So you need to come up with a perfect square that works for the x coefficients.
like.. (2x + 2)^2
(2x+2)(2x+2) = 4x^2 + 8x + 4
Compare this to the equation given. Our perfect square has +4 instead of +23. The difference is: 23 - 4 = 19
I'm going to assume the given equation equals zero..
So, If we add subtract 19 from both sides of the equation we get the perfect square.
4x^2 + 8x + 23 - 19 = 0 - 19
4x^2 + 8x + 4 = - 19
complete the square and move 19 over..
(2x+2)^2 + 19 = 0
factor the 2 out becomes 2^2 = 4
ANSWER: 4(x+1)^2 + 19 = 0
for a short cut, the standard equation
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 becomes a(x - h)^2 + k = 0
Where "a, b, c" are the same and ..
h = -b/(2a)
k = c - b^2/(4a)
Vertex = (h, k)
this will be a minimum point when "a" is positive upward facing parabola and a maximum point when "a" is negative downward facing parabola.
65+50x = 55x + 20
-50x -50
65=5x+20
- 20 - 20
55=5x
55/5= 5x/5
11=x
The solution represents that it 11 months will make both gyms the exact same price.
The simplified form is 6x-6
Answer:
Subtraction property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
The subtraction property of equality refers to balancing an equation by using the same mathematical operation on both sides.
A rhombus is related to a “Parallelogram”
Why? - because it fulfills the requirements of a parallelogram: a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. It goes above and beyond that to also have four equal-length sides, but it is still a type of parallelogram.
hope this helped <3
