Answer:
x = - 3 ± 
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x + 7 = 0 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x² + 6x = - 7
using the method of completing the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = - 7 + 9
(x + 3)² = 2 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ±
i will bite - this is not a complete ans but an approximation:
there are 100*99*98 ways to pick 3 different no. out of 100
if 2 of the no. picked are >10, then there is no way the third no. can be larger than the products of the other 2 nos.
there are 90*89*98 ways to pick 2 nos between 10 and 100 and a third no. between 1 and 100.
So an approximate ans = 100*99*98 - 90*89*98 = 185220 but the actual ans will be smaller than this.
Answer= (3 x b)+6
Because you multiply to find the total of the golf balls. Then you'll have to add 6.
Hopefully this helped!
Since we will be completing the square we need to isolate the x
y-5 = 2x^2 -4x
now we the coefficient of the x^2 to equal 1 so we take 2 as common factor
y-5 = 2(x^2 -2x)
now we'll make it perfect square by adding 2 to both sides
y-5+2=2(x^2-2x+1)
now simplify and convert the right side to squared expression
y-3 = 2(x-1)^2
now isolate the y
y = 2(x-1)^2 +3 that's it
