Can someone clearly explain and workout Q19? Much appreciated

The x coefficient is 2
Take half of 2 to get 2/2 = 1
Square 1 to get 1^2 = 1

Add and subtract 1 to the expression. This is the same as adding 0.

x^2 + 2x + 2
x^2 + 2x + 2 + 0
x^2 + 2x + 2 + (1-1)
(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 2 - 1
(x+1)^2 + 1

Answer: (x+1)^2 + 1

Solve 2cos ²y -siny -1=0 for 0° ≤y≤360°

natima [27]

$\displaystyle\bf\\2cos^2y -sin\,y -1=0~~~for~~0^o\leq y \leq360^o\\\\cos^2y=1-sin^2y\\\\2(1-sin^2y) -sin\,y -1=0\\\\2-2sin^2y-sin\,y-1=0\\\\-2sin^2y-sin\,y+2-1=0\\\\-2sin^2y-sin\,y+1=0~~~\Big|\times(-1)\\\\2sin^2y+sin\,y-1=0$

$\displaystyle\bf\\\boxed{\bf sin\,y=x}\\\\2x^2+x-1=0\\\\x_{12}=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1-4\cdot2\cdot(-1)}}{2\cdot2}=\\\\=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1+8}}{4}=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{9}}{4}=\frac{-1\pm3}{4}\\\\x_1=\frac{-1+3}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\boxed{\bf\frac{1}{2}}\\\\x_2=\frac{-1-3}{4}=\frac{-4}{4}=\boxed{\bf-1}\\\\sin\,y=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\boxed{\bf y_1=\frac{\pi}{6}~~or~~(30^o)}\\\\\boxed{\bf y_2=\frac{5\pi}{6}~~or~~(150^o)}\\\\sin\,y=-1\\\\\boxed{\bf y_3=\frac{3\pi}{2}~~or~~(270^o)}$

PLEASE HELP GUYS! The math club is order tee shirts for each member. The tee shirts cost $12.50 each plus a one - time set - up

ser-zykov [4K]

So ($25)

find out how much 126 t-shirts will cost including the $25 set up fee.
so in calculator its (12.50 × 126) + 25. This gives you 1600.
Now you know the answer, you work your way backwards.

y = x + $25

I THINK THIS IS RIGHT IF ITS NOT PLEASE TELL ME
