11 answers

To solve the equation \( x^2 = 1625 \) by inspection, we take the square root of both sides:

\[ x = \pm \sqrt{1625} \]

Next, we simplify \( \sqrt{1625} \). We can factor 1625 into its prime factors:

\[ 1625 = 25 \times 65 = 25 \times 5 \times 13 = 5^2 \times 5 \times 13 = 5^3 \times 13 \]

Now we can simplify \( \sqrt{1625} \):

\[ \sqrt{1625} = \sqrt{25 \times 65} = \sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{65} = 5 \sqrt{65} \]

Thus, the solutions for \( x \) are:

\[ x = \pm 5\sqrt{65} \]

The two real solutions are \( -5\sqrt{65} \) and \( 5\sqrt{65} \).

To ensure these answers are in simplest fraction form:

  • As \( \sqrt{65} \) is not a perfect square, we can leave it as it is in radical form.

Thus, the final solutions, ordered with the lesser number first, are:

\[ -5\sqrt{65}, 5\sqrt{65} \]

To solve the quadratic equation \( (x + 3)^2 = 36 \) using square roots, follow these steps:

  1. Take the square root of both sides:

    \[ x + 3 = \pm \sqrt{36} \]

  2. Simplify:

    \[ x + 3 = \pm 6 \]

  3. Solve for \( x \) by considering both the positive and negative cases.

    • Case 1: \[ x + 3 = 6 \] Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ x = 6 - 3 = 3 \]

    • Case 2: \[ x + 3 = -6 \] Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ x = -6 - 3 = -9 \]

  4. Final solutions:

The solutions to the equation \( (x + 3)^2 = 36 \) are:

\[ x = 3 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -9 \]

Solve the following quadratic equation using square roots. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary: (x−6)2=51

To solve the quadratic equation \( (x - 6)^2 = 51 \) using square roots, follow these steps:

  1. Take the square root of both sides: \[ x - 6 = \pm \sqrt{51} \]

  2. Simplify: \[ x - 6 = \sqrt{51} \quad \text{or} \quad x - 6 = -\sqrt{51} \]

  3. Solve for \( x \) by considering both the positive and negative cases.

    • Case 1: \[ x - 6 = \sqrt{51} \] Add 6 to both sides: \[ x = 6 + \sqrt{51} \]

    • Case 2: \[ x - 6 = -\sqrt{51} \] Add 6 to both sides: \[ x = 6 - \sqrt{51} \]

  4. Evaluate the square root and round to the nearest hundredth: \[ \sqrt{51} \approx 7.14 \]

    • For Case 1: \[ x = 6 + \sqrt{51} \approx 6 + 7.14 \approx 13.14 \]
    • For Case 2: \[ x = 6 - \sqrt{51} \approx 6 - 7.14 \approx -1.14 \]
  5. Final solutions:

The solutions to the equation \( (x - 6)^2 = 51 \) are approximately:

\[ x \approx 13.14 \quad \text{and} \quad x \approx -1.14 \]

thats rong it wants you to find the total and round it if needed

Apologies for the misunderstanding. Let's combine the solutions correctly and provide the total.

Given the solutions we derived from the equation \( (x - 6)^2 = 51 \):

  1. The two solutions are:

    • \( x_1 = 6 + \sqrt{51} \)
    • \( x_2 = 6 - \sqrt{51} \)
  2. Calculating the values:

    • We previously approximated \( \sqrt{51} \approx 7.14 \):
      • \( x_1 \approx 6 + 7.14 = 13.14 \)
      • \( x_2 \approx 6 - 7.14 = -1.14 \)
  3. Finding the total of the two solutions: \[ \text{Total} = x_1 + x_2 = (6 + \sqrt{51}) + (6 - \sqrt{51}) \]

    • The \(\sqrt{51}\) cancels out: \[ \text{Total} = 6 + 6 = 12 \]

So, the total of the two solutions is \( \boxed{12} \).

Thank you for your clarification!

Solve the following quadratic equation using square roots
Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary

I apologize for the confusion in the previous responses. Let's solve the equation \( (x - 6)^2 = 51 \) correctly this time and find the actual values.

Steps to solve:

  1. Take the square root of both sides: \[ x - 6 = \pm \sqrt{51} \]

  2. Calculate \( \sqrt{51} \):

    • First, we find the approximate value of \( \sqrt{51} \): \[ \sqrt{51} \approx 7.14 \]
  3. Set up the two equations:

    • Positive case: \[ x - 6 = \sqrt{51} \] \[ x = 6 + \sqrt{51} \approx 6 + 7.14 \approx 13.14 \]

    • Negative case: \[ x - 6 = -\sqrt{51} \] \[ x = 6 - \sqrt{51} \approx 6 - 7.14 \approx -1.14 \]

  4. Final solutions:

    • \( x_1 \approx 13.14 \)
    • \( x_2 \approx -1.14 \)

Total of the solutions:

Next, we will find the total of these solutions. \[ \text{Total} = 13.14 + (-1.14) = 12.00 \]

Rounding to the nearest hundredth:

Since this calculation results in a whole number, the final answer remains: \[ \text{Total} = 12.00 \]

So, after verifying everything step by step, the total of the two solutions is 12.00. Thank you for your patience!

still wrong

I apologize for any confusion in my previous responses. Let's solve the equation step-by-step and find the correct total while being mindful of rounding as needed at each step.

Given Equation

\[ (x - 6)^2 = 51 \]

Step 1: Take the square root of both sides

\[ x - 6 = \pm \sqrt{51} \]

Step 2: Calculate \(\sqrt{51}\)

To find \( \sqrt{51} \):

\[ \sqrt{51} \approx 7.1414 \]

Step 3: Solve for \(x\)

Now, we’ll consider both cases (positive and negative):

  1. Positive Case: \[ x - 6 = \sqrt{51} \implies x = 6 + \sqrt{51} \approx 6 + 7.1414 \approx 13.1414 \]

  2. Negative Case: \[ x - 6 = -\sqrt{51} \implies x = 6 - \sqrt{51} \approx 6 - 7.1414 \approx -1.1414 \]

Step 4: Round to the nearest hundredth

  • For \( x_1 \): \[ x_1 \approx 13.14 \]
  • For \( x_2 \): \[ x_2 \approx -1.14 \]

Step 5: Find the total of the solutions

Now, we need to sum the solutions:

\[ \text{Total} = 13.14 + (-1.14) = 12.00 \]

Conclusion

The total of the solutions is indeed \( \mathbf{12.00} \).

If you're looking for individual answers rather than their total, the two approximate answers are:

  • \( x_1 \approx 13.14 \)
  • \( x_2 \approx -1.14 \)

The total remains 12.00 when summarizing both solutions.

If you meant something else by "finding the total," please clarify so I can assist you better! Thank you for your understanding.
