we'll start off by grouping some
so we have a missing guy at the end in order to get the a perfect square trinomial from that group, hmmm, what is it anyway?
well, let's recall that a perfect square trinomial is
so we know that the middle term in the trinomial, is really 2 times the other two without the exponent, well, in our case, the middle term is just "x", well is really -x, but we'll add the minus later, we only use the positive coefficient and variable, so we'll use "x" to find the last term.
so, there's our fellow, however, let's recall that all we're doing is borrowing from our very good friend Mr Zero, 0, so if we add (1/2)², we also have to subtract (1/2)²
![\bf \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)=6\implies \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2=6 \\\\\\ \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=6+\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=\cfrac{25}{4}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\cfrac{25}{4}} \\\\\\ x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{1}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies \boxed{x=3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cleft%28%20x%5E2%20-x%20%2B%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2-%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%20%5Cright%29%3D6%5Cimplies%20%5Cleft%28%20x%5E2%20-x%20%2B%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%20%5Cright%29-%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E2%3D6%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%28x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%3D6%2B%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cleft%28x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%3D%5Ccfrac%7B25%7D%7B4%7D%5Cimplies%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Ccfrac%7B25%7D%7B4%7D%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B%5Csqrt%7B25%7D%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B4%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20x-%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%2B%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B6%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cboxed%7Bx%3D3%7D)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: 60 ÷ 0.25 = 240
240 is your selling price
Answer: 
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
For this problem, you're finding volume. The expression for volume is l•w•h (length times width times height).
Answer:
1. 600 watts
2. 35640 J
3. 55%
4. 20 J
5. The cost of running the fire is 8p.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Energy = 36 000 J , t = 1 minute = 60 seconds
Power = 
= 
= 600 watts
2. Power = 
⇒ work done = Power × time
= 99 × 360
= 35640 J
3. Efficiency = (Output / Input) × 100
= 
× 100
= 55%
4. Work done = Force × distance
= 5 × 4
= 20 J
5. Given that 1 KWh cost 2p, Power = 4 KW and time = 4 hours.
Power =
Energy = Power × time
= 4 × 4
= 16 KWh
The cost of running the fire = 
= 8p
