Answer:

Her first error was adding the wrong number to both sides. Instead of 4², it should be 2²

Step-by-step explanation:

When completing the square, the number that needs to be added to both sides is (b/2)²

In this problem, b is 4. So, Carly should have added 2² to both sides, but she added 4² instead.

So, her first error was adding 4² to both sides instead of 2²

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

Lab Scores are 84, 81, and 93

Test Scores are 89 and 94

Each lab counts once and each test counts as two labs. At the end of the semester there is a final lab that counts as three regular labs.

Total Number of Labs= (3X1)+(2X2)+(1X3) =3+4+3 =10

To recieve an A(90), the average of her scores must be 90.

Let her final lab score =b

Refer to the attached diagram

Total Score=624+3b

For her average =90

\frac{624+3b}{10}=90

Cross multiplying

624+3b =90 X 10

624+3b =900

3b =900-624

3b =276

Dividing both sides by 3

b= 92

She must score 92 in her final lab to receive an A.
