Answer:
x^2 -8x -5 = -3
x^2 -8x -2 = 0
We complete the square by:
1) Moving the "non X" term to the right:
x^2 -8x = 2
2) Dividing the equation by the coefficient of X²
The coefficient of x is 1 so we don't do anything
3) Now here's the "completing the square" stage in which we:
• take the coefficient of X
that is -8
• divide it by 2
-8 ÷ 2 = -4
• square that number
-4*-4 = 16
• then add it to both sides of the equation.
x^2 -8x +16 = 2 +16
That becomes
(x -4)^2 = 18
we take the square root of both sides:
(x -4) = sqr root (18)
x1 = sqr root (18) +4
AND
(x+4) = sqr root (18) -4
x1 = sqr root (18) +4 = 4.2426406871 + 4 = 8.2426406871
x2 = sqr root (18) -4 = = 4.2426406871 - 4 = .2426406871
Step-by-step explanation:
When thinking about reinforcement, always remember that the end result is to try to increase the behavior, whereas punishment procedures are used to decrease behavior. For positive reinforcement, try to think of it as adding something positive in order to increase a response.
