Answer:
when the signed you up for the honor class they probably expected you to know more
The subtraction theorem states that for all real numbers,
and
,
.
(To subtract, we can add the inverse.)
Thus, we can have the these two equivalent expressions.
The answer is 4 1/2 (four and a half).
The equation for which square method is possible is x²-8=1
Step-by-step explanation:
For checking which of the equation satisfies the complete square condition, we proceed by checking each of the available options
1). x²+20x=52
Rewriting it as x²+20x-52
This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 1) and independent constant (i.e. 52) is not a perfect square.
2). 5x² + 3x = 9
This equation can be rearranged as 5x²+3x-9=0
This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 5) and independent constant(i.e. 9) is not a perfect square.
3.) x² −8=1
This equation can be rearranged as x²=9
Hence x= ±3
This binomial expression is a perfect square and can be done by the square method.
4). 3x² −x+17=0
This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 3) and independent constant(i.e. 17) is not a perfect square.
