First, rearrange the equation so that only zero will be on the right side:

x^2 + 14x +24 = 0

Let the coefficients be:

a = 1

b = 14

c = 24

To complete the square, add (b/2)^2 to both sides of the equation:

(b/2)^2 = 49

x^2 + 14x + 49 + 24 = 49

x^2 + 14x + 49 = 25

(x+7)^2 = 25

Therefore, the solution set of the equation is {-12, -2}

Answer:

sin ^2 x+ cos ^2 x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

sin^2 x - cos ^2 x sin ^2 x = sin ^4 x

Factor sin^2 x

sin ^2 x ( 1- cos ^2 x ) = sin ^4 x

Using the identity   sin ^2 x+ cos ^2 x = 1  written as 1 -cos ^2 x = sin ^2 x

sin ^2 x ( sin^2 x ) = sin ^4 x

sin ^4 x = sin ^4 x

O'Henry Elementary School has a chess club. Of the students in the sixth
kiruha [24]

Answer:

35% of the sixth grade is in the chess club

Step-by-step explanation:

if there are 100 students consider that as 100%

20 is a fifth of 100

20 x 5 =100

since 7/20 is a fraction you multiple the numerator (7) with the same number you multiplied to the denominator (20) which is 5.

7 x 5 = 35

35/100 = 35%
