Answer:
8 and 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is just subtraction of fractions. First, you subtract the whole numbers. 10-2=8. Then you subtract the fractions. To do this, you have to make them equivalent. Just multiply the 1/4 by 2 and you get 2/8. Now, 7/8 - 2/8 = 5/8. Your final answer is 8 and 5/8
<span> first, write the equation of the parabola in the required form: </span>
<span>(y - k) = a·(x - h)² </span>
<span>Here, (h, k) is given as (-1, -16). </span>
<span>So you have: </span>
<span>(y + 16) = a · (x + 1)² </span>
<span>Unfortunately, a is not given. However, you do know one additional point on the parabola: (0, -15): </span>
<span>-15 + 16 = a· (0 + 1)² </span>
<span>.·. a = 1 </span>
<span>.·. the equation of the parabola in vertex form is </span>
<span>y + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>The x-intercepts are the values of x that make y = 0. So, let y = 0: </span>
<span>0 + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>We are trying to solve for x, so take the square root of both sides - but be CAREFUL! </span>
<span>± 4 = x + 1 ...... remember both the positive and negative roots of 16...... </span>
<span>Solving for x: </span>
<span>x = -1 + 4, x = -1 - 4 </span>
<span>x = 3, x = -5. </span>
<span>Or, if you prefer, (3, 0), (-5, 0). </span>
234 millimeters^2 is your answer
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).
Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).
That is (x + 4)^2.
Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.
(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.
That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
Answer: 16
