Solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest hundredth x^2 + 2x = 15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3, x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is represented in the form a^2 + 2ab + b^2. We are already given the a^2 term, x^2, and the 2ab term, 2x. From this we can say:

a^2 = x^2

a = x

Now, we can substitute x for a in the other expression to create the equation:

2ab = 2x

2(x)b=2x

b = 1

From this, b^2 is one, so, to get our trinomial all on one side, we add 1 to both sides:

x^2 + 2x = 15

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 16

Now, we can factor. The perfect square trinomial factors into (a + b)^2. In this case, a is x, and b is one. We can factor and get:

(x + 1)^2 = 16

Now, we take the square root of both sides:

x + 1 = ± 4

We can separate this into two equations and solve:

x + 1 = 4

x = 3

x + 1 = -4

x = -5

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 2x = 15

x^2 + 2x + [1/2(2)]^2 = 15 +  [1/2(2)]^2

(x + 1/2(2) )^2 = 15 + [(1/2)(2)]^2

(x + 1)^2 = 15 + 1^2

(x + 1)^2 = 15 + 1

(x+1)^2 = 16                       Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt( (x + 1)^2 ) = sqrt(16)

x + 1 = +/- 4

x + 1 = 4

x = 4 - 1 = 3

x + 1 = -4

x = -4 - 1

x = - 5

So the roots are 3 and - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel's account savings are doubled every month. Hence, they will eventually surpass the savings of Anita, even though Anita's account has more money atm.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though Anita had more money at first compared to Miguel, Miguel savings will double each month while Anita will get only $200 each month. As a result, Miguel's account will grow faster compared to Anita's.

At : a.m. the angle of elevation of the sun for one city is . If the height of a monument is approximately , what is the length of the shadow it will cast at that time? Round to the nearest foot.

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

At 11:30 a.m. the angle of elevation of the sun for one city is 55.7°. If the height of a monument is approximately 555 ft, what is the length of the shadow it will cast at that time? Round to the nearest foot.

Answer:

the length of the shadow will be 379 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question and as represented in the diagram below;

height of monument = 555 ft

angle of elevation = 55.7°

From the image below, this makes a right angled triangle

we know that the some of the interior angles of a triangle is 180

so

∠ABC + ∠BCA + ∠CAB = 180°

90° + 55.7° + ∠CAB  = 180°

∠CAB = 180° - 145.7°

∠CAB = 34.3°

Now, using sine rule;

BC / sinA = AB / sinC

so we substitute

BC / sin( 34.3°) = 555 / sin( 55.7° )

BC / 0.563526 = 555 / 0.826098

we cross multiply

BC × 0.826098 = 0.563526 × 555

BC × 0.826098 = 312.75693

BC = 312.75693 / 0.826098

BC = 378.595 ≈ 379 ft

Therefore, the length of the shadow will be 379 ft

A student measured the lead content of a paint sample 4 times. The standard deviation of the measurements was found to be 0.76% of the average. Calculate the confidence interval at the 90% confidence level.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]CI =0.894%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size [tex]n=4[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=0.76\% of \=x[/tex]

Confidence level [tex]\mu =90\%=0.90[/tex]

B) g(x)=3-x2
C) g(x)=2-x2
D) g(x)=(2-x)2

Answers

Answer:  choice C)  g(x) = 2-x^2

============================================================

Explanation:

The y intercept of the blue curve f(x) is (0,5)

The y intercept of the red curve g(x) is (0,2)

We see that the y intercept has been shifted down 3 units when going from f(x) to g(x). Overall, the entire f(x) curve has been shifted down 3 units to get the g(x) curve.

Based on that, we would say

g(x) = f(x) - 3

g(x) = (5-x^2) - 3

g(x) = -x^2 + (5 - 3)

g(x) = -x^2 + 2

g(x) = 2 - x^2 ..... answer is choice C

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct answer bro...

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

So first off, two numbers that are to the same root can be combined.

In this case we can combine these two values, since they are to the 5th root and are both 7:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7*7^4}[/tex]

=

[tex]\sqrt[5]{49^4}[/tex]

This can be broken down into 7^2

This gets us [tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

Remember that we add exponents, together, so in this case it adds up to 5.

You might be wondering...well if its 7^2 and 7^4, wouldnt it be 7^6?

Well, remember this. One of the 7s in 7^2 is from the 7^4, so tecnically it is 7^3 + 7^2, which is 7^5

Anyway, now we have:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

When you root a exponent, it works like subtraction.

In this case we have a exponent of 5, and a root of 5.

This is 5-5 = 0

So it will just be 7. Because the square and root cancel each other out, leaving us with 7.

Hope this helps!
