<span>If you're trying to rewrite 1/2 and 1/4 in terms of the same common denominator, all you have to do is multiply the top and bottom of 1/2 by 4 (which is the denominator of 1/4) and the top and bottom of 1/4 by 2 (which is the denominator of 1/2) to find that 1/2 = (1 x 4) / (2 x 4) = 4/8 and 1/6 = (1 x 2) / (4 x 2) = 2/8.</span>

If you need to work with 1/2 and 1/4 both with the same denominator,
then the easiest one to use is '4'.  The 1/2 is the same thing as  2/4.

What must be added to both sides in 4x² + 24x + 8 = 32 in order to complete the square?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a quadratic equation by using the completing the square method, the coefficient of the square term i.e x² must be one (1).

Therefore, we would have to first make the coefficient of x² to be equal to 1.

4x² + 24x + 8 = 32

We would simplify the equation;

4x² + 24x = 32 - 8

4x² + 24x = 24

Divide all through by 4;

x² + 8x = 24

The value to be added = (8/2)² = 4² = 16

x² + 8x + 16 = 8 + 16

x² + 4x + 4x + 16 = 24

x(x + 4) + 4(x + 4) = 24

(x + 4)² = 24

Taking the square root of both sides;

x + 4 = ± 4.9

x = -4 ± 4.9

x = -4 + 4.9 = 0.9

or

x = -4 - 4.9 = - 8.9

<em>Therefore, 16 must be added to solve the quadratic equation by completing the square method. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

With the rule of 72, you would divide 72 by the periodic interest rate to get the number of years for the principal to double
