Solve the quadratic equation x2 - 12x + 23 =0 by completing the square.
A) x = 13 6
B) x = 13 - 6
C) x = -6 13
D) x= 6 13

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Completing the square is always confusing, but if you keep in mind it's just a way to write  (A + B )^2  so that the problem is in some easier form it makes a bit better sense.  A perfect square has some helpful properties.. anyway..

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 12x +23 = 0   ( not a perfect square , tough to work with )

take 1/2 of the second term  coefficient  12/2 = 6   and square it

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 12x + ([tex]-6)^{2}[/tex] +23 = [tex](-6)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] -12x + [tex]6^{2}[/tex] +23 = [tex]6^{2}[/tex]

now there is a perfect square :)

(x - 6)^2 =36-23

(x - 6)^2 = 13

take the square root of both side now

x -6 = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]

x = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] +6

sooo  what is supposed to happen in these problems  is that square root of 13 is supposed to work out to something that is easy to find the root of ... maybe in your answers you left out the square roots?   so maybe A is right  :/

Answer 2

We want to solve a quadratic equation by completing squares.

What we need to use is the general relation:

[tex](a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2[/tex]

We will see that the solutions are:

[tex]x = 6 \pm \sqrt{13}[/tex]

We start with the equation:

[tex]x^2 - 12x + 23 = 0\\[/tex]

We can rewrite the middle term as:

[tex]x^2 - 2*6*x + 23 = 0\\[/tex]

Now remember that 6*6  = 36

Then we can add 13 and subtract 13 to get:

[tex]x^2 - 2*6*x + 23 + 13 - 13 = 0\\x^2 - 2*6*x + 36 - 13 = 0\\x^2 - 2*6*x + (-6)^2 - 13 = 0\\(x - 6)^2 - 13 = 0[/tex]

Then the solutions are:

[tex](x - 6) = \pm \sqrt{13} \\\\x = 6 \pm \sqrt{13}[/tex]

Diego measured the length of a pen to be 22 cm.

The actual length of the pen is 23 cm.

What is the percent error for Diego’s measurement?

Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

The answer is going to be 4.5%

Based on this question, we know that Diego measured the length of a pen which were to be 22cm so that we would get the actual length of the pen that is 23cm.

So what we need to do is do the percentage//which is decreasing

(22-22)/22x100

=1/22x100

=4.5%, therefore the percent error for Diego’s measurement is 4.5% because what we did was find the percentage decrease by multiplying 100 by 22 minus 22 over 22.

A spinner is evenly divided into eight sections: three are red, three are white and two are green. If the spinner is spun twice, then the probability of getting the same color twice is

Answers

Answer:

11/32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Red section (R) = 3 ; white section (W) = 3 ; green section (G) = 2

Total Number of sections = 8

Probability of getting the same color on two spins :

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

Either P(RR) or P(WW) or P(GG)

(3/8 * 3/8) + (3/8 * 3/8) + (2/8 * 2/8)

9/64 + 9/64 + 4/64

(9 + 9 + 4) / 64

22 / 64

= 11/32

the probability of getting the same color twice is

[tex]\frac{11}{32}[/tex]

Given :

A spinner is evenly divided into eight sections: three are red, three are white and two are green.

Total of 8 sections.

red=3

Farmer John can till his field 1.5 times faster than Farmer Bob. If they work together, they can till the field in 6 hours. How long would it take Farmer John on his own

Answers

Answer:

It would take Farmer John 10 hours on his own to till his field.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let;

J = Time spent by John alone

B = Time spent by Bob alone = 1.5 * J = 1.5J

Time spent by both = 6

Using reciprocal, time spent by John alone can be calculated as follows:

(1 / J) + (1 /1.5J) = 1 / 6

Multiply through by 6J and solve for J, we have:

(6J / J) + (6J / 1.5J) = 6J / 6

6 + (6 / 1.5) = J

J = 6 + 4 = 10

Therefore, it would take Farmer John 10 hours on his own to till his field.
