Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Question (1)
x² + 10x + 12
= x² + 2(5x) + 5² - 5² + 12
= [x² + 2(5x) + 5²] - 5² + 12
= (x + 5)² - 25 + 12 [Since, a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)²]
= (x + 5)² - 13
Question (2)
y² - 6y - 15
= y² - 2(3y) - 15
= y² - 2(3y) + 3² - 3² - 15
= [y² - 2(3y) + 3²] - 3² - 15 [Since, a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²]
= (y - 3)² - 3²- 15
= (y - 3)² - 9 - 15
= (y - 3)² - 24
1 6/8 cups of flour
Just subtract 2 1/8 from 3 7/8
No solution
As 6x on lhs and 2×3x on the rhs are equal and cancel each other
A. 81
F(x)=
if x=4, then F(4) = = 3×3×3×3=81
