Complete the square

since a=1 for ax²+bx²+c=0
we can do
take 1/2 of the linear coefient and square it
-6/2=-3, (-3)²=9
add that to both sides

x²-3x+9-25=9
factor perfect square trinomial
(x-3)²-25=9
add 25 to both sides
(x-3)²=34
sqrt both sides, rmember to take positive and negative roots
x-3=+/-√34
add 3
x=3+/-√34

x=3+√34 or 3-√34

Find the coordinates for the midpoint of the segment with endpoints given. (12, 4) and (-8, 8) (2, 6) (10, 6) (2, 2)
cluponka [151]
The given coordinates are:
p1: (12,4) and p2: (-8,8)

Th x coordinate of the midpoint is calculated as follows:
Xmidpoint = (x1+x2) / 2 = (12+-8) / 2 = 4/2 = 2

The y coordinate of the midpoint is calculated as follows:
Ymidpoint = (y1+y2) / 2 = (4+8) / 2 = 12/2 = 6

Based on the above calculations, the midpoint of the segment with the given coordinates is (2,6)

PART A
Change the fractions into improper fractions
pablo - rosa = 4 4/9 - 3 5/12
pablo - rosa = 40/9 - 41/12

Equalize the denominator of the fractions
I equalize them to 36. If the denominator 9 is multiplied by 4, so is the numerator. If the denominator 12 is multiplied by 3, so is the numerator.
pablo - rosa = 40/9 - 41/12
pablo - rosa = (40 × 4)/(9 × 4) - (41 × 3)/(12 × 3)
pablo - rosa = 160/36 - 123/36
pablo - rosa = 37/36

Change it to mixed fraction
pablo - rosa = 37/36
pablo - rosa = 1 1/36

Pablo has 1 1/36 quarts more than Rosa

PART B
Calculate the iced tea Pablo gave to Rosa
Change into proper fraction/improper fraction
iced tea given = 15% × 4 4/9
iced tea given = 15/100 × 40/9
iced tea given = 600/900
iced tea given = 2/3

Calculate Pablo's iced tea after giving
Pablo's = 40/9 - 2/3
Pablo's = 40/9 - (2 × 3)/(3×3)
Pablo's = 40/9 - 6/9
Pablo's = 34/9
Pablo's = 3 7/9

Calculate Rosa's iced tea
Rosa's = 41/12 + 2/3
Rosa's = 41/12 + (2 × 4)/(3 × 4)
Rosa's = 41/12 + 8/12
Rosa's = 49/12
Rosa's = 4 1/12

Pablo has 3 7/9 quarts and Rosa has 4 1/12 quarts
