A) A=500(1+0.015)^t
b)800=500(1.015)^t
800/500=1.015^t
t=log(800/500)/log(1.015)
t=31.6 years
Completing the square is a method used to solve a quadratic equation by changing the shape of the equation so that the left side is a perfect square trinomial.
The following equation makes more sense to solve it complete squares:
x² + 20x = 52
We have then:
x² + 20x + (10) ^ 2 = 52 + 100
(x + 10) ² = 152
Answer:
The most sense to solve by completing the square is for:
B) x² + 20x = 52
Well think of it like this. lets say your teacher made you do this problem -48 - 10. I would just act like 48 is not an negative and add 10. After that I would put the negative back. So the answer would be -58. :P
Answer:
We often use everyday definitions of the word "energy," but which statement
best describes what energy is in science?
A. the ability to carry things a long distance
B. the result of eating a lot of carbohydrates
C. the amount of time something can keep moving without rest
D. the ability to do work or cause change
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is length*width.
The length of this 3x and the width is 2x-3. This means that, to find the area, you need to multiply 3x and 2x-3.
Start by writing out this equation:
A=l*w
Then, plug in your given values:
A= 3x*2x-3 (you can also write it as A= 3*x*2*x-3)
Then, following the order of operations, you start by multiplying. This makes your equation become A = 6x^2 -3. (^2 means squared). It turns into this because 3 * 2 is 6 and x * x is x^2 and you still haven’t used the 3 yet.
After this, there is nothing more that you can do to simplify the equation. Therefore, the area is 6x^2 - 3.
I hope this helped!
