<h2>D. If subjects knew they were receiving an active treatment, researchers would not have known if any improvement was due to the new medication or to the expectation of <u>feeling </u>better. If the researchers knew which subjects received which treatments, they might have treated one group of subjects differently from the other group.</h2><h2 />
For your question... the answer would be D
Normally you would only solve by completing the square if a is 1 and b is even. But the answer would be half of b. So half of 9 is 4.5 or 4(1/2).
Answer:
5(d - 2) = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the given equation for d
3(d + 1) = 4(d - 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
3d + 3 = 4d - 8 ( subtract 3d from both sides )
3 = d - 8 ( add 8 to both sides )
11 = d
Then
5(d - 2) = 5(11 - 2) = 5(9) = 45
Factor out the common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms;
3x^2(b - 3x) - (b - 3x)
Factor out the common term b - 3x
<u>= (b - 3x)(3x^2 - 1)</u>
