Perimeter = 2 1/8 + 3 1/2 + 2 1/2 = 7 (1 + 4 + 4)/8 = 7 9/8 = 8 1/8
Quadratic formula is x=(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/(2a)
a= 1, b=-4, and c=3
Therefore, x=(-(-4)+-sqrt((-4)^2-4(1)(3))/(2(1))
Solve for both the plus and minus equations; the answers will be the roots to the quadratic equation.
Adiya’s method is not correct. To form a perfect square trinomial, the constant must be isolated on one side of the equation. Also, the coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 on the variable is used to find the constant in the perfect square trinomial. Adiya should first get the 20x term on the same side of the equation as x2. Then she would divide 20 by 2, square it, and add 100 to both sides.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First factor the second binomial
38^9 - 38^8 = 38^9 (38 - 1 ) = 38^9(37)
So there's your 37. This whole expression is divisible by 37
Now do the first binomial
36^5 - (36^4)*6
36^4(36 - 6)
36^4(30) and there's your thirty.
That first term is going to cause a bit of trouble showing that 36^4 * 6 = 6^9
6(36^4) = 6(6^2)^4 = 6^1 * 6^8 = 6^9
So this factors into 30*(36^4)*37*38^9
