Answer:
x^2 -2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of a quadratic equation as
ax^2 + bx + c
x^2 -2x +
Comparing the two equations
a = 1 , b = -2, c = ?
c becomes the missing part
Divide b by 2
-2/2 = -1
square the result
-1^2
= 1 this is what to add to get a perfect square
x^2 -2x + 1
(x - 1)^2
The answer to the question
Answer: x = 3/2 y = 9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract
5
y
Replace all occurrences of x
from both sides of the equation.
Are you sure you want the length to be smaller than the width? It's not exactly the way they're defined. I'll solve it that way, but it's an odd question.
Equations
P = 2L + 2W
Area = L*W
Substitution and Solve
2L + 2W = 36
L*W = 56
Divide the first equation by 2
L + W = 36/2
L + W = 18
Solve for L
L = 18 - W
Put this result in the second equation
W(18 - W) = 56 Remove the brackets
18W - W^2 = 56 Transfer the Left Side to the Right.
0 = W^2 - 18W + 56 Factor
0 = (W - 14)(W - 4)
W - 14 = 0
W = 14 <<<<<Answer
W - 4 = 0
W = 4
Comment
Both 14 and 4 are in cm
W = 14 cm <<<< answer
L = 4 <<<<< answer
