Answer: B. 36

The complete square is (x+6)^2. It's missing the third term, which is 36 because 6 x 6 is 36.

ANSWER

B. 36

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic expression is:

{x}^{2}  + 12x = 16

To complete the square we add the square of half the coefficient of x.

The coefficient of x is 12.

Half of it is 6.

The square of 6 is 36.

Therefore we add 36 to both sides of the equation to complete the square.

The correct answer is B.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

w=2r

r= w/2

r- w/2 = 0

w -2r= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the number of weeks and r be the number of recipes learnt . So he will learn 2 recipes each week .Equating gives

w=2r

when w= 1

w= 2(1) = 2

For 1st week 2 recipes are learned

when w= 2

w= 2( 2) = 4

For 2nd week 4 recipes are learned.

or

when r= 2

r= w/2

r =2/2  = 1  one  recipe is learned in half of the week  

r- w/2 = 0

or

w -2r= 0
