First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now
2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4
At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real.
Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result.
For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196
No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.
So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to
x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
Answer:
A is $0.45 B is 2 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
A when you divide the cost by the ounces or $5.40 by 12 ounces you get $0.45 per ounce.
B $0.45 times 2 equals 90 cents and you cannot go over 1 dollar.
C you should be to do along with D with this information.
<em>C. A sphere with radius 0.6 inches.</em>
<u><em>Here is why:</em></u>
The equation for the volume of a sphere is:
We can plug in and solve.
We will multiply everything but leave the 3 to divide later.
So...
Divide by 3.
0.288π

The Pythagorean theorem.
The Demand that members must live in strict secrecy and loyalty.
The appeal to certain symbols like Tetraktys etc.
They believe the soul is destined for heaven,where it will United with the Divine.
They believe that reality including music and astronomy when at their repeat level are Mathematical in nature.
Step-by-step explanation: The Pythagorean brotherhood is believed to have originated from Sounthern Italian city known as Croton. It was started by a man called Pythagoras from Samos Greece, he is a controversial phylosopher.
The Pythagorean brotherhood formulated one the most widely used Theorems in Geometry which states that THE SQUARE OF THE HYPTHEMUS OF A RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE IS EQUAL TO THE SQUARE OF THE OPPOSITE AND THE BASE.
