How to solve such questions?
Such Questions can be easily solved just by some Algebraic manipulations and simplifications. We just try to make our expression in the form which question asks us. This is the best method to solve such questions as it will definitely lead us to correct answers. One such method is completing the square method.
Completing the square is a method that is used for converting a quadratic expression of the form
to the vertex form
. The most common application of completing the square is in solving a quadratic equation. This can be done by rearranging the expression obtained after completing the square:
, such that the left side is a perfect square trinomial

On comparing with the given equation we get
p = -
and q = 
∴
= 
= - 34

The length of the parking lot is 89m.
To find the length, we can abide by the following formula:
L = A/W
where L is the length, A is the area, and W is the width.
Given this formula, we can set up an equation:
7,031 / 79 = 89
The length of the parking lot is 89 meters.
Part A:
There are 25 blocks for the length, and the length of each is 5.5 inches. 5.5x25=137.5
There are 9 blocks for the height, and each is 2.75 inches. 2.75x9=24.75
Since we're trying to find how much longer the length is to the width, we find the difference. 137.5-24.75=112.75
So part A answer is <em><u>112.75 (or 112¾)</u></em>
Part B:
We know the length is 137.5 and the height is 24.75. To find how many times longer the length is, we need to divide to see how many 24.75 can go into 137.5.
137.5÷24.75=5.55
So the answer to part B is <u><em>5.55. Given the context, the answer would probably be 5, because that's how many entire height can fit.</em></u>

Sorry if it's wrong lol

f(x) just means that the number in the parentheses is the x-value and if it asks for f(x) it wants the y-value at that x point
