Answer:
x = -8 ± √62
Step-by-step explanation:
An equation needs an equals sign. I assume the expression equals zero?
x² + 16x + 2 = 0
To complete the square, start by making the leading coefficient 1 (which it already is).
Next, take half of the b coefficient, square it, and add the result to both sides.
(16/2)² = 8² = 64
x² + 16x + 64 + 2 = 64
Factor the perfect square:
(x + 8)² + 2 = 64
Solve for x:
(x + 8)² = 62
x + 8 = ±√62
x = -8 ± √62

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the number of cups of butter needed.
Let s represent the number of cups of sugar needed.
Let o represent the number of cups of oat needed.
Let f represent the number of cups of flour needed.
The recipe calls for two times as many cups of sugar as butter. It means that
s = 2b
Two times as many cups of oats as sugar. It means that
o = 2s
Two times as many cups of flour as oats. It means that
f = 2o
If Duane puts in one cup of butter, it means that b = 1
Therefore,
s = 2 × 1 = 2 cups
o = 2s = 2 × 2 = 4 cups
f = 2o = 2 × 4 = 8 cups
Therefore, he needs to add 8 cups of flour
The answer is 3. Is that 1 and half or no ?
