Answer:

(x-4)² = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, take the middle term -8x and divide the coefficient in 2 and square it. Here it is -8/2 = -4. -4² = 16. Add 16 to both sides.

x² - 8x - 10 = 18

x² - 8x + 16 - 10 = 18 + 16

(x-4)² - 10 = 34

(x-4)² = 44

Answer:

$156.35

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A group of friends went to lunch, and their bill was $132.50

In this problem

$132.50 represent the 100%

100%+18%=118%

using proportion

Find out the total amount that represent 118%

Let

x ----> the total amount of the bill

$\frac{\$132.50}{100\%}=\frac{x}{118\%}\\\\x=132.50(118)/100\\\\x=\$156.35$
