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.

XY bisects DF at point E. If DE=2y and EF=8y-3, find the value of DF​
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If XY bisects DF at point E, then DE = EF.

Given DE = 2y and EF = 8y-3

2y = 8y-3

subtract 8y from both sides

2y-8y = 8y-8y-3

-6y = -3

y = 3/6

y = 1/2

y = 0.5

DF = DE+EF

DF= 2y+8y-3

DF = 10y - 3

DF = 10(0.5)-3

DF = 5-3

DF = 2

What is the area of the kite? (This was all that was given)
lesya [120]
The area of a kite is (1/2) * x * y, where x and y are the length of the two diagonals. In this case, the length of the two diagonals are 10 ft and 2 ft.
<span>Plug that in the equation, we get 1/2 * 2 * 10. We multiply the 2 and 10 first to get 20, that leaves us with 1/2 x 20, which is 10, so the area of this kite is 10 ft squared.</span>
