ANSWER IT ONLY IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER. IF YOU DONT KNOW DONT ANSWER IT. Make sure you explain please! Which of the following shows the correct first step to solve x^2 - 16x = -21 by completing the square?

A)x^2 - 16x + 64 = -21

B) x^2 - 16x + 64 = -21 + 64

C) x^2 - 16x + 16 = -21 + 16

D) x^2 - 16x + 8 = -21 + 8

For using completing the square, first make sure that the coefficient of x² is 1, if it's not 1, then you need to make it 1, by dividing both sides of the equation by the coefficient whatever it is. So, jere the coefficient of x² is 1, so now we need to develop a whole square on both sides, for which,we will add the square of half of coefficient of x on both sides, so adding (-16/2)² = (-8)² = 64 on both sides, we will be having :

Which suits the B) option

Hence, Option B) is correct

B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to completing the square is by dividing "b" by 2, squaring that number, and adding it on both sides. In this case, 16/2 = 8 and 8 squared = 64. In answer choice B, this is correctly added to both sides of the equation.

See the full steps for completing the square below. If you're still stuck on this, I suggest watching the completing the square video on Tutors.com. It is very helpful!

Have a great day!

SI=(P*R*T)/100

P=2000

R=1.5

T=6

SI=(2000*1.5*6)/100

=(2000*9)/100

=180

Neil will earn interest of 180

For 1 flavor there are 9 topping

Therefore, for 5 different flavors there will be 5*9 choices

No of choices= 5*9

=45 

The total nom of  code that can be used is equal to 5+3 = 8

The answer is in the image 

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Approximately it is aqual to 1300kg

The solution is given in the image below

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
