Answer:
p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)
q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = a (x − x₁) (x − x₂)
Expand:
y = a (x² − x₁x − x₂x + x₁x₂)
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + x₁x₂)
Distribute a to the first two terms:
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x) + ax₁x₂
Complete the square:
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + ¼(x₁ + x₂)²) + ax₁x₂ − ¼ a(x₁ + x₂)²
y = a (x − ½ (x₁ + x₂))² + a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
Therefore:
p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)
q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
"In Grade 2 and early in Grade 3, students learned to use bar models to solve two-step problems involving addition and subtraction. This is extended in this chapter to include multiplication and division.
<span>Both multiplication and division are based on the concept of equal groups, or the part-part-whole concept, where each equal group is one part of the whole. In Grade 2, students showed this with one long bar (the whole) divided up into equal-sized parts, or units. This unitary bar model represents situations such as basket of apples being grouped equally into bags." </span>https://www.sophia.org/tutorials/math-in-focus-chapter-9-bar-modeling-with-multipli
1) 0.78
2) 34.28
This is because the number in the 3rd decimal place for both numbers is 5 or above so it is rounded up rather than down.
You could subtract the denominator fro the numerator which would give you a total sum of 1 thousand an fifty five
