What Is The Value of P If 4x
What Is The Value of P If 4x
ChatGPT
To determine the value of P such that the quadratic expression 4x^2 + 20x + P is a perfect
square, you need to complete the square.
A perfect square expression has the form (ax + b)^2, where a and b are constants. To make 4x^2
+ 20x + P a perfect square, we'll rewrite it in that form.
Now, to complete the square, we need to add and subtract a constant term inside the
parentheses such that it makes a perfect square trinomial. In this case, the constant to add and
subtract is (5/2)^2 = 25/4.
Now, we can rewrite the expression with the perfect square trinomial:
Now, for it to be a perfect square, the constant term (-25 + P) should be zero because perfect
square trinomials have a constant term of zero:
-25 + P = 0
P = 25
So, the value of P that makes 4x^2 + 20x + P a perfect square is P = 25.
�=−�±�2−4��2�x=2c−b±b2−4ac
In this formula, �a, �b, and �c are the coefficients from your quadratic equation
��2−��+�=0cx2−ax+b=0.
Now, plug in the values for �a, �b, and �c from your equation
��2−��+�=0cx2−ax+b=0:
�=−(−�)±(−�)2−4�⋅�2�x=2c−(−a)±(−a)2−4c⋅b
Simplify further:
�=�±�2−4��2�x=2ca±a2−4cb
Now, you have the solution for �x, and you can use this formula to find the values of �x by
substituting the values of �a, �b, and �c from your specific quadratic equation.
For what value(s) of K does the equation 3y^2 - 6y + k = 0 have two equal roots?
ChatGPT
For a quadratic equation to have two equal roots, it must be a perfect square. In other words, the
discriminant (�2−4��b2−4ac) of the quadratic equation must be equal to zero, where �a,
�b, and �c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation ��2+��+�=0ay2+by+c=0.
�=�2−4��D=b2−4ac
�=(−6)2−4(3)(�)D=(−6)2−4(3)(k)
Simplify:
�=36−12�D=36−12k
For the equation to have two equal roots, �D must be equal to zero:
36−12�=036−12k=0
Now, solve for �k:
12�=3612k=36
�=3612k=1236
�=3k=3
So, the equation 3�2−6�+�=03y2−6y+k=0 has two equal roots when �=3k=3.
1. �+�=3x+y=3
2. �2+�2−2�=1x2+y2−2y=1
We'll use the first equation to solve for one variable and then substitute that into the second
equation.
�=3−�x=3−y
(3−�)2+�2−2�=1(3−y)2+y2−2y=1
9−6�+�2+�2−2�=19−6y+y2+y2−2y=1
2�2−8�+9=12y2−8y+9=1
2�2−8�+8=02y2−8y+8=0
�2−4�+4=0y2−4y+4=0
�−2=0y−2=0
�=2y=2
Now that we have found the value of �y, we can substitute it back into the first equation to find
�x:
�+2=3x+2=3
�=3−2x=3−2
�=1x=1
Find the positive number n, such that thrice it's square is equal to twelve times the number.
ChatGPT
To find the positive number �n such that three times its square is equal to twelve times the
number, you can set up an equation and solve for �n.
3�2=12�3n2=12n
Now, let's simplify this equation by dividing both sides by 3 to isolate (n:
�2=4�n2=4n
Next, subtract 4n from both sides to get the equation in standard quadratic form:
�2−4�=0n2−4n=0
�(�−4)=0n(n−4)=0
Now, we have two factors:
1. �=0n=0
2. �−4=0n−4=0
For a positive number, we can ignore the first solution ( �=0n=0) because it's not positive.
Therefore, we take the second solution:
�−4=0n−4=0
�=4n=4
So, the positive number �n that satisfies the given condition is �=4n=4.
Given your expression 4�2+5�+�4x2+5x+Q, you can see that it's almost in the form of a
perfect square trinomial. To complete the square, you need to add and subtract the appropriate
value.
4(�2+54�)+�4(x2+45x)+Q
3. To complete the square, you need to add and subtract the square of half of the
coefficient of �x, which is (54÷2)2=(58)2=2564(45÷2)2=(85)2=6425:
4(�2+54�+2564−2564)+�4(x2+45x+6425−6425)+Q
4((�+58)2−2564)+�4((x+85)2−6425)+Q
4(�+58)2−4⋅2564+�4(x+85)2−4⋅6425+Q
6. Simplify further:
4(�+58)2−10064+�4(x+85)2−64100+Q
4(�+58)2−2516+�4(x+85)2−1625+Q
�=−2516Q=−1625
So, the value of �Q that will make the expression 4�2+5�+�4x2+5x+Q a perfect square is
�=−2516Q=−1625.
Find the values of M which makes the following quadratic function a perfect square X^2 +
2(m+1)x + m + 3
ChatGPT
To make the quadratic function �2+2(�+1)�+�+3x2+2(m+1)x+m+3 a perfect square, you
need to complete the square. A perfect square trinomial has the form (�+�)2(x+a)2.
�2+2(�+1)�+�+3x2+2(m+1)x+m+3
To complete the square, you need to add and subtract the square of half of the coefficient of the
linear term (2(m+1)). Half of 2(m+1) is (m+1), and its square is (m+1)^2. So, add and subtract
(m+1)^2:
�2+2(�+1)�+(�+1)2−(�+1)2+�+3x2+2(m+1)x+(m+1)2−(m+1)2+m+3
(�+(�+1))2−((�+1)2−(�+3))(x+(m+1))2−((m+1)2−(m+3))
(�+(�+1))2−(�2+2�+1−�−3)(x+(m+1))2−(m2+2m+1−m−3)
(�+(�+1))2−(�2+�−2)(x+(m+1))2−(m2+m−2)
Now, to make this a perfect square, we need the constant term on the right side to be 0, just like
in a perfect square trinomial. So, set:
−(�2+�−2)=0−(m2+m−2)=0
−�2−�+2=0−m2−m+2=0
This is a quadratic equation in �m. We can solve it by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
Factoring:
−�2−�+2=−(�2+�−2)=0−m2−m+2=−(m2+m−2)=0
−(�+2)(�−1)=0−(m+2)(m−1)=0
So, the values of �m that make the quadratic function a perfect square are �=−2m=−2 and
�=1m=1.
The ages of Tosan and Isa differs by 6 and the product of their ages is 187.write their age in the
form (x, y) when x > y
ChatGPT
Let's call Tosan's age "x" and Isa's age "y". According to the given information:
1. The ages of Tosan and Isa differ by 6 years, which can be expressed as: x - y = 6
2. The product of their ages is 187, which can be expressed as: x * y = 187
1. x - y = 6
2. x * y = 187
You can solve this system of equations to find their ages. To do this, you can use the substitution
method.
y^2 + 6y - 187 = 0
To solve this quadratic equation, you can use the quadratic formula:
In this case, a = 1, b = 6, and c = -187. Plug these values into the formula:
y = (-6 ± √784) / 2
y = (-6 ± 28) / 2
1. y = (-6 + 28) / 2 = 22 / 2 = 11
2. y = (-6 - 28) / 2 = -34 / 2 = -17
Since ages are typically positive, we take the positive value for y, which is y = 11. Now, use the
equation x = y + 6 to find x:
x = 11 + 6 = 17
So, in the form (x, y) with x > y, Tosan is 17 years old, and Isa is 11 years old.
What will be the value of K so that the quadratic equation kx^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 has two equal roots?
ChatGPT
For a quadratic equation to have two equal roots, the discriminant ( �2−4��b2−4ac) must be
equal to zero, where �a, �b, and �c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation
��2+��+�=0ax2+bx+c=0.
�=�2−4��D=b2−4ac
�=(−4)2−4(�)(1)D=(−4)2−4(k)(1)
Simplify:
�=16−4�D=16−4k
For the equation to have two equal roots, �D must be equal to zero:
16−4�=016−4k=0
4�=164k=16
�=164k=416
�=4k=4
So, the value of �k that makes the quadratic equation ��2−4�+1=0kx2−4x+1=0 have two
equal roots is �=4k=4.
Let �=�u=x, then �2=�u2=x. Now, rewrite the equation in terms of �u:
�2+2�−8=0u2+2u−8=0
This is a quadratic equation in �u. You can solve it by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
Factoring is the simpler approach in this case:
(�+4)(�−2)=0(u+4)(u−2)=0
1. �+4=0u+4=0 �=−4u=−4
2. �−2=0u−2=0 �=2u=2
Now that you've found the possible values for �u, remember that �=�u=x. Square roots are
always non-negative, so �u cannot be negative. Therefore, the valid solution is:
�=2u=2
Now, substitute this value back into the equation to find �x:
�=2x=2
�=22x=22
�=4x=4
Let �=�u=x, then �2=�u2=x. Now, rewrite the equation in terms of �u:
�2−8�+15=0u2−8u+15=0
This is a quadratic equation in �u. You can solve it by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
Factoring is the simpler approach in this case:
(�−5)(�−3)=0(u−5)(u−3)=0
1. �−5=0u−5=0 �=5u=5
2. �−3=0u−3=0 �=3u=3
Now that you've found the possible values for �u, remember that �u is the square root of �x.
Square roots are always non-negative, so both solutions are valid:
So, the solutions to the equation �−8�+15=0x−8x+15=0 are �=25x=25 and �=9x=9.
Find the value of K which will make the quadratic expression 9x^2 - 12x + K is a perfect square
ChatGPT
To make the quadratic expression 9�2−12�+�9x2−12x+K a perfect square, you need to
complete the square. A perfect square trinomial has the form (��+�)2(ax+b)2.
Here's how you can complete the square for your expression:
Now, for the expression to be a perfect square, the constant term (-4 + K) should be zero,
because perfect square trinomials have a constant term of zero:
−4+�=0−4+K=0
�=4K=4
So, the value of �K that makes the quadratic expression 9�2−12�+�9x2−12x+K a perfect
square is �=4K=4.
�2−5�+6=0x2−5x+6=0
(�−2)(�−3)=0(x−2)(x−3)=0
Now, set each factor equal to zero:
(3�−2)(5�−4)3�−2=(3�−2)23�−23x−2(3x−2)(5x−4)=3x−2(3x−2)2
5�−4=3�−25x−4=3x−2
5�−3�−4=−25x−3x−4=−2
2�−4=−22x−4=−2
2�−4+4=−2+42x−4+4=−2+4
Simplify:
2�=22x=2
2�2=2222x=22
�=1x=1
So, the solution to the equation (3�−2)(5�−4)=(3�−2)2(3x−2)(5x−4)=(3x−2)2 is
�=1x=1.
Find the value of the constant K for which the equation 2x^2 + (k+3)x + 2k = 0, has equal roots
ChatGPT
For the quadratic equation 2�2+(�+3)�+2�=02x2+(k+3)x+2k=0 to have equal roots (i.e.,
be a perfect square or have a discriminant of zero), you can apply the discriminant formula:
�=�2−4��D=b2−4ac
�=(�+3)2−4(2)(2�)D=(k+3)2−4(2)(2k)
�=�2+6�+9−16�D=k2+6k+9−16k
�=�2−10�+9D=k2−10k+9
Now, for the equation to have equal roots, �D must be equal to zero:
�2−10�+9=0k2−10k+9=0
To solve this quadratic equation, you can either factor it or use the quadratic formula. In this case,
factoring is straightforward:
(�−1)(�−9)=0(k−1)(k−9)=0
So, there are two values of �k that make the equation 2�2+(�+3)�+2�=02x2+
(k+3)x+2k=0 have equal roots: �=1k=1 and �=9k=9.
What is the value of P if 4x^2 + 20x + P is a perfect square?
ChatGPT
To determine the value of P such that the quadratic expression 4x^2 + 20x + P is a perfect
square, you need to complete the square.
A perfect square expression has the form (ax + b)^2, where a and b are constants. To make 4x^2
+ 20x + P a perfect square, we'll rewrite it in that form.
Now, to complete the square, we need to add and subtract a constant term inside the
parentheses such that it makes a perfect square trinomial. In this case, the constant to add and
subtract is (5/2)^2 = 25/4.
Now, we can rewrite the expression with the perfect square trinomial:
Now, for it to be a perfect square, the constant term (-25 + P) should be zero because perfect
square trinomials have a constant term of zero:
-25 + P = 0
P = 25
So, the value of P that makes 4x^2 + 20x + P a perfect square is P = 25.
Now, you can solve this quadratic equation by factoring, completing the square, or using the
quadratic formula. In this case, I will factor the equation.
To factor, look for two numbers that multiply to -8 (the constant term) and add up to -2 (the
coefficient of the linear term). These two numbers are -4 and 2 because (-4) * 2 = -8 and (-4) + 2
= -2.
(�−4)(�+2)=0(x−4)(x+2)=0
1. �−4=0x−4=0 �=4x=4
2. �+2=0x+2=0 �=−2x=−2
So, the solutions of the equation �2−2�=8x2−2x=8 are �=4x=4 and �=−2x=−2.
Let �=�u=y, then �2=�u2=y. Now, rewrite the equation in terms of (u:
�2−11�+24=0u2−11u+24=0
This is a quadratic equation in �u. You can solve it by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
Factoring is the simpler approach in this case:
(�−3)(�−8)=0(u−3)(u−8)=0
1. �−3=0u−3=0 �=3u=3
2. �−8=0u−8=0 �=8u=8
Now that you've found the possible values for �u, remember that �u is the square root of �y.
Square roots are always non-negative, so both solutions are valid:
So, the solutions to the equation �−11�+24=0y−11y+24=0 are �=9y=9 and �=64y=64.
Find the possible value of M with which X^2 + (m-2)x + m + 1 = 0 has two equal roots.
ChatGPT
To have two equal roots for the quadratic equation �2+(�−2)�+�+1=0x2+
(m−2)x+m+1=0, the discriminant must be equal to zero. The discriminant ( �D) for a quadratic
equation ��2+��+�=0ax2+bx+c=0 is given by:
�=�2−4��D=b2−4ac
�=(�−2)2−4(1)(�+1)=0D=(m−2)2−4(1)(m+1)=0
(�−2)2−4(�+1)=0(m−2)2−4(m+1)=0
�2−4�+4−4�−4=0m2−4m+4−4m−4=0
�2−8�+4−4=0m2−8m+4−4=0
�2−8�=0m2−8m=0
Factor �m out:
�(�−8)=0m(m−8)=0
1. �=0m=0
2. �−8=0m−8=0
For a quadratic equation to have equal roots, you only need the discriminant to be zero, so the
solutions for �m are:
1. �=0m=0
2. �=8m=8
2�3−3�−5=02x3−3x−5=0
2. To find an approximate solution, you can use numerical methods, like the Newton-
Raphson method or a graphing calculator. Using a graphing calculator or software can be
the most convenient way.
3. Using a calculator or software, you can find an approximate solution, which is
approximately �≈−1.634x≈−1.634. Keep in mind that cubic equations can have one or
more real roots, and there may also be complex roots.

�2−3�−2�+6=12x2−3x−2x+6=12
�2−5�+6=12x2−5x+6=12
