A quadratic equation is shown: x2 + 18x + 76 = 0 Which of the following is the first correct step to write the above equation in

the form (x − p)2 = q, where p and q are integers? x2 + 18x + 76 + 9 = 0 + 9 x2 + 18x + 76 + 5 = 0 + 5 x2 + 18x + 76 − 5 = 0 − 5 x2 + 18x + 76 − 9 = 0 − 9

Answer:

  x^2 + 18x + 76 + 5 = 0 + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to determine the constant that is needed to be able to write the expression in the desired form. That constant is the square of half the x-term coefficient: (18/2)^2 = 9^2 = 81.

The constant that is present is 76, which is 5 fewer than the needed constant, so the "first step" is to add 5 to both sides of the equation:

  x^2 + 18x + 76 + 5 = 0 + 5

Then the next step would be to write the left side as a square:

  (x +9)^2 = 5 . . . . . . . p = -9; q= 5

Which graph could potentially have a correlation coeffiecient (r value) of 0.95?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

C,

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the mean of the measures of the three exterior angles of a triangle if two of the interior angles have measures of 63 an
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

  1. Mean score=120

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Areas of a triangle add upto 180degrees (63+78+x=180) 141+x= (x=180-141) x=39
  2. Areas on a straight line add upto 180degrees

180-78=102

180-63=117

180-39=141

  1. 102+117+141=360
  2. Mean=360/3 =120

Which sequence of transformations will verify that EFGH and quadrilateral EFGH and quadrilateral E'F'G'H are congruent?
levacccp [35]

D) EFGH moved onto E'F'G'H after rotating 180 counterclockwise around the origin and the reflecting across the y-axis.

<h3>How to carry out transformations?</h3>

From online resources gotten about this question, for quadrilateral EFGH and quadrilateral E'F'G'H to be congruent, what we must do first is to rotate 180° counterclockwise around the origin and then move EFGH onto E'F'G'H'.

The last step to get this proof of congruency is to reflect across the y-axis.
