Step-by-step explanation:
a polygon is a plane figure that is described by finite number of line segments....
hope it helps
A)
x^2 - 6x + c = - 5 + c
using a^2 - 2ab + b^2 = (a-b)^2
so
6x = 2 * x * 3
so
c = 9
Answer
c = 9
b)
substitute c = 9
x^2 - 6x + 9 = - 5 + 9
(x - 3)^2 = 4
Answer:
(x - 3)^2 = 4
c) solve for x
(x - 3)^2 = 4
(x - 3)^2 = 2^2
so
x - 3 = 2
x = 5
and
x - 3 = -2
x = 1
Answer: x = 1 , 3
<span>In order to determine the value of the numbers, we can set up algebraic equations to solve. For this case, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknown numbers. We do as follows:
let x = first number and y = second number
From the problem statement, we set up equations.
Equation 1 - the numbers have a difference of 0.7
x - y = 0.7
Equation 2 - the numbers have a sum of 1
x + y = 1
Solving for x and y via substitution method,
x - y = 0.7
(1-y) - y = 0.7
1 - 2y = 0.7
-2y = 0.7 - 1 = -0.3
y = 0.15 or 3/20
x - 0.15 = 0.7
x = 0.85 or 17/20
Thus, the two numbers are 0.15 and 0.85.</span>
