The value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
<h3>Vertex Form of a quadratic expression</h3>
Given the quadratic expressions
1.5x^2+6x+......
1.5(x^2 + 4x)
Using the completing the square method
The coefficient of x = 4
Half of the coefficient = 4/2 = 2
The square of the result = 2^2 = 4
The equation is expressed as:
f(x) = 1.5(x^2+4x+ 4) - 4
f(x) = 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
Hence the value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4

Answer:
THE ANSWER IS 9 CDS THANK ME LATER
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 of 20 is 20/2 which is 10.
All you really need to do here is to divide 20 by 2 to get 10.
Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+4) ^ (1/3) + (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = 0
Subtract (x+4) ^ (1/3) from each side
(x+4) ^ (1/3) - (x+4) ^ (1/3)+ (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)
(2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)
Cube each side
(2x+8) ^ (1/3) ^3= -(x+4) ^ (1/3)^3
2x+8 = -(x+4)
Distribute the negative sign
2x+8 = -x -4
Add x to each side
2x+8 +x =-x+x-4
3x+8 = -4
Subtract 8 from each side
3x+8-8 =-4-8
3x =-12
Divide by 3
3x/3 = -12/3
x = -4
Although the problem gives the value of b, it's really not needed.
Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so we just need to calculate: 2a + 2c = P
Plug the given values in:
2 * 7.6 + 2 * 14.6 = 44.4 units, or choice (C).
