What number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square?
x² – 6x= 5

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x =  8.7 or x = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

x² – 6x= 5

(b/2)² = (6/2)² = 9 (Using Completing the square method)

x² – 6x + 9 = 5 + 9

(x -5)² = 14

x-5 = √14

x-5 = ±3.7

Either x-5 =3.7 or x-5 = -3.7

x = 3.7+5 or x = -3.7+5

x =  8.7 or x = 1.3

put the numbers in order...
78.4 , 87, 89, 95, 96, 99

Q1 (lower quartile) = 87
Q2 (median) = (89 + 95) / 2 = 184/2 = 92
Q3 (upper quartile) = 96
The lower quartile is 87.

Answers

Answer:

Both

Step-by-step explanation:

First,let's resolve the expression into factors

x^3-x^2-6x

x(x^2-x-6)

x(x^2-3x+2x-6)

x(x(x-3)+2(x-3))

x(×+2)(x-3)

Therefore,both of them are the factors of the expression

HELP PLZA biker’s speed is 1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed. They start moving simultaneously in the same direction from the same point and, after 1.5 hours, the distance between them is 12.5 miles. What are their speeds?

Answers

The speed of the walker and the biker will be 16.67 miles per hour and 25 miles per hour.

What is speed?

Speed is the distance that a particle or body travels in one hour. It has a scalar value. It is the time-to-distance ratio.

We know that the speed formula

Speed = Distance/Time

A biker’s speed is 1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed.

Let y be the speed of the biker and x be the speed of the walker. Then the equation is given as,

y = 1.5x

They begin going simultaneously from the same location in the same direction, and after 1.5 hours, there are 12.5 miles separating them.

y - x = 12.5 / 1.5

1.5x - x = 25/3

0.5x = 25/3

x = 16.67 miles per hour

Then the speed of the biker will be given as,

y = 1.5 (16.67)

y = 25 miles per hour

The speed of the walker and the biker will be 16.67 miles per hour and 25 miles per hour.

More about the speed link is given below.

Answer: Speed of walker and biker will be 16.67 miles per hour and 25 miles per hour respectively.

Step-by-Step explanation:

Leave the speed of a walker alone x

Let the speed of a biker be 1.5x

They are moving a similar way,

thus, their Relative speed will be

1.5x - x =0.5x

Time taken = 1.5 hours

Separation between them = 12.5 miles

As we probably am aware the equation for "Distance":

*Picture attached*

Consequently, the Speed of the walker be 16.67 miles every hour

Speed of biker be

1.5 times 16.67=25 miles per houe
