If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x 2 − 9 x − 8 = 0 x 2 −9x−8=0, which number would have to be added to "complete the square"?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Add 81/4 to both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 9x − 8 = 0

x^2 - 9x = 8

Take the coefficient of the x term: -9

Divide by 2: -9/2

Square it: 81/4

Add 81/4 to both sides.

6x + 11= - (6x + 5)

Answers

Answer:

x = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 11 = -6x - 5

12x = -16

x = -4/3

Answer:

x = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 11= - (6x + 5)

Distribute the minus sign

6x+11 = -6x-5

Add 6x to each side

6x+11 +6x = -6x-5+6x

12x+11 = -5

Subtract 11 from each side

12x+11-11 = -5-11

12x = -16

Divide by 12

12x/12 = -16/12

x = -4/3

A spring has natural length 20 cm. Compare the work W1 done in stretching the spring from 20 cm to 30 cm with the work W2 done in stretching it from 30 to 40 cm. (Use k for the spring constant) How are W2 and W1 related?

Answers

Answer:

W₂ is three times W₁ (W₂ = 3W₁)

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

W = ke²/2............. Equation 1

Where W = workdone in stretching the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.

For W₁,

W₁ = ke₁²/2

Given: e₁ = 30-20 = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Substitute these value into equation 1

W₁ = k(0.1²)/2

W₁ = 0.005k Joules

For W₂,

W₂ = (ke/2)-W₁

Given: e = (40-20) = 20 cm = 0.1 m

Substitute these value into equation 1

W₂ = (k×0.2²/2)-0.005

W₂ = 0.015k Joules.

W₂/W₁ = 0.015k/0.005k

W₂/W₁ = 3

Therefore,

W₂ = 3W₁

What is the formula for margin of error?

Answers

Answer:

ME = z*s /√n

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is obtained as the product of the critical value of the distribution at a certain α-level and the standard error :

The critical value = Z*

The standard error = standard deviation / √sample size

Standard deviation = s

Sample size = n

Margin of Error = z * s/√n

It can be done as follows :

Using distributive property to solve it.

(y - .18) x .08 = 0.08(y) - 0.18(0.08)

Destiny wants to use all of the chocolate candy bars and cookies to make identical snack bags for her cousins.
What is the greatest number of snack bags that Destiny can make?

Answers

Answer:

Destiny will be able to create 12 identical snack bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben travels a regular distance of 80 miles to reach office. Today, he used an alternative route that covered a distance of only 75 miles. What is the decrease in the percentage of the distance travelled by ben

Answers

Answer:

Ben traveled 93.75% of his usual distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ben travels a regular distance of 80 miles to reach office, and today he used an alternative route that covered a distance of only 75 miles, to determine what is the decrease in the percentage of the distance traveled by Ben, the following calculation must be done:

80 = 100

75 = X

75 x 100/80 = X

93.75 = X

Therefore, Ben traveled 93.75% of his usual distance.

z = ____

solve for z.

ps.. pls help me lol. i need the answer

Answers

Answer:

z =  (17+4w)/(w-m)

Step-by-step explanation:

w • (-4+ z) = mz + 17

Distribute

-4w +wz = mz+17

Subtract mz from each side

-4w +wz - mz = mz+17-mz

-4w +wz-mz = 17

Add 4w to each side

-4w +4w+wz-mz = 17+4w

wz-mz = 17+4w

Factor out z

z(w-m) = 17+4w

Divide by (w-m)

z(w-m)/(w-m) = (17+4w)/(w-m)

z =  (17+4w)/(w-m)
