Adiya said that the first step to solving the quadratic equation x2 + 6 = 20x by completing the square was to divide 6 by 2, squ

are that value, and add the result to both sides. Is Adiya’s solution method correct? Explain.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

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.  Hope it helps!

The U.S.A. Olympic Synchronized Swimming Team is designing a routine for their upcoming competition. From the center of the pool
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is;

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 5²  

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that the general equation of a circle is given as follows;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where;

(h, k) = The coordinates of the center of the circle

r = The radius of the circle

The given parameters are;

The location of the center of the pool to the center of their formation = 2 feet to the right and 4 feet up from the center of the pool

The point through which the circle which they form goes through = A point 3 feet to the left and 4 feet up from the center of their formation

Taking the center of the pool as the origin of the coordinate plane system, we have;

The coordinate of the center of the circle = The coordinate of their motion from the center of the circle

∴ The coordinate of the center of the circle = (2, 4)

∴ (h, k) = (2, 4)

h = 2, k = 4

The coordinate of the point through which the circle passes = (2 - 3, 4 + 4) = (-1, 8)

∴ The length of the radius, 'r', can be found as, r = √((-3)² + 4²) = 5 or r = √((-1 - 2)² + (8 - 4)²) = 5

r = 5

The equation of the circle is therefore presented by substituting the values of 'h', 'k', and 'r', as follows;

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 5².
