Step-by-step explanation:
I learned this easy way to complete the sqare in the fastest way possible
First you want to get it to x^2. So the first thing you would do is divide the entire equation by 2 to get 2(x^2 -5/2x +3/2). then you do one half of b or in this case -5/2. That would make -5/4. you would put this into the factor.
2( x -5/4 + ) ( x -5/4 - )
Then you square that number (-5/4)
That makes 25/16. you take that number and subtract the last number or the constant, c to make 1/16. now to finish it up you square root that number. the squre root of 1/16 is 1/4. then you put that into the last part of the factor.
2( x -5/4 + 1/4) ( x -5/4 - 1/4)
Then you simplify
(x-1) 2(x-3/2)
(x-1) (2x-3)
now to make sure I am correct, I will re-multiply it out
2x^2 -5x + 3
Answer:
As a mixed number, 8/3 is equal to 2-2/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x is equal to thirty-two.
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x - 32) = 0
x² - 32x = 0
x - 32 = 0
x = 32
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Has a slope of 2 and passes through (10,17)
Using the slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 2x+b
Substitute the point into the equation
17 = 2(10)+b
17 = 20+b
Subtract 20 from each side
17-20 =b
-3 =b
y = 2x-3
b. passes through (1,-4) and (2,-5)
First find the slope
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-5- -4)/(2-1)
= (-5+4)/(2-1)
= -1/1
= -1
Using the slope intercept form
y = -x+b
Substitute a point into the equation
-4 = -1(1) +b
-4 = -1+b
Add 1 to each side
-3 = b
y = -x+3
I think its b , but iam not sure
