Answer:
It is a perfect square. Explanation below.
Explanation:
Perfect squares are of the form
(
a
+
b
)
2
=
a
2
+
2
a
b
+
b
2
. In polynomials of x, the a-term is always x.(
(
x
+
c
)
2
=
x
2
+
2
c
x
+
c
2
)
x
2
+
8
x
+
16
is the given trinomial. Notice that the first term and the constant are both perfect squares:
x
2
is the square of x and 16 is the square of 4.
So we find that the first and last terms correspond to our expansion. Now we must check if the middle term,
8
x
is of the form
2
c
x
.
The middle term is twice the constant times x, so it is
2
×
4
×
x
=
8
x
.
Okay, we found out that the trinomial is of the form
(
x
+
c
)
2
, where
x
=
x
and
c
=
4
.
Let us rewrite it as
x
2
+
8
x
+
16
=
(
x
+
4
)
2
. Now we can say it is a perfect square, as it is the square of
(
x
+
4
)
.
Hi there!
2x - 4y = 9
Begin by isolating the y variable by moving 2x to the right-hand side of the equation. (Subtract 2x from both sides):
2x - 2x - 4y = 9 - 2x
-4y = 9 - 2x
Further isolate by dividing both sides by -4:
-4y / (-4) = (9 - 2x) / (-4)
y = -9/4 - 2x/(-4)
Simplify further:
y = -9/4 + 1/2x
y = 1/2x - 9/4
The "b" value is the y-intercept, therefore:
x = 0 at y = -9/4
