What value of b makes the polynomial x2+bc+16 a perfect square

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
3 0
For a perfect square

b² = 4*a*c

Comparing ax² + bx + c = 0 to x² + bx + 16

a = 1,    c = 16

<span>b² = 4*a*c
</span>
<span>b² = 4*1*16
</span>
<span>b² = 64
</span>
b = √64

b = 8

The value of b = 8.

A pole that is 3.2 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.45 m long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 36.5 m
Usimov [2.4K]
To solve this, use proportions. The height of the pole corresponds to the height of the building; the shadows are corresponding: 3.1/x =1/45.5
3.1 times 45.5=1x
141.05=x
The building is 141 meters tall
