There are 2 roots so the only way to complete the square is,
![y=2x^2+8x-9\\y=2[(x^2+4x)]-9\\y=2[(x^2+4x+4)-4]-9\\y=2[(x+2)^2-4]-9\\y=2(x+2)^2-8-9\\y=2(x+2)^2-17](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D2x%5E2%2B8x-9%5C%5Cy%3D2%5B%28x%5E2%2B4x%29%5D-9%5C%5Cy%3D2%5B%28x%5E2%2B4x%2B4%29-4%5D-9%5C%5Cy%3D2%5B%28x%2B2%29%5E2-4%5D-9%5C%5Cy%3D2%28x%2B2%29%5E2-8-9%5C%5Cy%3D2%28x%2B2%29%5E2-17)
Just factor 2 out of 2x^2+8x (just ignore the -9) then find the number that will make the terms be able to complete the square.
then complete the square and multiply 2 inside the brackets.
subtraction as you already get the vertex form and know how to complete the square.
Vertex Form: 
Answer:
69.08
Step-by-step explanation:
22x3.14(PI)=69.08
It would be smaller because 11/12 = 22/24
E = some event
C = complement of event E
Since the events are complementary, this means P(E)+P(C) = 1
We know that P(E) = 3*P(C) since "an event is three times as likely as its complement"
So we can replace P(E) with 3*P(C) and then isolate P(C)
P(E) + P(C) = 1
3*P(C) + P(C) = 1
4*P(C) = 1
P(C) = 1/4
The probability of the complementary event is 1/4
So the probability of the original event is 3/4 (three times 1/4)
Answer: 3/4
note: in decimal form, 3/4 = 0.75
Answer:
Distance: 25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
we have distances between cities as follows:
From Portland to Tacoma: 120 miles
from Portland to Seattle: 145 miles
120+x=145 ⇒ x = 145 - 120 = 25 miles
from Tacoma to Seattle : 25 miles (according graph)
