Answer:
1 1/2 shortening
1 tsp salt
4 1/2 granulated sugar
1 or 3 tsp baking soda (not sure if it’s 1/2 or 1 1/2 for the original recipe)
1/2 eggs
4 c cake flour
1 vanilla extract
food coloring
1/2 butter flavoring
1) You must add 4 to each side to complete the square.
2) You must add 16 to each side to complete the square.
3) You must add 27 to each side to complete the square.
Explanation:
1) x²-4x=0
To find the number that we add to both sides, we look at b, the cofficient of x. It is -4. We divide it by 2 and square it; -4/2 = -2; (-2)² = 4. This is the value that we add to both sides.
2) x²-8x=6
-8/2 = -4; (-4)²=16
We add 16 to each side to complete the square.
3) 3x²+18x=24
First we can factor a 3 out of the left side:
3(x²+6x) = 24
Our b value is now 6. 6/2 = 3; 3²=9. The 9 would, however, go in the parentheses, so it would be multiplied by 3, which makes 27; this means we would add 27 to both sides.
3x4=12
12x5=60

Answer:
x²-8x-1=0
comparing above equation with ax²+bx+c=0
a=1
b=-8
c=-1
x=

=(--8+-√(64-4×1×-1)/2×1
=8+-√(64+4)/2
taking positive
x=(8+√68)/2=2(4+√17)/2=4+√17
taking negative
x=(8-√68)/2=2(4-√17)/2=4-√17
The perimeter = 4 * length of a semicircle of radius 5 == 4* pi * 5 = 20 pi cm
The area of one of the clear parts = 1/2 area of square - area semicircle
= 1/2 * 10^2 - 1/2 pi *5^2 = 50 - 12.5pi
So area of shaded parts = area of square - 4 (50 - 12.5pi)
= 100 - 200 + 100pi = (100pi - 100) cm^2
