Answer:
B. (x-2)^2=12
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant that completes the square is the square of half the coefficient of the x-term. That value is (-4/2)^2 = 4.
There is already a constant of 2 on the left side of the equal sign, so we need to add 2 to both sides to bring that constant value up to 4.
x^2 -4x +2 = 10 . . . . . . . given
x^2 -4x +2 +2 = 10 +2 . . . . complete the square (add 2 to both sides)
(x -2)^2 = 12 . . . . . . . . . write as a square
1 gal + 2 qt + 3 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 7 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 3 pts
----------------------------add
3 gal + 8 qt + 13 pts
1 gal = 4 qts
1 gal = 8 pts
1 pt = 1/2 qt
13 pts = 6.5 qts
now we have 3 gal + (8 + 6.5) = 3 gal + 14.5 qts
12 qts = 3 gal
now we have : 6 gal + 2.5 qts or 6 gal + 2 qts + 1 pt <=== answer
in rectangular form the equation is
