Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply each term by -2 to get the next term.

To find this for this sequence, divide the term on the right by the term on the left.

8 / -4 = -2              or          -4 * -2 = 8

-16 / 8 = -2             or         8 * -2 = -16

32 / -16 = -2           or         -16 * -2 = 32

-64 / 32 = -2           or         32 * -2 = -64

Novosadov [1.4K]
It will take her 8 weeks to save up enough money for the bike.

To get the answer first you have to subtract 125 from 245 to see how much money she still has to save then divide the answer which is 120 by 15 and you get 8. Hope this helps!!

Complete the square to write the quadratic expression in vertex form.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1. (x - 3)² = 8

2. (x + 2)² = 3

3. (x + 6)² = $ \frac{101}{2} $

4. (x + 3)² = 27

5. (x + 4)² = 13

6.  $ \bigg( x - \frac{15}{9} \bigg) ^2 = \frac{261}{81} = \frac{29}{9} $

Step-by-step explanation:

Completion of Square: $ (x - a) ^2 = x^2 - 2ax + a^2 $

In the following problems the terms in the RHS of the above equation may be missing. We balance the equation. Simplify it and re write it in terms of LHS.

1. x² - 6x + 1 = 0

Taking the constant term to the other side, we get:

x² - 6x = - 1

⇒ x² - 2(3)x = -1

⇒ x² -2(3)x + 9 = - 1 + 9  [Adding 9 to both the sides]

⇒ x² -2(3)x + 3² = 8

⇒ (x - 3)² = 8 is the answer.

2. 3x² + 12x + 3 = 0

Note that the co-effecient of x² is not 1. We make it 1, by dividing the whole equation by 3. And then proceed like the previous problem.

3x² + 12x = -3

Dividing by 3 through out, x² + 4x = - 1

⇒ x² + 2(2) + 4 = -1 + 4

⇒ x² +2(2) + 2² = 3

⇒ (x + 2)² = 3 is the answer.

3. 2x² + 24x = 29

x² + 12x = $ \frac{29}{2} $

⇒ x² + 2(6)x + 36 = $ \frac{29}{2} $ + 36

⇒ x² + 2(6)x + 6² = $ \frac{29 + 72}{2} $

⇒ (x + 6)² = $ \frac{101}{2} $ is the answer.

4. x² + 6x - 18 = 0

x² + 6x = 18

⇒ x² + 2(3)x = 18

⇒ x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 18 + 9

⇒ x² + 2(3)x + 3² = 27

⇒ (x + 3)² = 27 is the answer.

5. x² + 8x + 3 = 0

x² + 8x = -3

⇒ x² + 2(4)x = -3

⇒ x² + 2(4)x + 16 = - 3 + 16

⇒ x² + 2(4)x + 16 = 13

⇒ (x + 4)² = 13 is the answer.

6. 9x² - 30x + 6 = 0

9x² - 30x = - 6

⇒ x² $ - \frac{30}{9} $ x = - 6

$ \implies x^2 -2 \bigg( \frac{15}{9} \bigg )x + \frac{225}{81} = - 6 + \frac{225}{81} $

$ \implies x^2 - 2\bigg( \frac{15}{9} \bigg ) x + \bigg ( \frac{15}{9} \bigg ) ^2 = \frac{261}{81} $

$ \bigg( x - \frac{15}{9} \bigg) ^2 = \frac{261}{81} = \frac{29}{9} $ is the answer.
