<span>x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 105.25

    "Completing the square" is one of many different techniques for solving a quadratic equation. What you do is add a constant to both sides of the equation such that the lefthand side can be factored into the form a(x+d)^2. For instance, squaring (X+D) = X^2 + 2DX + D^2. Notice the 2DX term. That is the same term as the 15x term in the problem. So 2D = 15, D = 7.5. And D^2 = 7.5^2 = 56.25.
So we have
 x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 49 + 56.25
 Which is
 x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 105.25
  Which is the answer desired.

   Now the rest of this is going beyond the answer. Namely, it's answering the question "Why does complementing the square help?" Well, we know that the left hand side of the equation can now be written as
 (x+7.5)^2 = 105.25

   Now take the square root of each side
 (x+7.5) = sqrt(105.25)

   And let's use both the positive and negative square roots.
So x+7.5 = 10.25914226
 and
 x+7.5 = -10.25914226

   And let's find X.
 x+7.5 = 10.25914226
 x = 2.759142264

   x+7.5 = -10.25914226
 x = -17.75914226

   So the roots for x^2 + 15x - 49 is 2.759142264, and -17.75914226</span>

Lelu [443]

ANSWER      

Find out which function accurately describes the population of the birds in the enclosure, f(x), after x years.

To proof

As given

A bird enclosure at a zoo was initially housed with 350 birds.

The total population of birds in the enclosure is expected to increase every year by 5%.

Now the increase in the population of the bird is shown by

f(x) = a ( 1 + \frac{r}{100})^{t}

where a = initial value

r =rate percent

t = time

put the value in the above equation

initial population = 350 bird

rate = 5 %

time = x

than

f (x) = 350 ( 1 + 0.05)^{x}

this equation represented the population of the birds in the enclosure after x years .

Hence proved
