So it (-6-22)+(321) ? Before I solve this problem?
Answer:
First one Equivalent but not simplified fully (Can combine the two y terms)
Second: Equivalent but not simplified fully (Can combine the two x^2 terms)
Third: Equivalent and simplified fully
Fourth: Not equivalent (y term is not correct)
Fifth: Not equivalent (x^2 term is not correct and the constant terms [ones without variables] can be combined)
Sixth: Not Equivalent (y term is not correct and the constant terms can be combined)
Step-by-step explanation:
You just need to know if two terms have the same variable they can be added or subtracted. But if it is say x and x^2 it cannot, they need to be brought to the same power as well. or if there is a term with xy, it can only be added and subtracted to other xy terms
Answer:
- C) (x − 3)2 = 25
- C) Factor out 4 from 4x2 + 40x.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation will "complete the square." That square is 9, so the result on the right is 16+9 = 25. Only selection C matches.
___
2. To complete the square, you want to be able to put the quadratic into the form a(x -h)^2 = -k. For the purpose, it is most convenient to first factor "a" from the given quadratic. Then you can determine "-h" to be half the x-coefficient inside the parentheses.
Here, that looks like ...
4(x² +10x) = 80 . . . . . . . . . . step 1: factor out 4
4(x² +10x +25) = 180 . . . . . add 25 inside parentheses and the same number (4·25) on the right side of the equation
4(x +5)² = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square
