Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

x² - 6x + 4 = 0 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² - 6x = - 4

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = - 4 + 9

(x - 3)² = 5 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 3 = ± \sqrt{5} ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 3 ± \sqrt{5} ← exact solutions

(b)

4x² + 16x + 9 = 0

To complete the square

The coefficient of the x² term must be 1

Factor out 4 from 4x² + 16x

4(x² + 4x) + 9 = 0

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 4x

4(x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4 ) + 9 = 0

4(x + 2)² - 16 + 9 = 0

4(x + 2)² - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

4(x + 2)² = 7 ( divide both sides by 4 )

(x + 2)² = \frac{7}{4} ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt{\frac{7}{4} } = ± \frac{\sqrt{7} }{2} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = - 2 ± \frac{\sqrt{7} }{2} ← exact solutions

A train is pulling 23 red cars and 36 blue cars. Each car has 32 boxes of freight. Which is the best estimate for the number of
Len [333]

So the train is pulling about 50 cars in total, and there's about 30 boxes of freight in each car.


30 x 50 = 1500


The best estimate would be near 1500 boxes of freight through the whole train.
