Answer:
132 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile cost $4
The adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82.
If the contractor pays a total of $545.82
Let the number of tiles be represented as x
The equation is represented as:
$17.82 + $4 × x = $545.82
17.82 + 4x = 545.82
Collect like terms
4x = 545.82 - 17.82
4x = 528
Divide bother sides by 4
4x/4 = 528/4
x = 132
The number of ceramic tiles the contractor bought = 132 tiles
Answer:
y = (x-3)^2 - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square, take the middle term bx and divide it in two. Then take the square.
x^2 - 6x - 8 has bx = -6x. Take -6/2 = -3. Square -3^2 = 9.
Now to finish completing the square add 9 and subtract 9 from one side.
y = x^2 - 6x - 8
y = (x^2 - 6x +9) -9 - 8
y = (x-3)^2 - 17
Answer:
y=2x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
show work
1=(2*2)+b
1=4+b
1-4=-3
-3=b
check work
y=2x-3
y=(2*2)-3
y=4-3
y=1

The multiple zero is x = -4.
The multiplicity is 2 because there are two values of x.
