Answer: x^2 - 14x + 49
Explanation:
1) Divide the coefficient of x by 2:
14 / 2 = 7
2) so you have to add 7^2 = 49
x^2 - 14x + 49
3) that trinomial is equivalent to:
=> (x - 7)^2
4) prove that using the formula (a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2
(x - 7)^2 = x^2 - 14x + 49
Then you have to add 49 to complete the square. and form a perfect square trinomial.
Given the equation A (x) = 30 x 8.3 ^x, we can get the
initial amount of A when x is equal to zero. Therefore:
A (0) = 30 * 8.3^0
A (0) = 30
In this case the equation grows by 8.3 times as x increases.
Therefore the growth factor is 8.3.
Answers:
initial amount = 30
growth factor = 8.3
The answers are not in the given choices. I believe you are
giving the wrong equation. If the correct equation here is:
A (x) = 680 x 4.3 ^x
Then the answers are:
initial amount = 680
growth factor = 4.3
The answers are now in the choices given.

1 + .3 +.07+.005 x 10 - 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first piece=x ft
second piece=2 x ft.
third piece=6 x ft.
x+2x+6x=180
9 x=180
x=20
first piece=20 ft.
