To answer this question, you will represent the amount of yards rushed by each running back.

x - Running back #1
9x - Running back #2

The combined yards was 1550, so put these together in an addition equation with a total of 1550.  Solve for x.

x + 9x = 1550
10x = 1550
x = 155

Running back #1 rushed 155 yards, and running back #2 rushed for 1395 yards.

Answer:

(x + 9)² = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 18x + 57 = 12 ( subtract 57 from both sides )

x² + 18x = - 45

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides

x² + 2(9)x + 81 = - 45 + 81

(x + 9)² = 36
