Doing this so I can ask sorry
Answer:
No, I'm not old enough to work at taco bell yet
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, so we have tickets for 8 dollars. The number of tickets can represent x, and the money totaled is 8x. x=16+17+13=46, so we can substitute that in to get 8*46 for the total revenue=368 dollars
The missing number is the square-root of the constant term on the left-hand-side, which equals sqrt(1/16)=1/sqrt(16)=1/4.
Check:
(x+1/4)^2=x^2+2*(1/4)x+(1/4)^2=x^2+x/2+1/16. ok
Answer: x= 1/4
