−

2

Explanation:

Given:

x

2

+

10

x

+

16

=

0

To complete the square put the two

x

terms on the left and the constant on the right of the equation:

x

2

+

10

x

=

−

16

Complete the square by multiplying the

x

-term by

1

2

:

1

2

⋅

10

=

5

and adding the square of this number to the right side of the equation:

2

=

.

The

+

25

was not in the original equation. If we add

+

25

to one side of the equation, we must add the same amount to the other side of the equation to keep it balanced.

(

x

+

)

=

To solve, square root both sides of the equation:

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Stratified Random sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

When a random observations are selected from a number of individual groups in a particular population, the type of sampling technique is called Stratified Random sampling. Stratified Random sampling begins with the partitioning or splitting or a population into subgroups. A number of random selection are then made from each of the subgroups to form a collection of larger samples. This is different from the simple random sampling technique which makes random selection directly from a larger sample or population without prior partitioning of the population. The different grades of students represents the individual stratum from which random selections are made.

Answer this one for me thanks ppppp
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

16.6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to help us solve this problem: a^2+b^2=c^2 where c is the longest side of a right triangle (the hypotenuse) and a and b are the other two sides

It's safe to assume that x is the longest side in this triangle, making it the c value. Plug 14 and 9 into the equation as a and b and solve for x:

14^2+9^2=x^2\\196+81=x^2\\277=x^2\\x=16.6

Therefore, the value of x is 16.6 units when rounded to the nearest tenth.

I hope this helps!
