5(x^2 - 14x + 258/5)
= 5((x-7)^2 -49+258/5)
= 5((x-7)^2 + 13/5)
= 5(x-7)^2 + 13
I belive this is how it should be done
<h3>
Answer: 9 meters</h3>
===========================================
Work Shown:
- side a = 8
- side b = 5
- angle C = 88 degrees
Applying the law of cosines
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2*a*b*cos(C)
c^2 = 8^2 + 5^2 - 2*8*5*cos(88)
c^2 = 64 + 25 - 80*cos(88)
c^2 = 86.2080403
c = sqrt(86.2080403)
c = 9.2848285
c = 9
Technically he needs 10 meters of rope because of the extra 0.28 portion, but I'll stick with 9 meters since your teacher said to round to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
Step 1 should be (14.4+18)...PEMDAS
Step-by-step explanation:


By the power rule,

(this seems to be the step you're not getting?)

The next step is to pull out a common factor of
from the antiderivative:

so that the final result is

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3² = 9, so √9 = 3
4² = 16, so √16 = 4.
12 is closer to 9 than to 16, so √12 is closer to √9 than to √16.
√12 ≈ 3 (to the closest integer)
