so for every 4 dogs, there are 7 cats. You could replace this with 8 dogs to 14 cats (you're doubling both).

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The solutions are $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}$ and $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$0=-2x^{2}+2x+3$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$-3=-2x^{2}+2x$

Factor the leading coefficient

$-3=-2(x^{2}-x)$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$-3-0.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})$

$-3.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$-3.5=-2(x-0.5)^{2}$

$7/4=(x-0.5)^{2}$

square root both sides

$x-0.5=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$

$x-\frac{1}{2}=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1}{2}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}$

Which graph shows a proportional relationship?

kherson [118]

Answer:

The second option

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change needs to stay constant.

The rate of change can be explained by looking at the "rise" (y) over the "run"(x)

The rate of change for the second option is 2. We know this because...

Rise(2)

----------

Run(1)

Try looking at one of the points, now go up 2 and over 1, you should now be at the second point, do it again but twice, you should now be at the third point. A proportional relationship must also go through the origin (0,0)
