By adding/ subtraction systems
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's an example to illustrate the method:
f(x) = 3x^2 - 6x + 10
First divide the first 2 terms by the coefficient of x^2 , which is 3:
= 3(x^2 - 2x) + 10
Now divide the -2 ( in -2x) by 2 and write the x^2 - 2x in the form
(x - b/2)^2 - b/2)^2 (where b = 2) , which will be equal to x^2 - 2x in a different form.
= 3[ (x - 1)^2 - 1^2 ] + 10 (Note: we have to subtract the 1^2 because (x - 1)^2 = x^2 - 2x + 1^2 and we have to make it equal to x^2 - 2x)
= 3 [(x - 1)^2 -1 ] + 10
= 3(x - 1)^2 - 3 + 10
= <u>3(x - 1)^2 + 7 </u><------- Vertex form.
In general form the vertex form of:
ax^2 + bx + c = a [(x - b/2a)^2 - (b/2a)^2] + c .
This is not easy to commit to memory so I suggest the best way to do these conversions is to remember the general method.
15, median is the number in the middle, (i.e. median of 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, is 8.)
Answer:
42.5 Cubic Yards
Step-by-step explanation:
To find volume of a rectangle you do length*width*height to get the volume, so 17*15*0.5(because 6 inches is half of a foot) you get 127.5, but they're asking for it in yards not feet so you need to divide 127.5 by 3 and that will give you 42.5.
The black line is shorter than the gray. Let's simplify the rules. (B=Black, W=White, G=Grey
B is less than W which is less than G
That means G is greater than W. B is less than W, which is less than G. Therefore, the black line is not only shorter than the Gray one, but also the shortest out of the three.
I hope this Helps!
