Answer:
(x - 5)² = 41
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the completing square form
- the form x² ± bx + c is a completing square if it can be put in the form
(x ± h)² , where b = 2h and c = h²
# The completing square is x² ± bx + c = (x ± h)²
# Remember c must be positive because it is = h²
* Lets use this form to solve the problem
∵ x² - 10x = 16
- Lets equate 2h by -10
∵ 2h = -10 ⇒ divide both sides by 2
∴ h = -5
∴ h² = (-5)² = 25
∵ c = h²
∴ c = 25
- The completing square is x² - 10x + 25
∵ The equation is x² - 10x = 16
- We will add 25 and subtract 25 to the equation to make the
completing square without change the terms of the equation
∴ x² - 10x + 25 - 25 = 16
∴ (x² - 10x + 25) - 25 = 16 ⇒ add 25 to both sides
∴ (x² - 10x + 25) = 41
* Use the rule of the completing square above
- Let (x² - 10x + 25) = (x - 5)²
∴ (x - 5)² = 41
Answer:
12 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Total length of the board = 48 in
It must be divided into 4 pieces of equal length
This means, there will be 3 cut to have 4 pieces
Each cut will cause a waste of 3/16 in.
Total waste = 3 cut × 3/16 in
= (3*3)/16
= 9/16 in
Length of board remaining = Total length of the board - Total waste
= 48 - 9/16
= (768-9)/16
= 759/16 in
How long will each piece be after the cuts are made?
Length of each piece after the cut = Length of board remaining / 4
= 759/16 ÷ 4
= 759/16 × 1/4
= 759/64
= 11.859375
Approximately 12 pieces to the nearest whole number
