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.

Answer:

There are 25 students in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the number of students in the class, you can add the number of data points together. Because the name of each person will only be recorded once and only to one data value, that means by adding the total number of data points collected, you can find out the number of students in the sixth-grade class. There are three data points on 3, two data points on 4, five data points on 5, eight data points on 6, two data points on 7, one data point on 8, and four data points on 9, this means the total number of students will be 3 + 2 + 5 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 25 students, so this will be your answer.
