Answer:Although the Quadratic Formula always works as a strategy to solve quadratic equations, for many problems it is not the most efficient method. Sometimes it is faster to factor or complete the square or even just "out-think" the problem. For each equation below, choose the method you think is most efficient to solve the equation and explain your reason. Note that you do not actually need to solve the equation. a. x2+7x−8=0x
2
+7x−8=0, b. (x+2)2=49(x+2)
2
=49, c. 5x2−x−7=05x
2
−x−7=0, d. x2+4x=−1x
2
+4x=−1.
First you have to know BODMAS/BIDMAS (idk if all schools teach it like this) but this is the order in which you complete questions so it’s Brackets, Indices, Division/Multiplication, Addition/Subtraction
a) 5^2 is 5x5 which equals 25 1 to the power of anything is always 1 and 2^4 is 2x2x2x2 which is 16
So 5^2-1^5x2^4 = 25-1x16 which is then 25-16 = 9
b) 7^2+4^3 divided by 2^5 so 7^2 is 7x7 which = 49 then 4^3 means 4x4x4 = 64 and 2^5 is 2x2x2x2x2 which equals 32 so
7^2+4^3 divides by 2^5 is 49+64/32 = 49+2 which is 51
Answer:
16%
Step-by-step explanation:
50 events and C shows 8
50/8 = 16%
