Take half of the coefficient of x (which is 2/5) and square it:

[ (1/2)(2/5) ]^2 = (1/5)^2 = 1/25, or 0.04

Thus, to rewrite x^2 + (2/5)x to include a perfect square trinomial,

x^2 + (2/5)x  = x^2 + (2/5)x + (1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or

                 (x+1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or (x + 1/5)^2 - 1/25

Help with the linear equations
IgorC [24]

Answer:

y \: intercept =  - 1 \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept form for the equation of a line is

y = mx + c

You should note that <em>c</em> represents the y-intercept of the line (where the line touches the y-axis)

y = mx + c \\ \\ we \:were\: given \:the \:equation \:y = x - \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ therefore \: the\: value \:of \:c \:is\: - \frac{3}{2} \:or -1 \frac {1}{2}
