Answer:
The first picture is B and the second one is (0,-3)
If we say:
x = the number we want to find
Then, we can formulate an equation using the information given:
1414 - 4x/5 = 4
Now, we just solve for x:
4x/5 + 4 = 1414
4x/5 = 1410
4x = 7050
x = 1762.5
Answer:
It is a perfect square. Explanation below.
Explanation:
Perfect squares are of the form
(
a
+
b
)
2
=
a
2
+
2
a
b
+
b
2
. In polynomials of x, the a-term is always x.(
(
x
+
c
)
2
=
x
2
+
2
c
x
+
c
2
)
x
2
+
8
x
+
16
is the given trinomial. Notice that the first term and the constant are both perfect squares:
x
2
is the square of x and 16 is the square of 4.
So we find that the first and last terms correspond to our expansion. Now we must check if the middle term,
8
x
is of the form
2
c
x
.
The middle term is twice the constant times x, so it is
2
×
4
×
x
=
8
x
.
Okay, we found out that the trinomial is of the form
(
x
+
c
)
2
, where
x
=
x
and
c
=
4
.
Let us rewrite it as
x
2
+
8
x
+
16
=
(
x
+
4
)
2
. Now we can say it is a perfect square, as it is the square of
(
x
+
4
)
.
