How do you factor x squared plus x minus one half?
(x^2+x-1/2)= x(x+1)-1/2 [x + (1 - square root of 3)/2][x + (1 + square root of 3)/2] = 0 Check it: x^2 + x/2 + (square root of 3)x)/2 + x/2 + 1/4 + (square root of 3)/4 - (square root of 3)x/2 - (square root of 3)/4 - 3/4 = 0 x^2 + x/2 + x/2 + [(square root of 3)x]/2 - [(square root of 3)x]/2 + (square root of 3)/4 - (square root of 3)/4 + 1/4 - 3/4 = 0 x^2 + x - 2/4 = 0 x^2 + x - 1/2 = 0 How to find this roots: Using the completing the square method: x^2 + x - 1/2 = 0 x^2 + x = 1/2 x^2 + x + 1/4 = 1/2 + 1/4 (x + 1/2)^2 = 3/4 x + 1/2 = (plus & minus)(square root of 3/4) x = -1/2 + (square root of 3)/2 x = - 1/2 - (square root of 3)/2
What are two numbers whose sum -6 and product is -5?
-2 and -3Check:(-2) + (-3) = -5(-2)(-3) = 6Thus -2 and -3 are not the required numbers. let's find them: x + y = -6xy = -5 y = -x -6x(-x - 6) = -5-x^2 - 6x = -5x^2 + 6x = 5x^2 + 6x + 9 = 5 + 9(x + 3)^2 = 14x + 3 = (+ & -)square root of 14x = -3 (+ & -)square root of 14x = -3 + square root of 14 or x = - 3 - square root of 14y = -x - 6y = 3 - square root of 14 - 6 or y = 3 + square root of 14 - 6y = -3 - square root of 14 or y = -3 + square root of 14Check:(-3 + square root of 14) + (-3 - square root of 14) = -6(-3 + square root of 14)(-3 - square root of 14) = -5 ?(-3)^2 - (square root of 14)^2 = -5 ?9 - 14 = -5Check also tow other numbers.
Square root of 27 divided by the square root of 3?
root 27 = root 9 x root 3 = 3 root 3. Dividing this by root 3 gives 3!
What is the square root of 3 times the square root of 27?
√3 x √27 = 9
How do you take the square root of exponents?
You divide the exponent by 2 The square root of a number is that number to the 1/2 power So for examle square root of x cubed (x^3) is x^3 to the half power =x^3/2 (x to the 3/2 power)
