Question: What value of c will complete the square below (
) and make the expression a perfect square trinomial?
Answer: c = 225
Step-by-step explanation:
Perfect square trinomials come in the form a² + 2ab + b², which is equal to (a + b)². In the presented trinomial, we can immediately identify that <u>a = x, and b² = c</u>, but we need to find the numerical value of
.
To do this, note that the middle term, or <u>2ab, corresponds with (is equal to) 30x</u>. We know that a = x, and thus, <u>2ab = 2bx</u>. Now, 2bx and 30x are corresponding terms; thus, <u>2bx = 30x</u>.
Dividing by
on both sides gives us <u>b = 15</u>. Therefore, c = b² = 15² = 225. (As a squared binomial, this would be (x + 15)² as a = x and b = 15.)
216 as when 2 there is 6x6 but when there’s 3 it’s 6x6x6 which is 216
Answer:
3 × 5 ^ n
Step-by-step explanation:
since the series is exponential, the ratio between adjacent terms is 5.
nth term of geometric/exponential series is given by:
nth term = first term × (ratio)^(n-1)
= 15 × 5^ (n-1)
= 15 × 5^n × 5^-1
= 3× 5^n

because you already have 30 dollars and they need at least 120 but if they get more then 120 they can still hold the science fair.
