Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago

4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, take half of the second coefficient, square it, then add the result to both sides.

(-8/2)² = (-4)² = 16

x² − 8x + 16 = 9 + 16

Solving:

(x − 4)² = 25

x − 4 = ±5

x = 4 ± 5

x = -1 or 9

At a math competition 2 students can answer 40 questions in 1 hour. At the same rate, how many questions could 5 students answer

const2013 [10]

Answer:

25 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

At a math competition 2 students can answer 40 questions in 1 hour.

Therefore, 1 student can answer in 1 hour = $\frac{40}{2}$

= 20 questions

5 students can answer in 1 hour = 20 × 5 = 100 questions

60 minutes = 1 hour

15 minutes = $\frac{15}{60}$ = 0.25 hours

5 students can answer in 0.25 hours = 100 × 0.25

= 25 questions

5 students could answer 25 questions in 15 minutes.
