Answer:

Hey there!

We can write the proportion:

$88/4840 = x/1155$

101640=4840x

x=21

The car would need 21 gallons of gas to travel 1155 miles.

Let me know if this helps :)

Answer:

21 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

4,840 miles = 88 gallons

=> 1155 miles = x gallons

=> Cross-multiply

=> 4840 * x = 1155 * 88

=> 4840x = 101640

=> 4840x/4840 = 101640/4840

=> x = 21

The car can travel 1,155 miles using 21 gallons.

Complete the square for the expression, then factor the trinomial.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Completing the square we get: $(x-2)^2-(2)^2$

and factoring the term we get: $x(x-4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to complete the square for the expression $x^2-4x$

For completing the square the expression would be of form $a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2$

For given expression we have to add (2)^2 and subtract to make it complete the square.

$x^2-2(x)(2)+(2)^2-(2)^2\\(x-2)^2-(2)^2$

Now, we have to factor the polynomial using formula $(a)^2-(b)^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

So, $(x-2)^2-(2)^2\\=(x-2-2)(x-2+2)\\=(x-4)(x-0)\\=x(x-4)$

Completing the square we get: $(x-2)^2-(2)^2$

and factoring the term we get: $x(x-4)$

Victor is ordering pizzas for a party. He would like to have 1/4 of a pizza for each guest. He can only order whole pizzas, not

sertanlavr [38]

7 pizzas, because you would divide 27 by 4 and get 6.75 and then round it up to 7.

Hope this helped :)
