Answer:
The smallest integer is -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smallest integer be x.
Since the integers are all multiples of 4, they are
=> x, x+4, x+8, x+12 and x+16
=> x + x+4 + x+8 + x+12 + x+16 = 20
=> 5x + 40 = 20
Subtract 40 from both sides of the equation
5x +40 - 40 = 20 - 40
5x = -20
Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(which is 5)
x = -4
∴ the smallest integer is -4.
Hope this helps!!!
You could complete the square to state the vertex.
You could use the quadratic equation to find the roots (which are complex).
Try an example that will require both.
y = x^2 + 2x + 5
Step One
Get the graph. That's included below.
Step Two
Provide the steps for completing the square.
Note: we should get (-1,4)
y= (x^2 +2x ) + 5
y = (x^2 +2x + 1) + 5 - 1
y = (x +1)^2 + 4
The vertex is at (-1,4)
Step Three
Find the roots. Use the quadratic equation. Note that the graph shows us that the equation never crosses or touches the x axis. The roots are complex.
a = 1
b = 2
c = 5
x = -1 +/- 2i
x1 = -1 + 2i
x2 = -1 - 2i And we are done.
