Base = Height, Let them be x.

Solve quadratic equation:
x=6, x=-2(rejected because base and height is positive)
6x6/2 =18
Out of 100 flips, the nickel landed on tails 65 times.
P(tails)=65/100 or 0.65 or 65%
Answer 65%
Answer:
Option B. The equation has a maximum value with a y-coordinate of -21.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct quadratic equation is

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)
The vertex represent a maximum
Convert to vertex form
Factor -3

Complete the square


Rewrite as perfect squares

The vertex is the point (2,-21)
therefore
The equation has a maximum value with a y-coordinate of -21
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to complete the square before you can take the square root of both sides.

Subtract 10 from both sides.

To complete the square, you need to add the square of half of the x-term coefficient to both sides.
The x-term coefficient is 7. Half of that is 7/2. Square it to get 49/4. Now we add 49/4 to both sides of the equation.



Now we use the square root property, if
, then
