we have

Equate the expression to zero to find the roots

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

Factor the leading coefficient

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.


Rewrite as perfect squares


square roots both sides


the roots are


so

therefore
<u>the answer is the option</u>

Checking for each option
Option A:

Substitute w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer

Option B:

Substitute w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer

Option C:

Substitute w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer

Option D:

Substitue w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer

Answer: Option B
Answer:
3 plus 4. and 2 plus 1. or 4 plus 3 or 1 plus 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the common ratio by dividing.
16 / 8 = 2
8 / a = 2
2 / b = 2
The common ratio is 2.
Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.
8 / 2 = 4 (a)
2 / 2 = 1 (b)
Now, we know that first 5 terms.
We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.
6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5
7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25
8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125
Part A: 2
Part B: a = 4, b = 1
Part C: 0.125
Best of Luck!
