Complete the square to factor X^2 +10X=-8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: x=√(17)-5 and x = -√(17)-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The given equation is :

x^(2) +10x = -8

Adding 8 in both sides, it will become

x^(2) +10x + 8 = -8 +8

x^(2) +10x + 8 = 0

To make it perfect square, we need to add 25 and subtract 25

x^(2) +10x + 8 +25-25= 0

x^2+10x+25+8-25=0

(x+5)^2+8-25=0

(x+5)^2-17=0

Adding 17 in both sides  

(x+5)^2=17  

taking square root

x+5=√(17)

So,

x=√(17)-5 and x = -√(17)-5  .. Answer

Hope it will help :)

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X² + 10x = -8

add to both side the square of half the coefficient of X which is 5²

X² + 10x + (10/2)² = -8 + (10/2)²

X² + 5² = -8 + 5²

( X + 5 )² = -8 + 25

(X + 5)² = 17

X + 5 = +- √17

Therefore, X = -5 +- √17.

X = -5 + √17 , -5 - √17.

A contractor is building a set of stairs out of concrete. Each step is exactly the same length and width is the same and height from the last step. A) Which solid figures can the staircase be broken into?
B) What are the dimensions of each solid figure?
C) How much concrete will be needed to form the staircase?

Answers

QA) Which solid figures can the staircase be broken into?

A) The staircase can be broken into 3 rectangular prisms.

QB) What are the dimensions of each solid figure?

A) We are given the height (2.5 ft) and the length (3 ft) of the entire staircase. To find the height and length of each step, just divide by 3:

2.5 / 3 = 5/6 ft high

3 / 3 = 1 ft long

Looking at the image given, we can see that the staircase is 6 ft wide.

Bottom prism: 3 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

Middle prism: 2 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

Top prism: 1 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

QC) How much concrete will be needed to form the staircase?

A) To answer this question, we have to find the volume of each rectangular prism. The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is

V = lwh; where l = length, w = width, and h = height.

We need to apply this formula to each prism. I'll go from the bottom up.

(1.) V = lwh; l = 3, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (3)(6)(5/6)

V = 15 ft²

(2.) V = lwh; l = 2, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (2)(6)(5/6)

V = 10 ft²

(3.) V = lwh; l = 1, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (1)(6)(5/6)

V = 5 ft²

To find the amount of concrete needed to form the staircase, just add the volumes of the three rectangular prisms:

15 + 10 + 5 = 30 ft²

The contractor will need enough concrete to cover 30 ft² to form the staircase.

Hope this helps!

What is the slope of the graph of 2x – 6y = 9? A.1/3


B.-1/3


C.3


D.-3

Answers

Let's make our equation in the form of y = mx + b

 2x – 6y = 9

Add 6y on both sides

2x = 6y + 9

Subtract 9 on both sides

6y = 2x - 9

Divide 6 on both sides

y = 1/3 - 3/2

Now, we have it in the form of y = mx + b

In y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

That means in y = 1/3 - 3/2, the slope is A) 1/3.

Your answer is A) 1/3
2x – 6y = 9
Slope is coefficient near x in y=kx+l
2x – 9 = 6y
1/3 x – 3/2 = y
k = 1/3

first distribute the 8 into (2x+2y) then distribute -4 into (3xy-(5x)). Next you do it order of operations which is “PEMDAS” (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction)

What is the mean median and mode of the data set 35,44,77,68,43,55,28

Answers

Mean:

50

Median:

44

Mode:

35, 44, 77, 68, 43, 55, 2

Answer:

There's no mode. The median is 44. The mean is 50.

Step-by-step explanation: Mean is 35+44+77+68+43+55+28=350/7=50 You divide by 7 because there are 7 numbers. Median is the middle number. There are no repeated numbers so there's no mode.
