Given a quadratic equation
1. the first thing we do when we want to compete the square, is write the coefficient of x as 2 times a number.
In our case the coefficient of x is 10, so we write 10 as 2*5
2. then we write +
and -
to the expression:
Answer:
We are given a concave spherical mirror with the following dimensions:
Radius = 60 cm; D o = 30 cm
Height = 6 cm; h o = 6 cm
First, we need to know the focal length, f, of the object (this should be given). Then we can use the following formulas for calculation:
Assume f = 10 cm
1/ f = 1 /d o + 1 / d i
1 / 10 = 1 / 30 + 1 / d i
d i = 15 cm
Then, calculate for h i:
h i / h o = - d i / d o
h i / 6 = - 15 / 30
h i = - 3 cm
Therefore, the distance of the object from the mirror is 3 centimeters. The negative sign means it is "inverted".
Should we simplify or solve for m...?
Let's try the actual solution of the system
<span>y = –2x + 1
y = –2x – 3
Note that the slopes of the graphs of these two lines are the same: -2.
That means that the lines are parallel to one another.
Only the y-intercepts (1 and -3) are different.
Since the 2 lines never intersect, the system has no solution.

Here I drew one to show an example
I hope this helps
