Follow the process of completing the square to solve x^2 - 10x + 8 = 0. What is the value of the constant that will be isolated
My name is Ann [436]
To solve using completing square method we proceed as follows:
x^2-10x+8=0
x^2-10x=-8
but
c=(b/2)^2
c=(10/2)^2=25
thus we can add this in our expression to get
x^2-10x+25=8+25
factorizing the LHS we get:
(x-5)(x-5)=33
(x-5)^2=33
getting the square roots of both sides we have:
x-5=+/-√33
x=5+/-√33

A swim meet has 13 contestants signed up for the 100-meter butterfly event. The first heat has 6 swimmers. How many different wa
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

A swim meet has 13 contestants signed up. To calculate the arrangement of first 6 swimmers in first heat we will use combinations because order doesn't matter.

So to select 6 swimmers out of 13 contestants number of different ways

= ^{13}C_{6}

= \frac{13!}{(6!)(13-6)!}

= \frac{13\times 12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{6!\times 7!}

= \frac{13\times 12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8}{6\times 5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1}

= \frac{1235520}{720}

= 1716

Therefore, 6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.
