Answer: p=1

Step-by-step explanation:

p^{2}+16p-17=0\\p^{2}+16p=17\\1^{2}+16(1)=17\\1+16=17\\p=1

(p-1)(p+16)

Also, here's the cross method in completing the square that I tried in the file attachment. I haven't done this in a while, so this may not be neat.

two angles in a triangle mesaure 65 degrees and 75 degrees what is the measure of the third angle of the triangle
podryga [215]

Answer:

40°

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior sum of a triangle is 180°.  Since we have two known angles we will subtract those values from 180 to obtain our third angle and so:

180°-65°-75°=40°

What is the range of the function f(x) = 4 − 2(x + 3)^2?
mash [69]

Answer:

(-infinity, 4]

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is the possible y values

The smallest that (x+3)^2 can be is zero

f(x) = 4 − 2(x + 3)^2

f(x) = 4 -2(0) = 4

This is the maximum value

As the square term gets bigger we are subtracting a larger amount and it will get more negative

Let x = infinity, x+3 = infinity and infinity ^2 = infinity  and 2* infinity = infinity

f(x) = 4 - infinity

     = -infinity

The range is -infinity to 4
