Put it all into the same measurement unit -
Kim: 48,600 seconds. (13.5*60=810, 810*60=48600)
Javis: 50,700 seconds. (845*60=50,700)
Monica: 49,500 seconds.
Kim finished the book first.
Answer:
(x +4)^2 -45
Step-by-step explanation:
The square of a binomial has the form ...
(x +a)^2 = x^2 +2ax +a^2
That is, the constant term (a^2) is the square of half the coefficient of the linear term: (2a/2)^2 = a^2.
To "complete the square", you add 0 in the form of the desired constant added to its opposite. Here, we want the constant for the square to be (8/2)^2 = 16. So, we can add 0 = 16 -16 to the expression:
x^2 +8x +16 -29 -16
(x^2 +8x +16) -45 . . . . group the terms that make the square
(x +4)^2 -45 . . . . rewritten after completing the square
It takes Omar 30 seconds to eat one considering he ate 8 in 4 minutes ...
If we really wanted to we could turn this into the fraction 8/4
8 being the amount of carrot sticks he ate and 4 being the time it took
now all u have to do is simplify that turns into 2/1 and since the 1 is one minute and her can eat 2 in one minute we can safely say he eats 1 carrot stick every 30 seconds
:) hope this helps!!
