Find the value of c that completes the square x ^2 - 2x + c

1 answer:

8 0

The value of c to complete the square is one. In order to find the c value you divide the b value (-2) by 2 (-1) and then square that. -1 squared is 1. This can then be easily factored into (x-1)^2

Luke’s that seven pieces of wood on top of one another if each piece was 4/8 of a foot tall how tall was his pile

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

6 1/2 feet or 78 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply 4/8 by 7/1

First you multiply the nominators: 4 × 7 = 28

Then you multiply the denominators: 8 × 1 = 8

So the fraction would be 28/8 and it simplifies to 7/2

You can turn it into an improper fraction by seeing how many times 2 will go into seven evenly, which would be 6 times with 1 half left over

Therefore it would be 6 1/2 feet or 78 inches tall

A and b are positive integers and a-b=2. Evaluate the following:<br> 9^1/2b/3^a

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{ 9 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge \frac{ {9}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ {( {3}^{2} )}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ { {3}}^{2 \times \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{ {3}^{b} }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ {3}^{a - b} } \\ \\ \huge= \frac{1}{ {3}^{2} } \\ ( \because \: a - b = 2)\\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ 9 }$
