(a+b)^2= a^2+b^2 +2ab
= 16 + 2 (8)
= 16 + 16
= 32
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Population of country in 2006 , P = 300 million.
Consumption of fruit juice in 2006 by while population, C = 1.85 billion.
To Find :
The average number of gallons of fruit juice consumed per person in the country in 2006.
Solution :
We know, 1 billion = 1000 million.
C = 1.85 billion = 1850 million.
Now, average umber of gallons of fruit juice consumed per person in the country in 2006 is :

Hence, this is the required solution.
This is the concept of quadratic equations, solving the equation 2x^2-12x+20=0 using the formula we get:
x=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
from our equation, a=2,b=-12 and c=20
x=[-(-12+/-sqrt((-12)^2-4*2*20)]/(2*2)
x=[12+/-sqrt(144-160]/4
x=[12+/-sqrt(-16)]/4
x=[12+/-4i]/4
x=[3+\-i]
the answer is A] 3+/-i
as tiers increases, sales increases
since there seems to be no assemtote (horizontal or vertical), As the number of cake tiers increases without bound, the total monthly sales increase without bound.
