Answer:

a. x² + 6x + 9 = -22 + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

they moved the 22 to the right by subtracting it. this leaves a binomial on the left side, which if what you want to solve it.

then they completed the square by dividing b (6) by 2 = 3. then squaring 3 to get 9.

if you added 9 to the left, then you have to add 9 to the right, therefore resulting in -22 + 9.

How do i find the finite approximation to estimate the area using the lower sum of 4 rectangles for f(x)= 4-x^2 between x=-2 and
nikitadnepr [17]
The primary rectangle would be from - 2 to - 1. 
f(- 2) = 0 
f(- 1) = 2 
this rectangle has 0 stature, subsequently it has no territory. A = length * width = 0. 


second rectangle from - 1 to 0 
f(- 1) = 2 
f(0) = 4 
this rectangle has stature of 2 (the base). range = stature * width = 2 * 1 = 2

 third rectangle from 0 to 1 is the same 
A3 = 2 
fourth rectangle from 1 to 2 is the same as the first: 
A4 = 0 * 1 = 0 
Add up to range = A1 + A2 + A3 + A4 = 4

Y=2x+8 and y= -2/3x. Identify the value of x that simultaneously satisfies both equations.
son4ous [18]
Let's solve this by subst. (-2/3)x for y in y=2x+8.

Then 2x+8 = (-2/3)x.  (For clarity you must use those parentheses.)

The LCD is 3.  Mult. both sides by 3, obtaining

6x+24 = -2x.  Then 8x = -24, and x = -3.  Now that you have a value for x, subst. this value (-3) into either of the given equations to determine y.

Then write your solution in the form (-3,  ??  ).
