The equivalent equation is x² + 20x = -102
<h3>
Simplification of quadratic equation</h3>
The equivalent equation can be obtained by factorizing or simplifying the given quadratic equation as shown below;
x² + 20x + 81 = -21
<em>collect similar terms together</em>
x² + 20x + 81 + 21 = 0
x² + 20x + 102 = 0
The equation can also be written as x² + 20x = -102
Thus, the equivalent equation is x² + 20x = -102

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
It's not a function because the x value 2 has two y values
So, the subtraction looks like this:
223
-119
_______
The reason why combining place values here is necessary is that 3 is less than 9 (so I can't just substract in the one's place without going to negative numbers)
so we combine the ones and tens places and substract the whole: 23-19 is four!
223
-119
_______
04
and then we continue
223
-119
_______
204
and that's the result!
Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.
Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.
Total amount burned:
on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
Total used . . 1/2 gallon .
Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:
(3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned) = 1/4 gallon left.
==> NOT empty
The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon
before the first flakes began to fly.
