X^2+8x-6=0
(x+8/2)^2-(8/2)^2-6=0
(x+4)^2-16-6=0
(x+4)^2-22=0

x+4= ± square root 22

x=-4 + square root 22 or x=-4 - square root 22
=0.6904 =-8.6904

STEP 1- since 6 doesn't contain the variable to solve for move it to the right side of the equation by subtracting 6 from both sides
X^2-8X=-6
STEP 2- create a trinomial square on the left side of the equation find the value that is equal to the square of half of b the coefficient of x 
(b/2)^2 =(-4)^2
STEP 3- add the term to each side of the equation
x^2-8x+(-4)^2=-6=(-4) 
STEP 4- simplify the equation
x^2-8x+16=10 
STEP 5- factor the perfect trinomial square into (x-4)^2
(x-4)^2=10
STEP 6-solve the equation for x
x=4= square root of 10

What would be the actual length, if the length of the model is 25 ft and the scale factor is less
Sidana [21]

Answer:

20ft

Explanation:

You multiply the model length by the scale factor to find the actual length. <u>If the scale factor is less than zero, then the actual size will be smaller than the model</u>. Therefore, your answer would be 20ft.

Specifically, the scale factor is .8 if the actual size is 20ft, 1 if the actual size is 25ft, and 1.2 if the actual size is 30ft.

Where is the axis on a quadrant
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

x axis and y axis divide the coordinate plane into four quadrants.

Step-by-step explanation:

If one coordinate is zero, then the point is located on the x-axis or the y-axis. If y coordinate is zero, then the point is located on the y-axis. If both coordinates are zero, then the point represents the origin.
