Find the value of c that completes the square

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kitty [74]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 16x + c

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 16x

x² + 2(- 8)x + 64

= (x - 8)²

Thus

x² - 16x + 64 = (x - 8)² ← a perfect square

with c = 64

A football coach is trying to decide: When a team is ahead late in the game, which strategy is better?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

You are more likely to win by playing regular defense.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume out of 100 reviewed games, there were 50 regular defense games and 50 prevent defense games. And out of 50 regular defense games, 38 were win, 12 were lose. And out of 50 prevent defense game, 29 were win, 21 were lose.

Probability to win the game by playing regular defense is:

P(win | regular) = 38/50 = 0.76

Probability to win the game by playing prevent defense is:

P(win | prevent) = 29/50 = 0.58

Since the probability of winning by regular defense game is more than prevent defense game (0.76 > 0.58), you are more likely to win by playing regular defense.

Mary has 15 points with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there
torisob [31]

Answer:

The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

Mary has 15 coins with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there

Let

x ----> the number of nickel coins

y ----> the number of quarter coins

Remember that

1\ nickel=\$0.05

1\ quarter=\$0.25

we know that

Mary has 15 coins

so

x+y=15 -----> equation A

The total value of the coins is $1.75

so

0.05x+0.25y=1.75 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (10,5)

therefore

The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5

Write an equation of the line satisfying the given conditions. Through (2, -5), parallel to 5x 6y + 7
mojhsa [17]

We have to determine the equation of the line passing through the point (2,-5) and parallel to the line 5x = 6y+7

When two lines are parallel, then the slopes of the two lines are equal.

Equation of line with point (x_1, y_1) and slope 'm' is given by:

(y-y_1) = m(x-x_1)

Since, we have to determine the equation of a line with point (2,-5).

So, the equation of the line is : (y-(-5)) = m(x-2)

y+5 = m(x-2)

Since, the line is parallel to the line 5x = 6y+ 7

So, 6y +7 = 5x

6y = 5x - 7

y = \frac{5}{6}x - \frac{7}{6}

So, slope of the line  'm' is \frac{5}{6}.

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

(y+5) = \frac{5}{6}(x-2)

6y + 30 = 5x - 10

6y - 5x = -10-30

6y - 5x = -40

Therefore, 6y - 5x = -40 is the required equation of the line.
