Multiply both 3 and 7 by 2, this gives you equivalent fractions (there are more possible equivalent equations of course)
Answer:
Matt should have factored out the leading coefficient 2 on the second step before completing the square
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square, you must first factor the leading coefficient from the first two terms.
y = 2x² − 10x − 4
y = 2 (x² − 5x) − 4
y = 2 (x² − 5x + 25/4 − 25/4) − 4
y = 2 (x² − 5x + 25/4) − 25/2 − 4
y = 2 (x − 5/2)² − 33/4
All we need to do it subtract 281 from 2685 and divide that number by 2 to find out how many base hits Ricky made.
2685 - 281 = 2404
2404/2 = 1202
So Ricky made 1202 base hits
To find out how many Pedro made, just add 281 to Ricky's number and you have your answer
1202 + 281 = 1483
Hope that helps! :)
