To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation
-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 =

Answer:
Easy. 7 because the greatest amount of people is 10 and above it is 7 x's!!!!
Answer:
m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
<em>m</em> = slope
<em>b</em> = y-intercept
We are given the equation y = -3x + 2. Therefore, our slope is -3 and our y-int is 2.
