Ax^2+bx+c=d
to comlete teh square
minus c to both sides
make sure a=1, if not, divide both sides by a
take 1/2 of b, then square that and add that to both sides

so
x^2+10x=26
c is already over
a=1
b=10
10/2=5
5^2=25
add 25 both sides
x^2+10x+25=26+25
factor
(x+5)^2=51
sqrt both sides
x+5=+/-√51
 minus 5
x=-5+/-√51

x=-5+√51 or -5-√51

                        x² + 10x = 26
                x² + 10x + 25 = 26 + 25
          x² + 5x + 5x + 25 = 51
x(x) + x(5) + 5(x) + 5(5) = 51
         x(x + 5) + 5(x + 5) = 51
                 (x + 5)(x + 5) = 51
                          (x + 5)² = 51
                             x + 5 = ±√(51)
                                 - 5      - 5
                                   x = -5 ± √(51)
                                   x = -5 + √(51)    or    x = -5 - √(51)

The box and whiskers plot represents the results of the same math test being given to two different classes. According to the bo
densk [106]

Answer: Answer A: Both classes have a range of 45

Step-by-step explanation:

above the two graphs we can see a number line ranging from 50-100

bellow that, we can see 2 box and whisker plots, one for second period and one for fourth period. the larger rectangular boxes show all the number results, the line in between them states the average result. Both lines have starting points at 55 and ending points at 100.

100-55=45   45 being the range. Since 2nd and 4th both share the same range answer A could possibly be correct

B is wrong because 2nd period has a median of 90

C is wrong because no periods have a median of 100

D is wrong because most of the students scored an 85+

conclusion: answer A is correct

Camille invested money into an account that earned annual simple interest with a rate of 6.5%. She made no additional deposits o
vichka [17]

Answer:

$30341.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it says simple interest, use the formula I = Prt.

(I is interest, r is the % rate as a decimal, t is the time)

So, you have to solve the equation,

1755 = P (0.065)(9)

Since 0.065 x 9 = 0.585, the equation can be simplified to

1755 = 0.585P

Then, to get P, you divide both sides by 0.585

P = 1755/0.585 = $30341.88
