Answer:

  "complete the square" to put in vertex form

Step-by-step explanation:

It may be helpful to consider the square of a binomial:

  (x +a)² = x² +2ax +a²

The expression x² +x +1 is in the standard form of the expression on the right above. Comparing the coefficients of x, we see ...

  2a = 1

  a = 1/2

That means we can write ...

  (x +1/2)² = x² +x +1/4

But we need x² +x +1, so we need to add 3/4 to the binomial square in order to make the expressions equal:

  x^2+x+1\\\\=(x^2+x+\frac{1}{4})+\frac{3}{4}\\\\=(x+\frac{1}{2})^2+\frac{3}{4}

_____

Another way to consider this is ...

  x² +bx +c

  = x² +2(b/2)x +(b/2)² +c -(b/2)² . . . . . . rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²*

  = (x +b/2)² +(c -(b/2)²)

for b=1, c=1, this becomes ...

  x² +x +1 = (x +1/2)² +(1 -(1/2)²)

  = (x +1/2)² +3/4

_____

* This process, "rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²," is called "completing the square"—especially when written as (x-h)² +k, a parabola with vertex (h, k).

Alex makes $61,992 per year and pays about 25% of his gross monthly income in federal and state taxes. He wants to find an apart
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Rent each month = $1421

Amount left after rent and taxes monthly = $2453

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross salary; $61,992 per year

His gross pay per month will be;

61992/12 = $5166

Now, the standard recommended rule in budgeting for house rent is to use between 25% to 30% of your monthly pay for rent.

Now, let's adopt an average of 27.5%

Thus;

Amount he can afford for rent each month = 27.5% × 5166 = $1420.65 ≈ $1421

We are told he pays 25% of his gross monthly income in federal and state taxes.

Thus, amount spent on taxes each month = 25% × 5166 = $1291.5 ≈ $1292

Thus, amount he will gave left after rent and taxes = 5166 - (1421 + 1292) = $2453

Py+7=6y+q<br> what is the answer for this question (linear equations with unknown coefficients)?
Temka [501]
Assuming your solving for y:
py+7=6y+q
-6y -7 -6y -7
(p-6)y = q-7
divide both sides by p-6
y=(q-7)/(p-6)
