Square of a binomial x^2+2x+1

garik1379 [7]

To put an equation into (x+c)^2, we need to see if the trinomial is a perfect square.
General form of a trinomial: ax^2+bx+c
If c is a perfect square, for example (1)^2=1, 2^2=4, that's a good indicator that it's a perfect square trinomial.
Here, it is, because 1 is a perfect square.
To ensure that it's a perfect square trinomial, let's look at b, which in this case is 2.
It has to be double what c is.
2 is the double of 1, therefore this is a perfect square trinomial.
Knowing this, we can easily put it into the form (x+c)^2.
And the answer is: (x+1)^2.
To do it the long way:
x^2+2x+1
Find 2 numbers that add to 2 and multiply to 1.
They are both 1.
x^2+x+x+1
x(x+1)+1(x+1)
Gather like terms
(x+1)(x+1)
or (x+1)^2.

In a set of 3 numbers the first is a positive integer, the second is 3 more than the first and the 3rd is a square of the second

Molodets [167]

Given:

In a set of 3 numbers the first is a positive integer, the second is 3 more than the first and the 3rd is a square of the second.

To find:

The equation for the given situation if the sum of the numbers is 77.

Solution:

a. Let the first number in the set is x.

The second is 3 more than the first. So, the second number is $(x+3)$ .

The 3rd number is a square of the second. So, the third number is $(x+3)^2$ .

Therefore, the first, second and third numbers are $x,(x+3),(x+3)^2$ respectively.

b. The sum of the numbers is 77.

First number + Second number + Third number = 77

c. So, the equation in terms of x is:

$x+(x+3)+(x+3)^2=77$

Therefore, the required equation is $x+(x+3)+(x+3)^2=77$ .

d. On simplification, we get

$x+x+3+x^2+6x+9=77$ $[\because (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]$

$x^2+(6x+x+x)+(3+9)=77$

$x^2+8x+12=77$

Subtract 77 from both sides.

$x^2+8x+12-77=77-77$

$x^2+8x-65=0$

Therefore, the simplified form of the required equation is $x^2+8x-65=0$ .

A rectangular prism has a height of 12 centimeters and a square base with sides measuring 5 centimeters. A pyramid with the same

Ahat [919]

A rectangular prism is a cuboid so volume of cuboid is base area x height which is 5x5x12=300
volume of pyramid is 1/3 x base area x height = 5x5x6x1/3=50 thus volume outside pyramid and inside cuboid is 300-50=250
