Find c to complete the perfect trinomial x2 + 4x + c

Mathematics
1 answer:
sladkih [1.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that is supposed to be x squared. A perfect trinomial is the product of a perfect square, (x times a number) squared. With these trinomials, you can look at them as: ax squared times bx + c. When a is 1, the fastest way to get c to make a perfect square is to divide b by 2. In this case, it's 4/2 = 2. The last step is to square that number. 2 squared = 4.

Prove that a parallelogram is a square iff its diagonals are both congruent and perpendicular
Juliette [100K]
Consider the parallelogram shown below.
The lengths of the sides are a and b.
The lengths of the diagonals are 2x and 2y.

Because the diagonals are both congruent and perpendicular, therefore there are two right triangles as shown.
Note that x = y.
Because x = y, each right triangle is isosceles and has the angles 90°, 45° and 45°.

From the Pythagorean theorem,
For one right triangle,
a² = x² + y² = x² + x² = 2x².
For the other right triangle,
b² = y² + x² = x² + x² = 2x²

Therefore
a² = b²
a = b

It follows that all sides of the parallelogram are equal and each angle is
45+45 = 90°

Therefore the parallelogram is a square.

Which statement is true about the product (9x2 – 4y2)(3x – 2y)?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

It's the last choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  (3x - 2y)(3x -2y)

= 9x^2 - 12xy + 4y^2

The product is  (9x^2 - 4y^2) (9x^2 - 12xy + 4y^2)

which is neither a  difference of 2 squares  or perfect square trinomial.

2.  (3x - 2y)(3x + 2y)

= 9x^2 - 6xy + 6xy - 4y^2

= 9x^2 - 4y^2

and (9x^2 - 4y^2(9x^2 - 4y^2) is a perfect square.

Model the following problem with a quadratic equation. Then solve. Find the length of a side of a square with an area of 75 ft2.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

x = 8.6603 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the length of a side of the square, the area of the square will be x^2.

So, if the area of the square is 75 ft2, we can formulate the quadratic equation:

x^2 = 75

Now, solving the equation, we just need to make the square root of 75:

x = sqrt(75) = ±8.6603

x1 = 8.6603

x2 = -8.6603

Now, as x represents the length of a side of the square, and measurements can't be negative, we take only the positive value, so:

x = 8.6603 m

Are the equations 4-5x=24 and 5x=20 equivalent?​
mina [271]

Answer:

not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for x

4-5x=24

-5x=20

x = - 4

5x=20

x = 4

no they are not equivalent
