Explain the steps used to solve x - 2 = v ( x + 10) and check for extraneous solutions.

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - 2 =

Square both sides to clear the radical

(x - 2)² = x + 10 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² - 4x + 4 = x + 10 ( subtract x + 10 from both sides )

x² - 5x - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.

x = - 1 : left side = - 1 - 2 = - 3

right side = = = 3 ≠ - 3

---------------------------------------------------

x = 6 : left side = 6 - 2 = 4

right side = = = 4

----------------------------------------------

Thus x = 6 is the solution, x = - 1 is an extraneous solution

1 1/4 hours

step-by-step explanation:

2/4 + 2/4 + 1/4 = 5/4 or 1 1/4

intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

step-by-step explanation:

required vector is consists of the two componentsvx= 2+4=6 units   and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vywe will use pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector vv∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 unitsthe angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanαtanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°
