Complete the square: x^2 + 24x = 17
Identify the coefficient of x. It is 24. Take half of that coefficient: 24/2 = 12.
Now add the square of 12 to both sides of x^2 + 24x = 17
x^2 + 24x + 144 = 17 + 144
Write in factored form:
(x + 12)^2 = 161
Taking the square root of both sides:
x+12 = plus or minus
Answer: 16 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It's easiest to multiply improper fractions and then to convert them back into mixed numbers, so 4 1/2 would become 9/2 and 3 2/3 would become 11/3. 
= 99/6. Now just simplify to 33/2 and then convert back into a mixed number. 16 1/2
Answer:
(X+5)^2 + (Y-2)^2 =49
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of the circle
(X-a)^2+(Y-b)^2= r^2
Center=(-5 ; 2) , so : a= -5 y b=2
y r=7
Answer:
y=-1/2x-3
I hope this helps u :)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope between two given points:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Find the difference between the first two points
12-9.5/2-1 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
14.5-12/3-2 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
17-14.5/4-3 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
The rate of change between each point is 2.5
