Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When you go shopping for anything, you know that the more of that something you buy, the more money you are going to spend. In other words, the amount of money you spend depends directly upon the amount of stuff you buy. So the number of boxes of cookies you buy is the independent variable and the amount of money you spend on the cookies is the dependent variable.
Yes you did those two correctly
False, An example would be an equilateral triangle with 3 sides of 3 inches, and another with three sides of 5 inches. They will be similar but not congruent because their sides differ. because the sides and volumes differ they will not be congruent.
Ok, first group x terms
f(x)=(x²+4x)-8
factor out quadratic coefient (no need but that's the step)
f(x)=1(x²+4x)-8
take 1/2 of the linear coefient and square it
4/2=2, (2)²=4
add positive and negative of it insides the parenthasees
f(x)=1(x²+4x+4-4)-8
factor perfect square
f(x)=1((x+2)²-4)-8
distribute
f(x)=1(x+2)²-4-8
f(x)=1(x+2)²-12
and, now if we wanted to find the x intercepts where f(x)=0 then
0=1(x+2)²-12
12=(x+2)²
+/-2√3=x+2
-2+/-2√3=x
x=-2+2√3 or -2-2√3
that is where the x intercept are
and completed square form is
f(x)=(x+2)²-12
