COMPLETING THE SQUARE (PROCESS):
Do a reverse factoring procedure to develop the following form of equation:
(t + a)^2 = b
where:
t = unknown variable
a = coefficient
b = coefficient
Then take square root of both sides to find value of unknown variable as follows:
t^2 + 10t = 75
(t^2 + 10t + 25) = 75 + 25
(t^2 + 5t + 5t + 25) = 100
(t + 5)(t + 5) = 100
(t + 5)^2 = 100
√(t + 5)^2 = √100
Two solutions exist:
+(t + 5) = 10
AND
-(t + 5) = 10
Thus:
t = 10 - 5 = 5
AND
t = -5 - 10 = -15
Answer:
t = 5
AND
t = -15

Answer:
A. The distance is the same
Step-by-step explanation:
This is like absolute value. No matter the side of 0 that the point is on, it is still the same distance from zero. The direction left or right is different, but it doesn't ask for that. Both 6 and -6 is 6 units away from 0.
