Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve using completing square, we need to write the equation as x2+3x=17.
The next step is to add a number such that the square can be completed. The number must be equal to (b/2a)^2, so here it will be (3/2)^2 = 9/4
The equation then becomes x2+3x+(9/4)=17+(9/4).
Solving it further will get you the final answer
Answer:
30 pounds of hard candy and 30 pouonds of soft candy
Step-by-step explanation:
$2 per pound added with $4 per pound would become $3 per pound
x pounds plus 60 - x pounds will add up to 60 pounds
(multiply the top with the bottom)
2x + 4x = 3(60)
6x = 180
x = 30
60 - 30 = 30
Area of a triangle is base × height ÷2
base=8x+4 x=-4/8 x=-1/2
height=3x-4 x=4/3
A=b×h÷2
A=(-1/2×4/3)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2/1 to divide by fractions flip the second and multiply
A=-4/6×1/2
A=-4/12
A=-1/3
Answer:
. Simplify: (4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x).
Solution:
(4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x)
= 4x2 - 2x + 5x2 + 8x.
= 4x2 + 5x2 - 2x + 8x.
= 9x2 + 6x.
= 3x(3x + 2).
Answer: 3x(3x + 2) Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence that represents a geometric sequence can be seen in the 1st option and the 4th option in the image attached.
<h3>What is a geometric sequence?</h3>
A geometric sequence is a set of integers that follows a pattern in which the following term is determined by multiplying the previous one by a factor known as the common ratio (r).
or 



From the options given, the options that have geometric sequences are:
r = (3/8)/(3/16) = (3/4)/(3/8) = 2 (proves that it is a geometric sequence)
- 3, 9, 27, 81
- r = 9/3 = 27/9 = 3 (proves that it is a geometric sequence)
