Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{5}{6}$ x - 4 = - 2 ( add 4 to both sides )

$\frac{5}{6}$ x = 2 ( multiply both sides by 6 to clear the fraction )

5x = 12 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = $\frac{12}{5}$ = 2 $\frac{2}{5}$ → A

Rewrite the function by completing the square.<br> f(x) = x2 – 10x + 44<br> +<br> f(x) = (x+

Answer:

$f(x)=(x-5)^{2}+19$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=x^{2}-10x+44$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$f(x)-44=x^{2}-10x$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$f(x)-44+25=x^{2}-10x+25$

$f(x)-19=x^{2}-10x+25$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$f(x)-19=(x-5)^{2}$

$f(x)=(x-5)^{2}+19$
