Put the trinomial x^2+8x+14 into (x+a)^2+b form where a and b can be positive or negative. Thanks!

Answers

Answer 1

(x + a)^2 + b form can be achieved by a method known as completing the square.

Step 1: Divide the b term by 2 and square it

8 / 2 = 4

4^2 = 16

Step 2: Add and subtract 16 from the expression

---Adding 16 creates a perfect square trinomial between x^2 + 8x + 16. But, if we add 16, we also need to subtract it. So, we will subtract 16 from our c term, 14.

x^2 + 8x + 16 + 14 - 16

x^2 + 8x + 16 - 2

Step 3: Factor the perfect square trinomial

(x^2 + 8x + 16) - 2

(x + 4)(x + 4) - 2

(x + 4)^2 - 2

Answer: (x + 4)^2 - 2

Hope this helps! :)

At the store one pack of pencils are on sale 4 for $1.25. Another pack has 8 pencils for $2.50 with 20% off. Which is the better deal?

Answers

Answer:

second pack

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25÷4= 0.31 so for the first pack 1 pencil cost $0.31

2.50×20%= 0.5 so its ¢50 off. 2.50-0.50= 2. 2÷8= 0.25. so for the second pack 1 pencil costs $0.25 which is lower than the 1st pack.

Two friends rent an apartment together. They agree that one person will pay 3 times what the other person pays. If the rent is $850, then what equation could be used to determine how much each person pays?

Answers

Answer:

n+3n=$850  n is one person and 3n is the other represented by n

Step-by-step explanation:

Two friends rent an apartment, where one person pays *3 times* of what the other person pays.

This can be shown as, where x is equal to the pay of what the other person pays:
Again, one friend will pay 3 times what one person pays.

3x + x = 850

Which can be simplified to:

4x = 850

Where 850 is the total rent to be payed.

To find out how much one person pays, you can solve the equation for x.

4x = 850

x = $212.5

use substitution method (y = 2x-10 (2y=x-8

Answers

Answer:

  (4, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the expression for y given by the first equation to substitute for y in the second equation.

  2(2x -10) = x -8 . . . substitute for y

  4x -20 = x -8 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  3x = 12 . . . . . . . . add 20-x

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . .divide by 3

  y = 2(4) -10 = -2 . . . substitute for x in the first equation

The solution is (x, y) = (4, -2).

[tex]\huge\bf\underline{\underline{\pink{A}\orange{N}\blue{S}\green{W}\red{E}\purple{R:-}}}[/tex]

We've been given to find out the values of x & y from the two given linear equations by substitution method.

Here we have,

y = 2x - 10 - - - - - (1)

2y = x - 8 - - - - - (2)

As we have given the value of y i.e (y = 2x - 10) placing this value of y in the second equation we get,

[tex]:\implies\tt{2(2x - 10) = x - 8}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{4x - 20 = x - 8}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{4x - x = - 8 + 20}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{3x = 12}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{x = \frac{12}{3} }[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{x = 4}[/tex]

Placing x = 4 in equation (1) we get,

[tex]:\implies\tt{y = 2x - 10}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{y = 2 \times 4 - 10}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\tt{y = 8 - 10}[/tex]

Which of the following statements is meaningless?
A.There was a 3% decrease in the price of sugar.
B.There was a 200% increase in the population of a town.
C.There was a 120% decrease in the amount of water in a dam. D.There was a 0% change in the temperature in the room after 1 hour.

Answers

Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

If can't have a meaning as something can't decrease more than 100% of itself.

The statement that is meaningless is

There was a 120% decrease in the amount of water in a dam.

Option C is the correct answer.

What is a percentage?

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.

Example:

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

Example:

50% = 50/100 = 1/2

25% = 25/100 = 1/4

20% = 20/100 = 1/5

10% = 10/100 = 1/10

We have,

A percentage increase can be of any number.

A percentage decrease can not be below 100%.

Now,

A.

There was a 3% decrease in the price of sugar.

This is possible.

B.

There was a 200% increase in the population of the town.

This is possible.

C.

There was a 120% decrease in the amount of water in a dam.

This is not possible.

The highest percentage decrease can be up to 100%.

D.

There was a 0% change in the temperature in the room after 1 hour.

This is possible.

Thus,

There was a 120% decrease in the amount of water in a dam is meaningless.

Two cars leave an intersection at the same time. One drives east while the other travels south at 25 miles per hour faster than the other. After 2 hours, the cars are 250 miles apart. How fast is the southbound car driving?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras :

c² = a² + b²

c is the Hypotenuse (side opposite of the right angle), which is in our case the distance of the 2 cars.

after 2 hours the east car was driving x miles. and the south car was driving x + 2×25 = x + 50 miles.

x² + (x + 50)² = 250²

x² + x² + 100x + 2,500 = 62,500

2x² + 100x = 60,000

x² + 50x = 30,000

x² + 50x - 30,000 = 0

the solution for a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = 50

c = -30,000

x = (-50 ± sqrt(2500 - 4×1×-30000))/(2×1) =

= (-50 ± sqrt(2500 + 120000)/2 =

= (-50 ± sqrt(122500))/2 = (-50 ± 350)/2 =

= -25 ± 175

x1 = -25 + 175 = 150 miles

x2 = -25 - 175 = -200 miles.

negative distances don't make any sense here in our scenario, so the solution is x = 150 miles.

therefore, the east car was going 75 mph (traveled in 2 hours 150 miles).

and the south car was going 75 + 25 = 100 mph (traveled in 2 hours 200 miles).

If one of the roots of the equation x² – 4x + k = 0 exceeds the other by 2, then find the roots and determine the value of k.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the solutions for a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = -4

c = k

x = (4 ± sqrt(16 - 4k))/2 = 2 ± sqrt(4 - k)

x1 = 2 + sqrt(4 - k)

x2 = 2 - sqrt (4 - k)

x1 = 2 + x2

2 + sqrt(4 - k) = 2 + 2 - sqrt(4 - k)

2×sqrt(4 - k) = 2

sqrt(4 - k) = 1

4 - k = 1

k = 4 - 1 = 3

x1 = 3

x2 = 1

Answer:

The roots are 1 and 3.

k = 3.

Step- by-step explanation:

We use the facts that if α and β are the roots of ax^2 + bx + c = o then α+ β = -b/a and  α β = c/a.

The roots are written as  α and α+2, then:

α + α + 2 = -(-4)

2α + 2 = 4

α + 1 = 2

α = 1

also

α (α + 2) = k

Substituting for α:

1(1 + 2) = k

k = 3.

The roots are 1 and 1 + 2 = 3.
