Solving for x in a Mathematical Expression
The expression given in the image appears to be:
\[ x = \frac{(1.1 + \sqrt{11}) - 4(8)(20)}{2(1)} \]
To solve for \( x \), first compute the operations in the numerator:
1. Compute the square root of 11.
2. Add that result to 1.1.
3. Compute \( 4 \times 8 \times 20 \).
4. Subtract the result of step 3 from the result of step 2.
Then, for the denominator:
1. Compute \( 2 \times 1 \), which is simply 2.
Finally, divide the computed numerator by the computed denominator. Let's do the math step by step:
1. \( \sqrt{11} \approx 3.317 \)
2. \( 1.1 + 3.317 = 4.417 \)
3. \( 4 \times 8 \times 20 = 640 \)
4. \( 4.417 - 640 = -635.583 \)
Now, for the denominator:
1. \( 2 \times 1 = 2 \)
Divide the numerator by the denominator:
\[ x = \frac{-635.583}{2} = -317.7915 \]
So, \( x \approx -317.7915 \).
