Completing the Square
2. Solve the equation by completing the square. Show your work.
x^2 – 30x = –125
Step 1: Add to both sides of the equation. (2 points)
Add 225 both sides of the equation
x^2 – 30x + 225 = –125
+ 225
x^2 - 30x + 225 = 100
Step 2: Factor the left side of the equation. Show your work. (2 points)
Hint: It is a perfect square trinomial.
x^2 - 30x + 225 = 100
Factor the left side of the equation:
(x - 15)^2 = 100
Step 3: Take the square root of both sides of the equation from Step 2. (1 point)
√(x - 15)^2 = √100
Step 4: Simplify the radical and solve for x. Show your work. (1 point)
x - 15 = + - 10
x - 15 = 10
x = 25
x - 15 = -10
x = 5
Solutions x = 25, 5
Answer:
When you have iodine gas at 200 degrees, the temperature and thus pressure as so high, that when cooling down you enter the liquid phase. And when some of this gas then condenses, the pressure drops. So the remaining part of the gas can sublime.

Answer:
Average value: 87,125
Step-by-step explanation:
(82,84,84,87,88,90,90,92) ↔ 8
(82+84+84+87+88+90+90+92)/8 = 697/8 = 87,125
