X^2 - 8x = (x - 4)^2 - 16
we add 16 to give x^2 - 8x + 16 which is a perfect square
x^2 - 8x + 16 = (x - 4)^2
answer is 16
Answer:
Slope-intercept form
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is actually slope-intercept form.
<span>Chris' average speed is 3.5mph:
Lets take Chris' brother speed = B
then Chris speed = (B+ 1) mph-------given in the question
and:
The average speed for covering 18 miles= chris' average speed + his brother's
average speed = (B+ 1) + B
since Speed = Distance covered / time taken
then average speed for 18 miles can also be found by: 18 miles/3 hours = 6 miles per hour
then we have; (B+ 1) + B = 6mph
(B +1) = (6-B)
B+B = 6-1=5
2B=5
B=5/2=2.5 mph (this is Chris' brother average speed)
Hence Chris' average speed is = B+1= 2.5+1= 3.5mph</span>

Answer:
12,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the current employees be x
65% increase in number = 0.65x
If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;
x + 0.65x = 20,460
1.65x = 20,460
x = 20,460/1.65
x = 12,400
Hence the current number of employees is 12,400
