}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies P^{2} = \sqrt{2025}[/tex]

Bill is making accessories for the soccer team. He uses 777.35 inches of fabric on headbands for 32 players and 3 coaches. He also uses 301.76 inches of fabric on wristbands for just the players. How much fabric was used on a headband and wristband for each player?

Answers

Answer:

Fabric used on a headband for each player = 22.21 inches

Fabric used on a wristband for each player = 9.43 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let fabric used on each headband = [tex]h[/tex] inches

Let fabric used on each wristband = [tex]w[/tex] inches

Number of players for which headband is made = 32

Fabric used on 32 players = 32[tex]h[/tex] inches

Number of coaches for which headband is made = 3

Fabric used on 3 coaches = 3[tex]h[/tex] inches

As per question statement:

Total fabric used on headbands = 777.35 inches

[tex]32h + 3h = 777.35\\\Rightarrow 35h = 777.35 inches \\\Rightarrow h = 22.21\ inches[/tex]

Number of players for which wristband is made = 32

As per question statement:

Fabric used on wristbands = 301.76 inches

[tex]32w = 301.76\\\Rightarrow w = 9.43\ inches[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is:

Fabric used on a headband for each player = 22.21 inches

Fabric used on a wristband for each player = 9.43 inches
