How do you find the missing number of a perfect square trinomial? 25x^2 - 60x + ___

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago

Answer:

  36

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare what you have to the square ...

  (a +b)^2 = a^2 +2ab +b^2

Your "a" is √(25x^2) = 5x

Your "2ab" is -60x. Since you know "a", you can find "b".

  2ab = -60x

  2(5x)b = -60x . . . . . . . substitute for "a"

  b = -60x/(10x) = -6

Then the missing term is b^2 = (-6)^2 = 36.

Your trinomial is ...

  25x^2 -60x +<u>36</u>

Then s = 27 / (1 - 3) ;

Finally, s = - 27 / 2;

Nolan rides his bike 63 miles in 270 minutes. What is his average speed in miles per hour?
boyakko [2]
Here, to find the average rate of change, you would simply divide 270 by 63. And when that is done, you would get a long decimal. 4.285714285714286

And since you obviously can't put in such a long decimal as your answer, you would round it instead. Once rounded, you would end up with 4.29 (because the number after 8 is five, which rounds up, which would turn the 8 to 9.)

You want to isolate the variable 'y'.

\sf -3y+10=-14

Subtract 10 to both sides:

\sf -3y=-24

Divide -3 to both sides:

\sf y=\boxed{\sf 8}
