Firstly, Subtract the smallest number from the largest number

26 - - 2 = 28

28 spans over 5 numbers so we divide it to figure out the difference between each number

28 / 5 = 5.6

-2 is the 1st number

+5.6

3.6 is the 2nd number

+5.6

9.2 is the 3rd number

What equation results from completing the squre and then factoring x^2+10=15

nlexa [21]

For this case we must complete squares:

$x ^ 2 + 10x = 15$

We add the square of half the coefficient of the term "x",

$(\frac {b} {2a}) ^ 2$ on both sides of the equation:

$x^2+10x+(\frac {10} {2 (1)}) ^ 2 = 25 + 15\\x ^ 2 + 10x + 5 ^ 2 = 25 + 15$

According to the perfect square trinomial we have:

$(a + b) ^ 2 = a ^2 + 2ab + b ^ 2$

Rewriting the expression we have:

$a = x\\b = 5\\(x + 5) ^ 2 = 25 + 15\\(x + 5) ^ 2 = 40$

ANswer:

$(x + 5) ^ 2 = 40$
