Given the expression:
-x^2+18x-99
to solve by completing squares we proceed as follows:
-x^2+18x-99=0
this can be written as:
-x^2+18x=99
x^2-18x=-99.......i
but
c=(-b/2)²
Hence:
c=(-(-18)/2)²=81
adding 81 in both sides of i we get:
x^2-18x+81=-99+81
factorizing the quadratic we obtain:
(x-9)(x-9)=-18
thus
(x-9)²+18=0
the above takes the vertex form of :
y=(x-k)²+h
where (k,x) is the vertex:
the vertex of our expression is:
(9,18)
hence the maximum point is at (9,18)
NOTE: The vertex gives the maximum point because, from the expression we see that the coefficient of the term that has the highest degree is a negative, and since our polynomial is a quadratic expression then our graph will face down, and this will make the vertex the maximum point.

Pls help me solve 5.a and 5.b
Tamiku [17]
You would add both totals since they said how much was the bill includingall the totals. So $192.77+ 48.19= 240.96
Since there is 12 people that need to chip in each, you would divide that total by 12.
240.96/12 = $20.08 each person would have to pay
Hope this helped!

HELP ME Using the following equation, complete the square and find the center and radius of the circle:
IrinaK [193]

Answer: (-2,3), r=5\ \text{units}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

the equation is x^2+y^2+4x-6y-12=0

completing the square

\Rightarrow (x^2+2\times 2\times x+4-4)+(y^2-2\times3\times y+9-9)-12=0\\\Rightarrow (x^2+2\times 2\times x+4)+(y^2-2\times3\times y+9)-12-4-9=0\\\Rightarrow (x+2)^2+(y-3)^2=25\\\Rightarrow (x+2)^2+(y-3)^2=5^2\\\Rightarrow (x-(-2))^2+(y-3)^2=5^2

Thus, the center of the circle is (-2,3) and radius is r=5\ \text{units}
