The first few steps in solving the quadratic equation 5x2 + 27x = 14 − 13x by completing the square are shown. 5x2 + 27x = 14 − 13x 5x2 + 40x = 14 5(x2 + 8x) = 14 which is the best step to do next to solve the equation by completing the square: 5(x2 + 8x + 16) = 30 5(x2 + 8x + 16) = 94 5(x2 + 8x + 4) = 18 5(x2 + 8x + 4) = 34

we have

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

Factor the leading coefficient

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

therefore

the answer is the option

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380

hope it *im kind of slow so idk if my answer is right*
