Answer:
"complete the square" to put in vertex form
Step-by-step explanation:
It may be helpful to consider the square of a binomial:
(x +a)² = x² +2ax +a²
The expression x² +x +1 is in the standard form of the expression on the right above. Comparing the coefficients of x, we see ...
2a = 1
a = 1/2
That means we can write ...
(x +1/2)² = x² +x +1/4
But we need x² +x +1, so we need to add 3/4 to the binomial square in order to make the expressions equal:

_____
Another way to consider this is ...
x² +bx +c
= x² +2(b/2)x +(b/2)² +c -(b/2)² . . . . . . rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²*
= (x +b/2)² +(c -(b/2)²)
for b=1, c=1, this becomes ...
x² +x +1 = (x +1/2)² +(1 -(1/2)²)
= (x +1/2)² +3/4
_____
* This process, "rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²," is called "completing the square"—especially when written as (x-h)² +k, a parabola with vertex (h, k).
Calculate the number of hours between 4 PM and 10 AM:
4 PM to 4 AM is 12 hours.
4 AM to 10 AM is 6 hours
Total hours is 12 + 6 = 18 hours.
18 hours x 70 km/hr = 1,260 km total.
the formula for volume of a prism is base x height
Let,
f(x) = -2x+34
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
h(x) = -|3x|
k(x) = (x-2)^2
This is a trial and error type of problem (aka "guess and check"). There are 24 combinations to try out for each problem, so it might take a while. It turns out that
g(h(k(f(15)))) = -6
f(k(g(h(8)))) = 2
So the order for part A should be: f, k, h, g
The order for part B should be: h, g, k f
note how I'm working from the right and moving left (working inside and moving out).
Here's proof of both claims
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 1:
f(x) = -2x+34
f(15) = -2(15)+34
f(15) = 4
-----------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (f(15)-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (4-2)^2
k(f(15)) = 4
-----------------
h(x) = -|3x|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*k(f(15))|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*4|
h(k(f(15))) = -12
-----------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-h(k(f(15))) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-(-12) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = -6
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 2:
h(x) = -|3x|
h(8) = -|3*8|
h(8) = -24
---------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-h(8)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-(-24)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = -2
---------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (g(h(8))-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (-2-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = 16
---------------
f(x) = -2x+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(k(g(h(8))) )+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(16)+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = 2
