Answer:
- Powers of the variable descending left to right
- right side of the equal sign is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
For some constants a, b, and c, the standard form* is ...
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
___
It is nice if the leading coefficient (a) is positive, but that is not required.
The main ideas are that ...
- Powers of the variable are descending
- All of the non-zero terms are on the left side of the equal sign
- Like terms are combined
_____
* This is the <em>standard form</em> for a quadratic. For other kinds of equations, when the expression is equal to zero, this would be called "general form."
The third one because its the only one decreasing
Do you have A picture of the line?
The original square has the area (8 in)^2 = 64 in^2.
If we mult. this area by 36, we get the area of a larger square 2304 in^2.
The new side length is sqrt(2304 in^2), or 48. In other words, the original square has side length 8 in, but the 'new' square has side length 48 in.
