Adiya said that the first step to solving the quadratic equation x2 + 6 = 20x by completing the square was to divide 6 by 2, squ

are that value, and add the result to both sides. Is Adiya’s solution method correct? Explain.

Answer:

Adiya’s method is not correct. To form a perfect square trinomial, the constant must be isolated on one side of the equation. Also, the coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 on the variable is used to find the constant in the perfect square trinomial. Adiya should first get the 20x term on the same side of the equation as x2. Then she would divide 20 by 2, square it, and add 100 to both sides.

There were 230{,}600230,600230, comma, 600 jobs available in the field of radiology in the year 201420142014. Each year, that nu
dexar [7]

Answer:

j(t)=230600(1.009)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing at a rate of 0.9\%0.9%0, point, 9, percent means the expected number of jobs keeps its 100\%100%100, percent and adds 0.9\%0.9%0, point, 9, percent more, for a total of 100.9\%100.9%100, point, 9, percent.

So each year, the expected number of jobs is multiplied by 100.9\%100.9%100, point, 9, percent, which is the same as a factor of 1.0091.0091, point, 009.

If we start with the initial number of jobs, 230{,}600230,600230, comma, 600 jobs, and keep multiplying by 1.0091.0091, point, 009, this function gives us expected number of jobs in radiology ttt years from 201420142014:

j(t)=230600(1.009)^t

XY=4n+3,YZ=2n-7,XZ=22
Agata [3.3K]
Choose one of the equations, then try and rewrite in terms of 1 Unknown, eg I've chosen XZ= 22 and am going to write it in terms of X

XZ = 22
Z = 22/X (this is writing Z in terms of X)
So... X(22/X)= 22
22/X=22X
22 = 22X^2 (* ^2 is to the power 2)
Therefore X = 1
And Z= 22

Use this to solve the remaining equations

1xY = 4n + 3
22Y= 2n - 7
Then rearrange and do simultaneous equations

22Y - 66 = 88n
22Y + 7 = 2n
-73 = 86n
n = -73/86

It is very very likely that I have made a mistake somewhere here given the strange number I have for n but I spent far too long on this not to post it ahaha, even if the numbers are incorrect this is the general method I would follow

Luke, Kira, and Ali each served 2/3 of their own cake. Each cake was the same size, but Luke served 4 slices, Kira served 6 slic
Allisa [31]

Answer:

6; 9; 12

Step-by-step explanation:

It's possible because they cut cakes into different no. of slices

Luke: 2/3 of the cake are 4 slices

Entire cake 4/(2/3) = 4×3/2 = 6 slices

Kira: 2/3 of the cake are 6 slices

Entire cake 6/(2/3) = 6×3/2 = 9 slices

Ali: 2/3 of the cake are 8 slices

Entire cake 8/(2/3) = 8×3/2 = 12 slices
