For this case we can represent the problem as a mathematical equation.
 Let
 x = height of Alex.
 y = height of Noah.
 The equation that best represents the problem is
 y = 1.5x
 Substituting Alex's height value
 y = 1.5 * (1.6) = 2.4
 y = (2.4m) * (100cm / 1m) = 240cm
 Then, the subtraction of both heights will result in how much higher Noah is
 240cm-160cm = 80cm
 answer
 Noah is 80cm taller than Alex

I need to do this problem by completing the square . help please

Answer:

the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case I would immediately rewrite n² - 2n - 5 = 10 as

n² - 2n                  = 10 + 5 = 15.

To complete the square:  Identify the coefficient of n (it is -2). Halve that, obtaining -1, square this result, and then add the outcome (1) to and subtract the outcome (1) to n² - 2n:

n² - 2n  <em>+ 1 - 1   </em>             = 15

Next, rewrite n² - 2n  + 1 as the square of a binomial:

(n - 1)² = 15

Finally, take the square root of both sides:

n - 1 = ±√15

so that the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15
