Completing the square is done as follows:
1. Write the equation in a way that the constants are in the right side while the terms with x are on the left.
<span>9x2 +54x = 7
</span>
2. Make sure that the coefficient of the x^2 term is 1.
<span>9(x2 + 6x) = 7
</span>
3. Adding a term to both sides that will complete the square in the left side. This is done by dividing the coefficient of the x term by 2 and squaring it. Note: The same amount should be added to the right side to balance the equation.
<span>9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 7 + 81
9(x+3)^2 = 88

Answer: there are 59059 lbs of gravel.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a mixture of concrete, there are four lbs of cement mix for each pound of gravel. This means that eight lbs of cement would be mixed for 2 pounds of gravel and 12 lbs of cement would be mixed for 3 pounds of gravel and 12. Therefore, the constant ratio of cement to gravel is 4:1
The total ratio is 4 + 1 = 5
If the mixture contains a total of 295295 lb of these two ingredients, then the number of pounds of gravel that are there is
1/5 × 295295 = 59059 lbs
Answer:
<h2>1. 14 in</h2><h2>2. 28 in.</h2><h2>3. 43 in</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
x 2x 3x + 1
|---------|-------------------|---------------------------|
|<-------------------- 85 in ------------------------>|
85 = x + 2x + 3x + 1
85 - 1 = 6x
x = 84 / 6
x = 14
1st piece = 14 in
2nd piece = 2(14) = 28 in
3rd piece = 3(14) + 1 = 43 in
----------------------------
total = 85 in
