Answer:
Her first error was adding the wrong number to both sides. Instead of 4², it should be 2²
Step-by-step explanation:
When completing the square, the number that needs to be added to both sides is (b/2)²
In this problem, b is 4. So, Carly should have added 2² to both sides, but she added 4² instead.
So, her first error was adding 4² to both sides instead of 2²
Answer:
158.4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
first find the volume of the tank


to convert this to m^3 we know that 1m = 100cm


the cm^3 cancel out.


by simply converting the side-lengths to meters beforehand can give you this answer directly:

it is given that 1 meter cube of water weighs about 2200 pounds.

multiply both sides with 0.072 to find our answer:


hence the weight of the water in the tank would be 158.4 pounds!
You could subtract the denominator fro the numerator which would give you a total sum of 1 thousand an fifty five
-5 and 15. -5 times 15 is equal to -75, and they also add to 10.
