Answer:
the last option
Step-by-step explanation:
can you show the rest of the last option? if there isn't anything cutoff, then the last option would be correct. also, you can use desmos .com next time to help you graph
First you must have the quadratic equal to zero. In order to do this you must subtract 7 to both sides
x^2 + 20x + (100 - 7) = 7 - 7
x^2 + 20x + 93 = 0
Now you must find two numbers who's sum equals 20 and their multiplication equal 93
Are there any? NO!
This means that you have to use the formula:
![\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-b%C2%B1%5Csqrt%7Bb%5E%7B2%7D%20-%204ac%7D%20%7D%7B2a%7D)
In this case:
a = 1
b = 20
c = 93
![\frac{-(20) plus/minus\sqrt{20^{2} - 4(1)(93)} }{2*1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-%2820%29%20plus%2Fminus%5Csqrt%7B20%5E%7B2%7D%20-%204%281%29%2893%29%7D%20%7D%7B2%2A1%7D)
![\frac{-20 plus/minus\sqrt{400 - 372} }{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-20%20plus%2Fminus%5Csqrt%7B400%20-%20372%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D)
![\frac{-20 plus/minus\sqrt{28} }{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-20%20plus%2Fminus%5Csqrt%7B28%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D)
^^^We must simplify √28
√28 = 2√7
so...
![\frac{-20 plus/minus 2\sqrt{7} }{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-20%20plus%2Fminus%202%5Csqrt%7B7%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D)
simplify further:
![-10 plus/minus\sqrt{7](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-10%20plus%2Fminus%5Csqrt%7B7)
-10 + √7
or
-10 - √7
***plus/minus = ±

Answer:
![-\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cdfrac%7B4a%5E%7B12%7Db%5E8%7D%7B5%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
![\dfrac{1}{a^{-b}}=a^b\\\\a^ba^c=a^{b+c}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Ba%5E%7B-b%7D%7D%3Da%5Eb%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%5Eba%5Ec%3Da%5E%7Bb%2Bc%7D)
Your ratio simplifies to ...
![\dfrac{-8a^8b^{-2}}{10a^{-4}b^{-10}}=-\dfrac{4}{5}a^{8-(-4)}b^{-2-(-10)}\\\\=-\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B-8a%5E8b%5E%7B-2%7D%7D%7B10a%5E%7B-4%7Db%5E%7B-10%7D%7D%3D-%5Cdfrac%7B4%7D%7B5%7Da%5E%7B8-%28-4%29%7Db%5E%7B-2-%28-10%29%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D-%5Cdfrac%7B4a%5E%7B12%7Db%5E8%7D%7B5%7D)

Please note that simplifying the constants, -8/10 to -4/5, eliminates half the answer choices. Since exponents are only multiplied when a power is raised to a power, you can pretty much eliminate the second choice as being unreasonable. ((a^b)^c = a^(bc))
