7 0

Once you complete the square, the simplified version of this equation is

(2x - 1)^2= 0

If you want to solve for x, subtract 1 and divide by 2.

x = 0.5

How to graph this! Thank you

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yay graphs!!!!!!

Okay so as you should know, the structure of a linear equation is y = mx + b.

B is the y-intercept

so the first thing to do is mark the coordinates (0,1) as the y-intercept

Now the slope is 1/4 x

this is also known as rise/run

A simpler way to do that is from (0,1) move up 1 and over four and place a point there

The coordinate should be (4,1)

Then draw a line through the two points

Questions:

A clothing manufacturer uses the model a = √(f + 4) - √(36 - f) to estimate the amount of fabric to order from a mill. In the formula, a is the number of apparel items (in hundreds) and f is the number of units of fabric needed. If 400 apparel items will be manufactured , how many units of fabric should be ordered?

Answer:

32 units of fabrics

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = \sqrt{f + 4} - \sqrt{36 - f}$
