Answer:

f(x) = (x+10)^2 - 86

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 20x - 86
f(x) = x^2 + 20x + 100 - 86 (because (20/2)^2 = 100)
f(x) = (x+10)^2 - 86

Completing the square means you do (b/2)^2 where b is: a^2x + bx + c.

David & Brad are competing in a 20-mile bicycle race. David rides 6.2 miles in 1/4 hour. Brad rides 11.9 miles in 1/2 hour.

David will finish first, because if you divide Brad's miles by 2 to his miles in a 1/4 of an hour are 5.95 miles. This means David went 6.2 miles in the same time that Brad went 5.95. Therefore, David will finish first.
