The first few steps in deriving the quadratic formula are shown. Which best explains why is not added to the left side of the eq

uation in the last step shown in the table? The term is added to the right side of the equation, so it needs to be subtracted from the left side of the equation to balance the sides of the equation. The distributive property needs to be applied to determine the value to add to the left side of the equation to balance the sides of the equation. The term needs to be converted so it has a common denominator before adding it to the left side of the equation to balance the equation. The square root of the term needs to be found before adding the term to the left side of the equation to balance the sides of the equation.

The term b^2 / 4a^2 is not added to the left side of the equation, because the term that was added to the right was not either b^2 / 4 a^2.

As you can see the ther b^2 / 4a^2 that appears in the last step of the table is inside a parenthesis, which is preceded by factor a.


Then, you need to apply the distributive property to know the term that you are really adding to the right side,  i.e. you need to mulitply b^2 / 4a^2 * a which is b^2 / 4a.


That means that you are really adding b^2 / 4a to the right, so that is the same that you have to add to the left, which is what the last step of the table shows.


That situation is reflected by the statement "<span>The distributive property needs to be applied to determine the value to add to the left side of the equation to balance the sides of the equation".</span>  That is the answer.

Rills, gullies, streams, rivers and tributaries are all caused by
Gnom [1K]
<span>Rills, gullies, streams, rivers and tributaries are all caused by water erosion. Water erosion is the natural act by which water flow (or wind flow) slowly removes soil, rock, or any material found in the earth's crust. The removed materials are transported to another location, leaving behind changes in the crust.</span>

The diagram shows the electric field lines surrounding two positive point charges. If the charge on the right were replaced with
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Explanation:

The wording on some of these choices is very strange; I'm not sure exactly what they are stating. First of all, A. is definitely a choice because if both the charges were opposite, they would be attracted to one another as opposed to be repelled away from one another, as they are when they are both positive. What happens is that the charges go OUT from the positive charge and INTO the negative; so as far as the field lines around both charges would change direction...no; only the direction of the field lines would change on the positive charge (which is the one on the left). In that space where D is filled in by the field lines going OUT of the positive charge and INTO the negative one, the lines there are naturally closer together, and that is the point where the charge is the greatest. So if that is what is meant by the field lines getting closer together, then yes, they do. As far as choice D. again the field lines on the negative charge don't change, only the ones on the positive charge change.

What is the process by which water dissolves certain minerals in the soil and carries them away?
Mademuasel [1]
The correct answer would be LEACHING. When at first thought, it would seem that it is erosion. Erosion not only eliminates the soil minerals, it also washes everything else and that includes the soil. <span>In a different manner, Leaching can happen when certain minute particles of the minerals are melted and mixes with water. All that is left in the soil will be the bigger particles that are not soluble by water. In this manner, only a soil that cannot properly nourish remains as it is stripped off of minerals.</span>
