Take half of the coefficient of x: It is 3, and half that is 3/2.
Then <span>x^2+3x=6 becomes:
</span><span> x^2+3x + (3/2)^2 =6 + (3/2)^2, and
(x+3/2)^2 = 6 + 9/4
You were not asked to solve the equation, but why not do it for the practice?
</span>Solve (x+3/2)^2 = 6 + 9/4 for x. There will be 2 values.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x:

We are given an angle of elevation of 2 degrees and distance in the x axis of 5280 feet and we are asked in the problem to determine the height of the building. We use the tangent function to determine the height: that is tan 2 = h / 5280; h is equal then to 184 ft.
After one week, Jacob has earned $80 from babysitting, so his change is an increase of $80. The next week, he spends $85, so he experiences a decrease of $85. Over the two weeks, his overall change is $80-$85=-$5, or a decrease of $5.
