If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x^2-16x-34=0, which number would have to be added to "complete the square"?

The complete expression of the algebra is;

4a(-2a³ + 4a + 3) + 2a(3a³ - 2a + 7) = -2a⁴ + 12a² + 26a

We are given the expression as;

4a(-2a³ + 4__ + 3) + 2a(__a³ - 2a + _) = -2a* + 12a² + 26a

Expanding the left hand side gives;

-8a⁴ + __(16a) + 12a + __(2a⁴) - 4a² + __(2a)

Grouping like terms gives;

-8a⁴ + __(2a⁴) + 12a + __(2a) + __(16a) - 4a²

Factorizing out exponents gives;

a⁴(-8 + __(2)) + a(12 + __(2)) + a²((16/a) - 4)

Comparing this with the right hand side gives;

a⁴(-8 + __(2)) = -2a*  -----(1)

((16/a) - 4)a² = 12a²    -----(2)

(12 + __(2))a = 26a   ----(3)

From eq 1, we can see that;

* = 4

From eq 2;

((16/a) - 4) = 12

16/a = 12 + 4

a = 16/16

a = 1

From eq 3;

(12 + __(2)) = 26

A rectangle having perimeter 26 m has a length of 8m and breadth of 5m.

What is perimeter?

The complete length of a shape's boundary is referred to as the perimeter in geometry. A shape's perimeter is calculated by adding the lengths of all of its sides and edges. Its dimensions are expressed in linear units like centimetres, metres, inches, and feet.

The value for perimeter of a rectangle is - 26 m

Let x be the length of the rectangle and y be the breadth.

The formula for perimeter of rectangle is 2(l + b)

From the given information, it is known that -

Perimeter = 2(x + y) = 26 m...(1)

Difference between the length and breadth = x - y = 3 m....(2)

Use the first equation to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other -

2x + 2y = 26

x + y = 13....(3)

Add equation (2) and (3) -

x + y + x - y = 13 + 3

2x = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8 m

Now substitute the value of x in equation (2) -

x - y = 3

8 - y = 3

y = 8 - 3

y = 5 m

Therefore, the length is 8 m and the breadth is 5 m.

Explanation for problem 1

The center of dilation is point P, which is not located on line AB. This means line A'B' will move further away from P after applying the scale factor. It means segments AB and A'B' are not on the same line.

Side note: Side BC is through line P, so segment B'C' shares the same line with BC.

---------------------------

Explanation for problem 2

The scale factor enlarges the side lengths. In this case, the scale factor 2 will double each side. This in turn doubles the perimeter.

perimeter of A'B'C' = 2*(perimeter of ABC)

new perimeter = 2*(old perimeter)

Therefore, the perimeters are not the same.

5(x – 3) = x + 13

Step 2

See if x is a solution

5 (6-3) ?= 6+13

5 (3) ?= 19

15 ?= 19

Step 3

This is not true so it is not a solution

Step 4

5(x – 3) = x + 13

Distribute

5x-15 = x+3

Subtract x from each side

5x-x -15 = x+13-x

4x-15 = 13

Add 15 to each side

4x-13+13 = 15+13

4x =28

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 28/4

x = 7

7 is a solution

Answer:

First you substitute 6 for x!

5(6 - 3) = 6 + 13

6 - 3 = 3

The equation is now:

5 * 3 = 6 + 13

5 * 3 = 15

6 + 13 = 19

The result is:

15 = 19 which is not a true statement.

x is not equal to 6.

Now lets try 7.

5(7 - 3) = 7 + 13

7 - 3 = 4

7 + 13 = 20

5 * 4 = 20

Answer: The inequalities are y ≥ (2/3)x + 1 and y < (-1/4)x + 2 and (−6, −3) satisfied the inequality.

What exactly is inequality?

A variation between two values indicates whether one is smaller, larger, or otherwise unrelated to the other.

In other words, inequality is the inverse of equality. For example, if 2 = 2, it is equal; however, if I say 3 = 6, it is incorrect; the correct expression is 3 6.

Step-by-step explanation:As per the given phrase,

y is greater than or equal to two-thirds times x plus 1 ⇒ y ≥ (2/3)x + 1

y is less than negative one-fourth times x plus 2 ⇒ y < (-1/4)x + 2

Substitute, point (−6, −3)

-3 ≥ (2/3)(-6) + 1

-3 ≥ -3  

Substitute in second inequality,

-3 < (-1/4)(-6) + 2

-3 < 7/2

In other words, 3/4 fraction of the bill are for vegetables, while 1 part is for fruit.

Using the data provided in the issue, we can determine what percentage of Marco's bill is made up of veggies. We are aware that fruit and vegetables account for 7/12 of the total bill and make up 1/8 of the total. By deducting the portion of the bill that is for fruit from the portion that is for fruit and vegetables, we can determine the portion of the cost that is for vegetables.

We must identify a common denominator for the two fractions in order to accomplish this. Since 12 and 8 have a denominator of 24, we convert both fractions to have a denominator of 24.

1/8 turns becomes 3/24

7/12 changes to 21/24.

We deduct 3/24 from 21/24 in order to derive the percentage of fruit from the percentage of fruit and vegetables.

21/24 - 3/24 = 18/24

Vegetables make up 18/24, or 3/4, of Marco's bill.

Yes, every vector in R^4 can be written as a linear combination of the columns of the matrix B.

This can be proven using the definition of linear combinations, which is as follows: a vector v in R^n can be written as a linear combination of vectors v1, v2, ..., vk if and only if there exist scalars c1, c2, ..., ck such that v = c1*v1 + c2*v2 + ... + ck*vk. With this definition, we can prove that the columns of B span R^4 by showing that for any vector v in R^4, there exist scalars c1, c2, c3, c4 such that v = c1*B1 + c2*B2 + c3*B3 + c4*B4, where B1, B2, B3, B4 are the columns of the matrix B above. To prove this, we can simply solve the system of equations given by c1*B1 + c2*B2 + c3*B3 + c4*B4 = v for c1, c2, c3, c4. This can be done by using Gaussian elimination, which will yield a set of scalars c1, c2, c3, c4 that can be used to express any vector in R^4 as a linear combination of the columns of the matrix B, thus proving that the columns of B span R^4.

The total area of the shaded sections of the trapezoid in square inches is 32.76 square inches.

An object's area is how much space it takes up in two dimensions. It is the measurement of the quantity of unit squares that completely fill the entire surface of an enclosed figure. The square unit, which is frequently expressed as square inches, square feet, etc., is the accepted unit of area.

The shaded sections in the trapezoid are triangles.

The area of the triangle is given by the following formula:

A = 1/2 (b)(h)

For the first triangle, b = 5 and h = 6.3. Substituting the value in the formula we have:

A1 = 1/2 (5)(6.3)

A1 = 15.75

For the second triangle, b = 5.4 and h = 6.3. Substituting the value in the formula we have:

A2 = 1/2 (5.4)(6.3)

A2 = 17.01

The total area of the shaded region of the trapezoid is calculated by adding the area of the individual shaded portion:

A = A1 + A2

A = 15.75 + 17.01

A = 32.76

Hence, the total area of the shaded sections of the trapezoid in square inches is 32.76 square inches.

The length of the apothem of a regular hexagon is 4√3

The apothem of a regular hexagon is the distance from the center of the hexagon to the midpoint of one of its sides.

To find the length of the apothem, we can use the formula:

apothem = (side length) / (2 * tan(180/n))

where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

In this case, n = 6 (since the hexagon is regular).

So, to find the apothem of a regular hexagon with a side length of 8 ft, we can plug these values into the formula:

apothem = (8 ft) / (2 * tan(180/6))

This gives

apothem = 8 ft / (2 * tan(30))

According to the empirical rule -

a) About 95% of organs will be in range of weights of organs 230 grams and 430 grams.

b) 68% percentage of organs weighs between 280 grams and 380 grams.

c) 32% percentage of organs weighs less than 280 grams or more than 380 grams.

d) 97.35% percentage of organs weighs between 180 grams and 430 grams.

What is empirical rule?

The empirical rule 68-95-99.7 tells us that:

68% of the data is expected to be within 1 standard deviation from the mean.

95% of the data is expected to be within 2 standard deviation from the mean.

99.7% of the data is expected to be within 3 standard deviation from the mean.

There is a bell shaped distribution ( assume as approximately normal) with mean of 330 g and standard deviation of 50 g.

a) This happens for an interval with ±2 standard deviations from the mean.

That is:

X1 = μ + z1 × σ                  X2 = μ + z2 × σ

X1 = 330 - 2 × 50             X2 = 330 + 2 × 50

X1 = 330 - 100                  X2 = 330 + 100

X1 = 230                           X2 = 430

Therefore, the range of weights of organs is 230 grams and 430 grams.

b) Calculate the z-scores for each value to know how many standard deviations are from the mean.

z1 = (x1 - μ)/σ                   z2 = (x2 - μ)/σ

z1 = (280 - 330)/50        z2 = (380 - 330)/50

z1 = -50/50                     z2 = 50/50

z1 = -1                              z2 = 1  

The values are 1 standard deviations from the mean each.

Therefore, the expected percentage is 68%.

c) This is the complementary of the point b.

Then, it is expected that (100 - 68)% = 32% of the organs weigh less than 280 grams or more than 380 grams.

d) Calculate the z-scores for each value to know how many standard deviations are from the mean.

z1 = (x1 - μ)/σ                   z2 = (x2 - μ)/σ

z1 = (180 - 330)/50        z2 = (430 - 330)/50

z1 = -150/50                     z2 = 100/50

z1 = -3                              z2 = 2  

The values are 1 standard deviations from the mean each.

Therefore, the expected percentage is 68%.

The values are 3 standard deviations from the mean each. Between 180 and 330 there is 99.7%/2 = 49.85% of the data.

The values are 2 standard deviations from the mean each. Between 330 and 430 there is 95%/2 = 47.5% of the data.

Then, between 180 grams and 430 grams there is (49.85% + 47.5)% = 97.35% of the data.

Therefore, the expected percentage is 97.35%.

In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras' theorem is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry between the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.

The Pythagorean theorem states that, in a right triangle, the length of the hypotenuse squared equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides or legs of the triangle.  Algebraically, a2+b2=c2.  In your example, the length of the ladder would be the hypotenuse and the distance from the wall would be one of the legs.  So substitute these values into the equation to get: 25+b2=144 or 25+b2=144 and then subtract 25 from both sides to get b2=119.  Therefore b=√119≈10.908.  If your problem requires an exact answer in its most simplified form, please note that √119=10.9
