Answer:
"complete the square" to put in vertex form
Step-by-step explanation:
It may be helpful to consider the square of a binomial:
(x +a)² = x² +2ax +a²
The expression x² +x +1 is in the standard form of the expression on the right above. Comparing the coefficients of x, we see ...
2a = 1
a = 1/2
That means we can write ...
(x +1/2)² = x² +x +1/4
But we need x² +x +1, so we need to add 3/4 to the binomial square in order to make the expressions equal:
_____
Another way to consider this is ...
x² +bx +c
= x² +2(b/2)x +(b/2)² +c -(b/2)² . . . . . . rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²*
= (x +b/2)² +(c -(b/2)²)
for b=1, c=1, this becomes ...
x² +x +1 = (x +1/2)² +(1 -(1/2)²)
= (x +1/2)² +3/4
_____
* This process, "rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²," is called "completing the square"—especially when written as (x-h)² +k, a parabola with vertex (h, k).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we're dividing the polynomial by 
, we'll be using -1 to start the division.
Before setting the division up, let's list the coefficients of 
from descending powers and the constant.
The coefficient of 
is 3
Since we don't see an 
, the coefficient will be 0.
The coefficient of is 5.
Lastly, the constant, which is the term without the is -1.
Refer to the attached picture before continuing.
After referring to the picture, we now have the coefficients for the quotient.
The coefficient of is 3.
The coefficient of is -3.
The constant is 8.
Lastly, since the last number is not zero, it's the remainder just like regular division. This can be tricky to remember, but -9 is not the actual remainder.
The remainder is actually 
.
Now putting all the pieces together, we get:
Answer:
Modern uses. Roman numerals are still used today and can be found in many places. They are still used in almost all cases for the copyright date on films, television programmes, and videos - for example MCMLXXXVI for 1986.
