Answer:

It is a perfect square expression.

It factors to (x+2)^2

===========================================================

Explanation:

The general format for a perfect square is

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

Which can be seen through the use of the FOIL rule.

Compare x^2+4x+4 with a^2+2ab+b^2, and we have these three equivalences:

  • x^2 = a^2 .... first terms
  • 4x = 2ab .... middle terms
  • 4 = b^2 .... last terms

Since x^2 = a^2, we can apply the square root to both sides to get a = x. Similarly, 4 = b^2 leads to b = 2. We could get b = -2, but that would mean 2ab = 2x*(-2) = -4x instead of 4x. So we'll stick with b = 2 instead.

Because a = x and b = 2, we then can say:

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

(x+2)^2 = x^2 + 2*x*2 + 2^2

(x+2)^2 = x^2 + 4x + 4

Showing that x^2+4x+4 factors to (x+2)^2.

Use quadratic regression to find
Rashid [163]

The quadratic equation is given by:

y = 3x² + 10x - 8

The standard equation of a parabola is given by:

y = ax² + bx + c

Where a, b, c are constants

At point (4, 80):

80 = a(4)² + b(4) + c

16a + 4b + c = 80     (1)

At point (-3, -11):

-11 = a(-3)² + b(-3) + c

9a - 3b + c = -11     (2)

At point (-1, -15):

-15 = a(-1)² + b(-1) + c

a - b + c = -15     (3)

Solving equations 1, 2 and 3 simultaneously gives:

a = 3, b = 10, c = -8

Therefore the quadratic equation becomes:

y = 3x² + 10x - 8
