The form (x - p)^2 = q is the form that completing the square will leave us with.

---Add 5 to both sides

x^2 - 8x = 5

---Divide the b term by 2, and square it. Then, add that number to both sides.

-8/2 = -4

(-4)^2 = 16

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 5 + 16

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 21

---Factor!

(x - 4)^2 = 21

p = 4

q = 21

Hope this helps!! :)

100%-59%-=41%
41% divided by 94=0.44
59% divided by 6=9.83
9.83 divided by 0.44= 22.34. One of these 6 people would be 22.34 times as wealthy as one of these other 94 people.

I need help with 25 and 26 plzz
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

25.

Combine like terms.

4t+7=-33

subtract 7 from both sides

4t=-40

divide both sides by 4

t=-10

26.

Subtract 2a from both sides

5=7a-16

add 16 to both sides

21=7a

divideby 7 on both sides

a = 3

I'd suggest getting the app photomath or using cymath to help you with these problems. they give you the answer and how to get it step by step
