Answer:
(x - 1)² - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 2x - 2
To complete the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 2x
x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 - 1 - 2
= (x - 1)² - 3
b. (x - 1)^2 - 3.
x^2− 2x − 2 Note that x^2 - 2x is equivalent to (x - 1)^2 - 1 so we have:
(x - 1)^2 - 1 - 2
= (x - 1)^2 - 3.
7/4
(4/7)^-1
We know a^-b = 1/a^b
1/ (4/7)^1
The correct answer would be B. Sexual reproduction does infact create more variation in plants.
