Q. Which equation has the same solution as x2−13x+13=−2 ?(x+6.5)2=27.25(x−6.5)2=−57.25(x−6.5)2=27.25(x+6.5)2=−57.25
Simplify Equation: Simplify the given equation by moving all terms to one side to set the equation to zero.We start with the equation x2−13x+13=−2 and add 2 to both sides to get:x2−13x+15=0
Pattern Matching: Look for a pattern in the given choices that matches the simplified equation.We need to find which of the given equations, when simplified, will result in x2−13x+15=0.
First Choice Analysis: Analyze the first choice x + 6.5)^2 = 27.25\. Expanding \$x + 6.5)^2\ gives \$x^2 + 13x + 42.25. This does not match our simplified equation x2−13x+15.
Second Choice Analysis: Analyze the second choice x - \(6.5)^2 = −57.25\. This choice is not valid because the square of a real number cannot be negative. Therefore, this equation does not have real solutions and cannot match our simplified equation.
Third Choice Analysis: Analyze the third choice (x−6.5)2=27.25. Expanding (x−6.5)2 gives x2−13x+42.25. This does not match our simplified equation x2−13x+15.
Fourth Choice Analysis: Analyze the fourth choice (x+6.5)2=−57.25. Similar to step 4, this choice is not valid because the square of a real number cannot be negative. Therefore, this equation does not have real solutions and cannot match our simplified equation.
Reevaluate Choices: Realize that none of the given choices match the simplified equation x2−13x+15=0. We must have made a mistake in our calculations or assumptions. Let's go back to step 3 and step 5 to recheck our expansions.
