What value of b makes the trinomial below a perfect square x^2-bx+100

Mathematics

Aloiza [94]3 years ago

1. Perfect square trinomials, are 2nd degree polynomials, of the form          a x^{2} +bx+c so that a \neq 0, b \neq 0, c \neq 0, which can be written as perfect squares.

2. For example (x+1) ^{2} = x^{2} +2x+1
 
(3x-1)^{2}= (3x)^{2}-2(3x)+(-1) ^{2}= 9x^{2}-6x+1    


3. Thus x^{2} +2x+1, 9x^{2}-6x+1 are perfect square trinomials.

4. x^{2} -bx+100= x^{2} -bx+ 10^{2}= (x+10)^{2}   or  (x-10)^{2}

5. In the first case -b=20, so b=-20. In the second case, -b=-20, so b=20.

6. b∈{-20, 20}

The rectangle below has an area of x^2-7x+10x square meters and a width of x-5x meters. What expression represents the length of
sergey [27]

Answer:

The area of a rectangle is:

\sf A=lw

Plug in what we know:

\sf x^2-7x+10=l(x-5)

Factor the left side:

\sf (x-2)(x-5)=l(x-5)

Divide (x - 5) to both sides:

\sf l=\boxed{\sf x-2}

So the length is x - 2 meters.
