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
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
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 1716
Therefore, 6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.
It would be -5 because 4- 3*12/4 = -5
