Which of the following expressions correctly describes Completing the Square?

Which Of The Following Expressions Correctly Describes Completing The Square?

Answers

Answer 1

The expression that correctly describes completing the square is;

Option C; x² + ax + (a/2)²

Let's say we have an expression;

x² + ax + c = 0

Let us first rearrange to get;

x² + ax = -c

Add (a/2)² to both sides to get;

x² + ax + (a/2)² = -c + (a/2)²

Thereafter, we can simplify the left hand side to give; (x + a/2)² = -c + (a/2)²

But from the given options, the only one with a corresponding step with what we have is option C which is x² + ax + (a/2)²

Deductions for federal tax, state tax, and city tax
Deduction for F.I.C.A. or social security tax
Deduction of $117 for medical and dental insurance.
What would Jason’s net monthly income and net annual salary be after taxes and insurance?

Answers

Answer:

Gross Pay for 1 paycheck

Deductions for federal tax, state tax, and city tax hope it helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The net monthly income of Jason is $194.68 and the net annual salary is 23324.16.

What is gross pay?

Gross pay of an employee is basically sum of his basic pay, dearness allowance, any other allowance only. Public providend fund, income tax are not deducted from it.

How to find net pay?

1) Gross paycheck=2*40*25.5=$2040.

2) Federal tax=2040*21%=$428.4

3) State tax=25=$25

4) City tax=2040*12%=$244.8.

5) Deductions=2040*12.45=$252.96.

6) Net monthly income=2*(Gross pay-federal tax-state tax-city tax-deductions-deductions for F.IC.A. or social security tax)

=2*[2040-428.4-25-244.8-252.96-117]

=1943.68

7) Net annual salary=12* net monthly income.

=1943.68*12  ( 1year= 12 months)

=$23324.16

Hence the net monthly income of Jason is $194.68 and the net annual salary is 23324.16.

Find your own values that prove that tan(u-v) does not equal tan u - tan v. Show your work and explain why you chose these values.

Answers

To prove that tan(u - v) does not equal tan u - tan v, we start by assuming values for u and v.

To do this, we assume the following values

[tex]\mathbf{u = 75}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{v = 45}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{tan(u - v) \ne tan(u) - tan(v)}[/tex]

Substitute the assumed values for u and v

[tex]\mathbf{tan(75 - 45) \ne tan(75) - tan(45)}[/tex]

Subtract 45 from 75

[tex]\mathbf{tan(30) \ne tan(75) - tan(45)}[/tex]

Using a calculator, calculate the values of tan(30), tan(45) and tan(75)

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{0.5774 \ne 3.7321 - 1}[/tex]

Subtract 1 from 3.7321

[tex]\mathbf{0.5774 \ne 2.7321}[/tex]

Notice that the expression on the left-hand side and the expression on the right-hand side are not equal.

Hence, [tex]\mathbf{tan(u - v) \ne tan(u) - tan(v)}[/tex] is true

who can solve this equation and get the right answer
solve x-2y=12 if the domain is {-3,-1,0,2,5}

Answers

Answer:

x-2y=12

Solve for y

x-2y=12

Subtract x on both sides

-2y=-x + 12

Divide both sides by -2

y=\frac{1}{2}x - 6y=21x−6

the domain is {-3,-1,0,2,5}

Domain are the set of x values

Range are the set of y values

We are given with domain x, we need to find out y values using the equation y=\frac{1}{2}x - 6y=21x−6

when x=-3 , y=\frac{1}{2}(-3)-6=\frac{-15}{2}=-7.5y=21(−3)−6=2−15=−7.5

when x=-1 , y=\frac{1}{2}(-1)-6=\frac{-13}{2}=-6.5y=21(−1)−6=2−13=−6.5

when x=0 , y=\frac{1}{2}(0)-6=-6y=21(0)−6=−6

when x=2 , y=\frac{1}{2}(2)-6=-5y=21(2)−6=−5

when x=5 , y=\frac{1}{2}(5)-6=\frac{-7}{2}=-3.5y=21(5)−6=2−7=−3.5

Range is {-7.5, -6.5, -6 , -5, -3.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

solve the equation ? 1 equation with 2 variables ? that is not possible.

what you mean is probably find the range.

x - 2y = 12

-2y = -x + 12

2y = x - 12

y = (x - 12)/2 = (1/2)x - 6

x = -3

y = 1/2 × -3 - 6 = -1.5 - 6 = -7.5

x = -1

y = 1/2 × -1 - 6 = -0.5 - 6 = -6.5

x = 0

y = 1/2 × 0 - 6 = -6

x = 2

y = 1/2 × 2 - 6 = 1 - 6 = -5

x = 5

y = 1/2 × 5 - 6 = 2.5 - 6 = -3.5

so, the corresponding range of the function is

{-7.5, -6.5, -6, -5, -3.5}

Using proportions, it is found that the height of the lighthouse is of 84 ft.

This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.For a height of 5.25 feet, the shadow is of 8 feet. What is the height when the shadow is of 128 feet?

The rule of three is:

5.25 feet - 8 feet

x feet - 128 feet

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]8x = 5.25(128)[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{5.25(128)}{8}[/tex]

A radar gun measured the speed of a baseball at 92 miles per hour.

If the baseball was actually going 90.3 miles per hour, what was the percent error in this measurement?

Answers

Answer:

subtract the actual measurement from the initial measurement

ie. 92-90.3 =1.7 %

You can calculate the error and then measure how much percent of the real value, the error came.

The percent error in the considered measurement is of approx 1.88%

How to calculate the percent error?

Suppose the actual value and the estimated values after the measurement are obtained. Then we have:

Error = Actual value - Estimated value

To calculate percent error, we will measure how much percent of actual value, the error is, in the estimated value.

[tex]\text{Percent error} = |\dfrac{Error}{\text{Actual value}}| \times 100 = |\dfrac{\text{(Actual value - Estimated value)} }{\text{Actual value}}| \times 100[/tex]

Sine in the given condition, we have:

Actual measurement = 90.3 miles per hourEstimated measurement = 92 miles per hour

Thus, we have

Error = 90.3 - 92 = -1.7 miles per hour

Thus, the percent error is calculated as:

[tex]\text{Percent error} = |\dfrac{-1.7 }{90.3}|\times 100 = \dfrac{1.7 \times 100}{90.3} = \dfrac{170}{90.3} \approx 1.88\%[/tex]

Thus,

The percent error in the considered measurement is of approx 1.88%

Step 1: Add 3 to both sides because you want to cancel out the 3 so you do the opposite of what is say's. For example, if it says 2y-3 add 3 or 2y+3 subtract 3 from both sides.

Step 2: Add 3 to -5 which would be -2

Step 3: Since you're "multiplying" Y to 2 you're going to divide 2 to get Y by itself. So 2/2 cancels out and now you're left with y
