Answer:
2(x + 2)² - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + 8x + 3
To obtain the required form use the method of completing the square.
The coefficient of the x² term must be 1, thus factor 2 out of 2x² + 8x
= 2(x² + 4x) + 3
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² + 4x
= 2(x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4) + 3
= 2(x + 2)² - 8 + 3
= 2(x + 2)² - 5
with p = 2 and q = - 5
Answer:
5x + 10 = 240
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
fourteen billion seven hundred ninety millio
1) subtract 2y in both sides: (7y-2y)-6=(2y-2y)+8 which is 5y-6=8
2) Add 6 to both sides: 5y(-6+6)=8+6 which is 5y=14
3) Divide 5 on both sides: 5y/5=14/5 which is y=14/5 or y=2.8 or y=2 4/5
