Take half of the coefficient of x (which is 2/5) and square it:
[ (1/2)(2/5) ]^2 = (1/5)^2 = 1/25, or 0.04
Thus, to rewrite x^2 + (2/5)x to include a perfect square trinomial,
x^2 + (2/5)x = x^2 + (2/5)x + (1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or
(x+1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or (x + 1/5)^2 - 1/25
Answer:
270 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If she drove 120 miles in 2 hours, that means she drives at 60 miles per hour. 4 hours and 30 minutes can be seen as 4.5, since 30 minutes is half an hour. So then you multiply 60 by 4.5 and get 270.
