Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve an equation by completing the square in a quadratic formula
f(x)=ax²+bx+c
example :x²-6x-16=0
first rearrange if necessary, move the constant to one side .
x²-6x=16
second you find a new term to complete the square which is (b/2)², and add the term to both sides.(6/2)²=3²=9
x²-6x+9=16+9
x²-6x+9=25
third factorize : find the common factor between 6 and 9 which is 3
x²-6x+9=25
(x-3)²=25
last solve for x: (x-3)²=25
x-3=√25
x=3±5
x=3+5=8 or 3-5=-2
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(width)+2(length). We can multiply the length by 2 to find out how much remaining fencing we have, then divide that number by 2 to find the width.
15.5*2=31
170.5-31=139.5
139.5/2=69.75
A possible width is 69.75 feet.
In chemistry, the acidity of a solution is measured using the pH scale 0-14. A solution that's pH 3 is 10 times more acidic than a solution that's pH 4. The lower the pH the more acidic something is. The higher the pH the more basic something is. Water is generally around pH 7 (calculated using logarithms)
Also, in seismology. <span>Vibrations are picked up and plotted on a seismograph. The strength, or magnitude, of an earthquake is measured using the Richter scale. The Richter scale is numbered 0-10.

</span><span>So an earthquake thats a 5 on the Ricter scale is 10 times stronger/bigger than one that's a 3. (Logarithms)

Biologists that calculate population growth, whether animal, human or microorganism. When organisms create more organisms in a population they grow exponentially. (exponential functions)
Also, a lot of financial things like compound interest on a saving account or loan. (exponential function)

That is just another symbol for multiplication. hope this helps:)
