Answer:
- C) (x − 3)2 = 25
- C) Factor out 4 from 4x2 + 40x.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation will "complete the square." That square is 9, so the result on the right is 16+9 = 25. Only selection C matches.
___
2. To complete the square, you want to be able to put the quadratic into the form a(x -h)^2 = -k. For the purpose, it is most convenient to first factor "a" from the given quadratic. Then you can determine "-h" to be half the x-coefficient inside the parentheses.
Here, that looks like ...
4(x² +10x) = 80 . . . . . . . . . . step 1: factor out 4
4(x² +10x +25) = 180 . . . . . add 25 inside parentheses and the same number (4·25) on the right side of the equation
4(x +5)² = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square

Answer:
B. 11 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
c = 5 5/6*2
Change the mixed number to an improper fraction
5 5/6 = (6*5+5)/6 = (30+5)/6 = 35/6
c = 35/6 *2
c = 35/6 *2/1
= 70/6
Now we change it back to a mixed number
6 goes into 70 11 times
11*6 = 66 with 4 left over
11 4/6
We can simplify 4/6 by dividing the top and bottom by 2
11 2/3
