Rodrigo needs to solve the equation x2 – 4x – 18 = 0 by completing the square. Which pair of steps is the most efficient way to

begin?
A. x2 – 4x = 18
x2 – 4x + 2 = 18 + 2

B.x2 – 4x = 18
x2 – 4x + 4 = 18 + 4

C.x2 – 4x = 18
x2 – 4x + 81 = 18 + 81


D.x2 – 4x = 18
x2 – 4x + 16 = 18 + 16

Answer:

B.x2-4x=18

x2-4x+4=18+4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you complete the square your quadratic equation must be written in the standard form which is ax^2+bx+c.

First you are going to want to move your c term to the right (in this case move -18 to the right by adding 18 to both sides). This will get you x^2-4x=18. Now you are going to need to complete the square. To complete the square you divide the number in the bx term (in this case -4) by 2 and then square it. (-2^2=4 since a negative times a negative equals a positive). Now that you have 4 you are going to add it to both sides to get x2-4x+4=18+4.

Answer:

A= 30

Step-by-step explanation:

This requires several steps.

First, you need to find the 2 other missing angles.

One can be found easily by substracting 130 from 180

so 180-130 = 50

The other angle is the same as 8x+4

Now set up your equation

180=3x-6 + 8x+4 +50

180 = 3x + 8x -6 + 4 +50

180+6-4-50 = 11x

132 = 11x

132/11 = x

12 = x

Now plug in 12 for x in your angle A

A=3x-6

A=3 * 12 - 6

A=36 - 6

A= 30

Which pair of polygons is similar
DedPeter [7]
I didn’t see an image or anything but I looked it up and it said regular polygons, since they have the sides all the same length they must always be in the same proportions, and their interior angles are always the same.

Using linear function concepts, it is found that:

  • a) It costs $0.1 for each kilowatt hour of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh.
  • b) f(90) = 46.6, which is the cost of 340 kWh of consumption in a month.

------------------------------

A <em>linear function </em>has the format given by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

The equation for the cost of h kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh is of:

C = f(h) = 37.6 + 0.1h

Item a:

  • The slope is of m = 0.1, which means that it costs $0.1 for each kilowatt hour of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh.

Item b:

f(90) = 37.6 + 0.1(90) = 37.6 + 9 = 46.6

250 + 90 = 340.

f(90) = 46.6, which is the cost of 340 kWh of consumption in a month.

both (0,350) and (250,700) fall in the shaded are

 and check:

350 *3 = 1050, which is more than 1000 and more than double the amount of hotdogs ( 0)


700 *3 = 2100, so over 1000 and more than double the amount of hotdogs(250*2=500)

 so those 2 are correct
