Answer:

(4x² -6x+1.5²) +9-1.5²= (2x-1.5)²+9-2.25= (2x-1.5)²+6.75

(2x-1.5)² is greater or equal to 0 , 6.75>0 so expression is positive for all real numbers x

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Use the formula a²-2ab+b²= (a-b)² (You need to make squared expression because it is always positive)

Consider 4x² as a² and -6x=-2ab

4x²=a² a=2x  ab=3x 2x*b=3x

b=1.5

Express 4x² -6x+9= (4x² -6x+1.5²) +9-1.5²= (2x-1.5)²+9-2.25= (2x-1.5)²+6.75

(2x-1.5)² is greater or equal to 0 , 6.75>0 so expression is positive for all real numbers x

Given :

At a restaurant, Brianna and Naomi each order an appetizer for $6.50 and an entree for $9.75.  

The sales tax is $0.98 and they leave a tip of $5.85.

To Find :

How much did Brianna and Naomi spend in all.

Solution :

Total expenses, T = Food + tax + tip

T = $( 6.50+9.75) + $0.98 + $5.85

T = $( 16.25 + 0.98 + 5.85 )

T = $23.08

Therefore, total expenses is $23.08 .

Hence, this is the required solution.
