Answer:
a = -4
b = 3
c = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 8x = 38
We take the coefficient of the x term
Divide by 2 and then square it
8/2 =4
4^2 = 16
Add 16 to both sides
x^2 +8x + 16 = 38 + 16
x^2 +8x +16 = 54
Take b/2 and use it in the the (x+b/2)^2
(x+4)^2 = 54
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x+4)^2) = ± sqrt(54)
x+4 = ± sqrt(54)
Subtract 4 from each side
x+4-4 = -4 ± sqrt(54)
x = -4 ± sqrt(54)
Simplify the square root
x = -4 ± sqrt(9*6)
x = -4 ± sqrt(9) sqrt(6)
x = -4 ± 3 sqrt(6)

The side length is the cube root of 460.
cube root(460) = 460^(1/3)
That's approximately 7.7
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
if z=8 then z^2 would be 64, which is not equal to 80
iz z=9 then z^2 would be 81, which is closer to 80 than 64
therefore, 9 is the whole number than z would be closest to
