1. your leading coefficient has to be 1 (nothing before the x^2). If there is you have to divide that out before you start.
2. Move your constant (the number without any x attached) to the other side of the equation
3. take 1/2 of the b term (the one with the x attached) and then square it and then add it to both sides
4. Factor the left side
5. Set each factor equal to 0 and solve
Here is an example:
4x^2-24x+20=0
The first term is not a 1 so we have to divide it out by 4 first
x^2-6x+5=0
Move the 5 to the other side. It becomes negative.
x^2-6x=-5
Take 1/2 of 6 (3) then square it (9) and add it to both sides.
x^2-6x+9=-5+9
Factor the left side
(x-3)(x-3)=4
(x-3)^2=4
To solve you need to square root both sides
x-3=+/-
x-3=+/-2
x=3+2=5
x=3-2=1
Those would be your two answers.

to find the hypotenuse (or the ramp in question 4) you can use the equation
with a and b being the 3 feet and 9 feet and c being the unknown (ramp).
So if you plug 3 and 9 into the equation, it looks like this.
then square them.
simplify.
take the square root of both sides.
is approx. 9.5 so the answer would be H.
Answer:
237 ⁹/23% change
Step-by-step explanation:
115=100%
337-155=273 which represents the increase
115=100
273=?
273×100÷115= 237 ⁹/23%
Answer =237⁹/23%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change (slope) is 1 which is more than function 2 and less than function 1
