Is my answer right???? Multiply: (6+√5)(4-2√5) Answer: 24-10√5
i will tell you if you show me every step you did to reach that answer:)
I found the answer to this, thank you :)
I have another one though, I'll show you how I got it :)
ok:) nice ill wait for it
Thanks!!! :)
Which of the following is a solution to √x + 10 + 8 = 3 My answer: -5 How? √-5 + 10 + 8 = 3.60555127546
what are the other options you have?
x = 15 x = 5 x = -5 x = -15
why do you think this: How? √-5 + 10 + 8 = 3.60555127546 proves that -5 is the solution to √x + 10 + 8 = 3? since you have to find a solution for √x + 10 + 8 = 3 you have to solve it for x.
try to solve the equation for x
I saw the three, and figured the rest would be cut off. Now i see how irrational it sounds.
15,-15,5 and -5 are all the options you have?
Yes
OH1 It would be a positive, so that narrows it down
hmm well my answer would be i*sqrt(15) but there is no such choice....have they tought you the imaginary numbers yet?
That's what I just got, the fifteen, but calculated there's a big number that doesn't even have the three in place
it has been addressed briefly
no w8 i got it wrong ...give me a sec
I did another problem just like it, and got one solid answer
did you get 225?
have to restart my modem brb!
ok!
a question!: maybe the equation is not √x + 10 + 8 = 3 but √(x + 10) + 8 = 3? because like this it would make sence
Let me check
It's still the former
√x + 10 = 3
without 8?
OOPS!!!!!! wrong wrong wrong!
√x + 10 = 8 = 3
write it again
Honestly none of them seem to work
Sorry i pressed the equal sign twice, my apologies
√x + 10 + 8 = 3
considering it equals a positive three, the only option are A and B, so I'm going with the former
i dont understand your way of deciding the answer...
It makes sense by what I have on my paper, I'm sorry
you dont have to be sry...im just curious myself:)
process of elimination, dear
I see the three, that's better than getting an answer that's not even in the problem that GIVES you the answer (it being 3) also, it's a positive three Although it makes little to no sense, that's the way to go because there's either an error in the whole problem, or I'm reading too into it
i can tell you that if the equation were: √(x + 10) + 8 = 3 then: √(x + 10) = 3-8 √(x + 10) = -5 √(x + 10) =√((-5)^2) x+10=(-5)^2 x+10=25 x=25-10 x=15
anyway , when you know the right answer please let me know about it!:)GL with it!
thanks!!!!!!! :) i will :) @MicroBot
