Two figures<span> that have the same shape are said to be </span>similar<span>. When two </span>figures<span> are </span>similar<span>, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We calculate as follows:

3.9 / 1.3 = 9.6 / b
b = 9.6 x 1.3 / 3.9
b = 3.2</span>

What is the intermediate step in the form (x+a)2 = b as a result of completing the square for the following
skelet666 [1.2K]

For this case we have the following expression:

x ^ 2-4x + 10 = 4x + 10

We follow the steps below:

We subtract 4x on both sides of the equation:

x ^ 2-4x + 10-4x = 4x + 10-4x\\x ^ 2-8x + 10 = 10

We subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

x ^ 2-8x + 10-10 = 10-10\\x ^ 2-8x = 0

Now, we must complete squares.

When we have an equation of the form:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0, if we want to complete squares we must subtract c on both sides of the equation obtaining:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c-c = -c\\ax ^ 2 + bx = -c

The square is completed by adding to both sides of the equation: (\frac{b}{2})^{2}

So, we have left:

ax^2+bx + (\frac {b} {2})^{2} = - c + (\frac {b} {2}) ^ {2}

In the given expression we have:

a = 1\\b = -8\\c = 0

And to complete the square we have:

(\frac {b} {2}) ^ {2} = (\frac {-8} {2}) ^ {2} = 16

Rewriting we have:

x ^ 2-8x + 16 = 16

We factor the left side of the equation, that is, we look for two numbers that when added together result in -8 and when multiplied as a result 16. We have:

-4-4 = -8\\-4 * -4 = 16

So, we have:

(x-4) (x-4) = 16\\(x-4) ^ 2 = 16

Answer:

The intermediate step is to complete squares

(x-4) ^ 2 = 16

The low temperatures for one week in Scottsburg, IN are given below. What was the mean daily low temperature for the week? −7.9°
gogolik [260]
Your answer: -0.8

first you would add all of your temperatures together which would give you -5.6

then you would divide -5.6 by 7 because u have 7 numbers

which would give you your answer!

hope this helps, good luck!
