Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
When you're completing the square you're adding (b/2)^2 which in this case is (-5)^2 or 25. This is because when you rewrite it as a square binomial you write it in the form (x+(b/2))^2 which is going to result in x^2+b+(b/2)^2. Since you need to reach 25 you need to add 45 since the last value is at -20.
10 square units.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a + 9 = 15
a = 15 - 9
a = 6
c + 9 = 16
c = 16 - 9
c = 7
d = c + 9
= 7 + 9
= 16
e = d + 15
= 16 + 15
e = 31
P(selecting a boy) = total boy /total pupils = 16/31
We assume all employees are either full-time or part-time.
36 = 24 + 12
If the number of full-time employees is 24 or less, the number of part-time employees must be 12 or more. (Thinking, based on knowledge of sums.)
_____
You can write the inequality in two stages.
- First, write and solve an equation for the number of full-time employees in terms of the number of part-time employees.
- Then apply the given constraint on full-time employees. This gives an inequality you can solve for the number of part-time employees.
Let f and p represent the numbers of full-time and part-time employees, respectively.
... f + p = 36 . . . . . . given
... f = 36 - p . . . . . . . subtract p. This is our expression for f in terms of p.
... f ≤ 24 . . . . . . . . . given
... (36 -p) ≤ 24 . . . . substitute for f. Here's your inequality in p.
... 36 - 24 ≤ p . . . . add p-24
... p ≥ 12 . . . . . . . . the solution to the inequality
