Essentially 11(4d + 6) = 11*4d + 6*11
44d + 66
Answer:
- 5(x +1.5)^2
- 10(x +1)^2
- 1/4(x +2)^2
- 3(x +5/6)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
When your desired form is expanded, it becomes ...
a(x +b)^2 = a(x^2 +2bx +b^2) = ax^2 +2abx +ab^2
This tells you the overall factor (a) is the leading coefficient of the given trinomial. Factoring that out, you can find b as the root of the remaining constant.
a) 5x^2 +15x +11.25 = 5(x^2 +3x +2.25) = 5(x +1.5)^2
b) 10x^2 +20x +10 = 10(x^2 +2x +1) = 10(x +1)^2
c) 1/4x^2 +x +1 = 1/4(x^2 +4x +4) = 1/4(x +2)^2
d) 3x^2 +5x +25/12 = 3(x^2 +5/3x +25/36) = 3(x +5/6)^2

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you know beforehand that the expressions can be factored this way, finding the two constants (a, b) is an almost trivial exercise. It gets trickier when you're trying to write a general expression in vertex form (this form with an added constant). For that, you must develop the value of b from the coefficient of the linear term inside parentheses.
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles opposite shorter sides of a triangle are smaller, and angles opposite longer sides in a triangle are larger.
Answer: 1957 meters
Solution: 4506-2549=1957
Therefore she ran 1957 meters more on Monday than on Tuesday.
1. The answer is two because if you factor what you can from the equation and then simplify, you are left with 2v+16=(v+8)(?), and by looking at it, the correct answer is two, or A. Review your work, make sure to check your answers before submitting
2. Since two simple factors of 8 are 4 and 2, and they add up to 6, the correct answer is (x+4)(x+2), or B
3. Again, two simple factors of 12 are -4 and -3, so the correct answer is (x-3)(x-4), or D
4. Basically, just factor the quadratic trinomial g^2-2g-24, which turns out to (G+4)(g-6), which is B
