It would just be 20 packages of ten, 4 packages of 50, 2 of 100, 1 100 + 2 50, 1 100+ 1 50 + 5 10, and so on, you just keep adding them up different ways to make 200
Alright! so how do we complete the square? you're first step is to take the coefficient in front of your middle value, or 8x. 8 would we the coefficent. now, you divide that value by 2.
so we have :
8/ 2 = 4
so what do we do with 4? we square it.
4^2 = 16
okay. so I've made you do some stuff. what do we do now? we add AND SUBTRACT this value from our equation. since I both add and subtract, I haven't changed the value of my equation.
4x^2 + 8x + 23 +16 -16
now, we isolate the positive version of the number we solved for--or 16, and all the terms that have a varaible. by this I mean:
(4x^2 + 8x + 16) + 23 - 16
all I've done is move stuff around. no values have been changed. so what now? well, you factor that portion in the parenthesis.
if you don't know how to factor, I can go over r that seperately, but I'm gonna assume you can factor. when I factor this, I get:
4x^2 + 8x + 16 = (x+ 4)(x + 4) = (x + 4)^2
so now I have
(x+4)^2 + 23 - 16
I can now combine like terms, which include 23-16, which equals 7.
finally, I have:
(x+4)^2 + 7
so I have officially completed the square. ^^^that's your process of doing that. so how do I find the minimum value? well, run with me for a sec. if I just look at (x+4)^2, what type of values will I always get? well, anything squared is POSITIVE, so I will Never get a negative number. in fact, I only get numbers from 0 to infinity. so, if the lowest number I can get there is 0, the lowest value this polynomial can have overall is 0+ 7, which is 7. hope that helps!
Rewriting the question, the given lengths that were cut from the board were 30 3/4 inches, 12 1/4 inches, and 16 1/4 inches. To obtain the remaining length of the board, all of the measurements cut are to be added and subtracted from 72 inches. This is shown below:
30 3/4 + 12 1/4 + 16 1/4 = 237/4 = 59.25 inches.
Remaining length of board = 72 - 59.25 = 12.75 inches.
Therefore, there will be 12.75 inches remaining of the board.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume is the combination of 2 volumes
- 1. Dimensions: 0.5 m, 05 m and 1.5 - 1 = 0.5 m
- 2. Dimensions: 1 m, 0.5 m and 0.75 m
So the volume is:
- 0.5*0.5*0.5 + 1*0.5*0.75 = 0.5 m³
