Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the completing square method to find make the expression a perfect square.

(b/2)²=ac where a and b are coefficients of x² and x respectively while c is a constant.

= (-8/2)²=16

We add 16 to both sides and the expression becomes a perfect square.

Answer:

The correct answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given a quadratic equation,

x² – 8x = 9

<u>To find the number to be added</u>

The given equation be  x² – 8x = 9

here we have to add (b/2)² -  the square of half the coefficient of x,

Here b = -8

(b/2)² = (-8/2)² = -4² = 16

Add both side with 16

x² – 8x + 16  = 9 + 16

(x - 4)² = 25

(x - 4)² = 5²

Answer:  

2 hours:  3968  <u>[I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]</u>

At midnight:  12137

Step-by-step explanation:

The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour.  So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.  

The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15.  Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b.  b is (1 +  percent increase).

Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450

At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:

(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.

Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor,  If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:

P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour.  t is time, in hours.  

If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is

P = ab^t

Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM.  That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10

P = (3000)*(1.15)^10

P = 12137
