What value of c makes the trinomial below a perfect square x2 + 7x + c?

2 answers:

5 0

We have that
x² + 7x + c
Group terms that contain the same variable
(x² + 7x )+ c
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation
(x² + 7x+3.5² )+ c-3.5²

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x+3.5)²+ c-3.5²
so
c-3.5² must be zero
c-3.5²=0------- c=3.5²------> c=12.25

the answer is
the value of c must be 12.25

-x + 2y = 3 2x – 3y = -6

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

x = -3

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations :- 

-x + 2y = 3 ....... ( i )

2x - 3y = -6 ....... ( ii )

From ( i ) 

-x + 2y = 3

-x = 3 - 2y

x = 2y - 3 ........ ( iii )

From ( ii ) 

2x - 3y = -6

2x = -6 + 3y

$x = \frac{ - 6 + 3y}{2}$

........ ( iv )

Equating ( iii ) and ( iv )

x = x

$2y - 3 = \frac{ - 6 + 3y}{2}$

4y - 6 = -6 + 3y

4y - 3y = -6 + 6

y = 0

Putting value of y in ( iii )

x = 2y - 3

x = 2 ( 0 ) - 3

x = -3

Every economic decision has only positive benefits. gained opportunities. unavoidable limitations. a consequence or tradeoff.

Alina [70]

Every economic decision has "a consequence or tradeoff" - this final answer choice is correct. Every time that an individual, business, or institution makes an economic decision, they always forgo an opportunity to use the same capital or resources for other endeavors. As such, there is a tradeoff incurred by not making the decision to use the resource in another manner. This is known as opportunity cost and is one of the fundamental tenets of economic theory.
