Answer:
My bid was $42 less than the winning bid.
Step-by-step explanation:
The winning bid is x.
$28 is 40% of x
0.4x = 28
x = 28/0.4
x = 70
The winning bid was $70.
$70 - $28 = $42
Answer: My bid was $42 less than the winning bid.
To complete a square for ax²+bx+c, you first make a=1.
in this case, a is already 1
move c to the right side: x²+14x=-47
next, add (1/2 of b)² to both sides, in this case, b=14, half of 14 is 7, so x²+14x+ 7²=-47+7²
the left side is now a perfect square: (x+7)²=2
x+7=√2 or x+7=-√2
x=√2-7, or x=-2-√7
