First, set up variables for each runner to calculate the time:
x = faster runner
x + 0.5 = slower runner

Next, set up an equation:
9x = 6(x + 0.5)
9x = 6x + 3
3x = 3
x = 1

Since both of the runners are starting at the same place and running on the same trail, they will run the same distance. They both ran 1 mile.

Complete the square to make a perfect square trinomial. Then, write the result as a binomial squared. n^2-4n/3
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

(n- 2/3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Perfect square trinomial is: </em><em>a²+2ab+b²= (a+b)²</em>

We have:

  • n² - 4n/3

It can be put as:

  • n² -2×n×2/3

Here we consider n = a and -2/3 = b, then

  • b²= (-2/3)²= 4/9

Now we add 4/9 to a given binomial to make it perfect square:

  • n² - 2×n×3/2 + 4/9= (n- 2/3)²

So, added 4/9 and got a perfect square (n- 2/3)²
