Find the value of C that completes the square for x^2-2x + C

Mathematics
1 answer:
solniwko [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 2x = (x - 1)^2 - 1   so:

x^2 - 2x + C = (x - 1)^2 - 1 + C

So to get a perfect square  C must be 1 ( as -1 + 1 = 0):-

(x - 1)^2 - 1 + 1 = (x - 1)^2

Checking  this:

x^2 - 2x + 1

= (x - 1)(x - 1) which is a perfect square./

A car uses 8 gallons of gasoline to travel 192 miles. How many gallons are used to go 144 miles? *
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this using the ration method.

If, 8 gallons : 192 miles

   x gallons : 144 miles

We must find the value of x, which is the number of gallons used to travel 144 miles.

Cross multiply the ratios.

192 x = 8 × 144

192 x = 1152

x = 1152 ÷ 192

x = 6

∴ It takes 6 gallons to travel 144 miles.

kifflom [539]

At first let us choose the 5 points

at x = 0, y = 0

The first point is (0, 0)

y=ax^3

We will choose a = 1/2

The points are

(-2, -4)

(-1, -1/2)

(0, 0)

(1, 1/2)

(2, 4)

y=\frac{1}{2}^{}x^3
