Answer:

y=(x+12)^2\\

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a quadratic equation into binomial form we can compare the equation into the completing square form of a quadratic equation like this ,

y=a(x-h)^2+k

now since,

y=x^2+24x+144

we can equate both the equations from left hand side to right hand side like this,

x^2+24x+144=a(x-h)^2+k\\

now we solve,

x^2+24x+144=a(x-h)^2+k\\x^2+24x+144=a((x)^2-2(x)(h)+(h)^2)+k\\x^2+24x+144=a(x^2-2hx+h^2)+k\\x^2+24x+144=ax^2-2ahx+ah^2+k\\

now we compare the coefficients of x^2:

1 = a\\

now we compare the coefficients of x :

24=-2ah\\24=-2(1)h\\24=-2h\\\frac{24}{-2}=h\\-12=h\\

now we compare the constants , (constants are the letters which are not associated with any variable in this case the variable is x)

144 = ah^2+k\\144=(1)(-12)^2+k\\144=(1)(144)+k\\144=144+k\\144-144=k\\0=k\\

so now the value we got all the values for the completing square form we plug those in , a = 1 , h = -12 , k = 0 ,

y=a(x-h)^2+k\\y=1(x-(-12))^2+0\\y=(x+12)^2\\

this is the square of a binomial, if you want to verify if we expands this formula by the formula of (a + b)^2 we would get the same result. Thus this is the correct answer.

The table shows a linear function. <br>which equation represents the function?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The equation f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4 represents the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope intercept form to find the equation of line :

For any two points (x_1, y_1) and  (x_2, y_2) the equation of line is given by:

y -y _1 = m(x-x_1) ......[1] ;where m is the slope given by:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Consider any two points from table :

let (4, 2) and (0, 4) be any two points.

calculate slope:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{4-2}{0-4}

m = \frac{2}{-4} = -\frac{1}{2}

Now, substitute in equation [1]  we have:

y - 2 = -\frac{1}{2} (x-4)

Distributive property i.e,  a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c

y -2 = -\frac{1}{2}x +2

Add both sides 2 we get;

y -2+2 = -\frac{1}{2}x+2+2

Simplify:

y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4

Since, y= f(x)

f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4

therefore, the equation f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4 represents the function.

graph the image of this figure after a dilation with a scale factor of 2 centered at the origin use the polygon tool to graph t
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

For this answer, I will label the points. Starting at the top left, then top right, then bottom left and bottom right let the points be A, B, C, D.

The new coordinates will be

A(-4,10)

B(4,10)

C(-4,4)

D(4,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for a dilation which is a transformation that makes an image proportionately smaller or larger by a scale factor. The scale factor is how much smaller or larger the shape will be, if the scale factor is between 0 and 1 then it will shrink, if it is greater than one then the image will stretch (be larger). In this case, the scale factor is 2, therefore the image will stretch. Since the center of dilation is the origin, to find the new coordinates simply multiply each x and y value by the scale factor. So A's original coordinates (-2,5) become (-4,10) and so forth. Therefore the equation for this dilation is (x, y) → (2x,2y).

Describe how equality and democracy represent traditional American values,
user100 [1]

Answer:

The United States was founded on "equality". Our Declaration of Independence was created to ensure the rights given to us as American citizens and state what must be upheld to protect these rights. Equality comes from a very valued form of Government in America called Democracy. Americans are given the right to freedom of speech, and this represents traditional American values.
