Answer:
m = - 8 ± 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
m² + 16m - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )
m² + 16m = 8
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the m- term )² to both sides
m² + 2(8)m + 64 = 8 + 64
(m + 8)² = 72 ( take the square root of both sides )
m + 8 = ±
= ±
= ± 6
Subtract 8 from both sides
m = - 8 ± 6
13. Pick a point and see which formula works.
Ay = -4, A'y = 7. Only the formula of selection D makes that translation.
14. Use the compound interest formula A = P*(1 +r/n)^(nt).
..1500*1.015^80 = 4935.99, matching selection C
15. The lid has a perimeter of 90", so the area of the sides is
.. 90" * 24" = 2160 in^2
The area of the lid is
.. 30" * 15" = 450 in^2
The gray area is (2160 -450) in^2 = 1710 in^2 larger, corresponding to selection C.
16. The only formula that maps (7, -1) to (21, -3) is that of selection D.

The middle two problems are the only ones that require you to have prior knowledge. The others could be answered simply by seeing if the answers work.
Answer:
-0.9090... can be written as
.
Explanation:
Any <em>repeating </em>decimal can be written as a fraction by dividing the section of the pattern to be repeated <em>by </em>9's.
We can start by listing out
0.909090... = 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...
Now. we let this series be equal to x, that is
= 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...
Now, we'll multiply both sides by 100
.
= 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + ...
Then, subtract the 1st equation from the second like so:
= 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...
= - 9/10 - 0/100 - 9/1000 - 0/10000 - 9/100000 - 0/1000000 - ...
And we end up with this:

Finally, we divide both sides by 99 in order to isolate x and get the fraction we're looking for.

Which can be reduced and simplified to

Hope this helps!
