Since the constant has been moved to the left side, you can move on to the next step which is adding (b/2)² to both sides of the equation.

h² + 14h + (14/2)² = -31 + (14/2)²

Simplify the parenthesis and exponent.

h² + 14h + 7² = -31 + 7²

h² + 14h + 49 = -31 + 49

h² + 14h + 49 = 18

Factor the expression of the left.

(h + 7)(h + 7) = 18

Take the square root of both sides.

√(h + 7)(h + 7) = ± √9 • 2

(h + 7) = ± 3√2

h + 7 = ± 3√2

Subtract 7 from both sides.

You solutions are:

h = -7 + 3√2 → -2.7573 → -2.76

h = -7 - 3√2 → -11.2426 → -11.24

Given   <span>H^2+14h=-31, let's complete the square of the 1st two terms:

h^2 + 14h + (14/2)^2  =  -31 + (14/2)^2

  h^2 + 14h + 49   =   -31 + 49 = 18

   (h+7)^2 = 18

Taking the sqrt of both sides,

h+7 = sqrt (9*2) = 3 sqrt(2)

Solving for h,    h= -7 plus or minus 3 sqrt(2)    (answer)</span>

Suppose exercise 2 asked how many photos fit on the first 6 pages of Miguel’s album. Explain how you could find the answer.
gladu [14]

Do 6 right hand times 4 right hand photos.  Then you do 6 left hand with 3 left hand photos. 24 plus 18 is 42

The odds against Carl beating his friend in a round of golf are 9:7. Find the probability that Carl will lose?
grandymaker [24]

The ratio 9:7 gives you following statement:

  • Carl will win in 9 cases from 9+7=16;
  • Carl will lose in 7 cases from 16.

Then the probability that Carl will lose is

Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Answer: Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

What is the value of x so that the line segment with endpoints W(x, −2) and X(5, −4) is parallel to the line segment with endpoi
professor190 [17]
Uhhhh I don't think that the correct answer.
First, find the gradient of the line segment.
Gradient = Rise/Run = (2-6)/(2-5) = 4/3.
Since the other line segment is parallel to this line segment, their gradients are the same.
That means (-2+4)/(x-5) = 4/3.
2/(x-5) = 4/3
It is obvious x = 6.5
