What is the geometrical proof of a-b whole square?
Given the graphic capability of this site, you are going to have to use some imagination! <---------a---------> <---a-b---><--b--> +-----------+-------+ |...............|..........| |.......P......|....Q...| |...............|..........| +-----------+-------+ |.......R......|....S....| |...............|..........| +-----------+-------+ In the above graphic, P, S and the whole figure are meant to be squares. The total area is P+Q+R+S = a2 P = (a-b)2 Q = b*(a-b) = (a-b)*b = a*b - b2 R = (a-b)*b = a*b = a*b - b2 and S = b2 Now, P = {P+Q+R+S} - Q - R - S = a2 - ab + b2 - ab + b2 - b2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
What is the answer for b2 plus 16b plus 64?
b2 + 16b + 64 can be factorized to (b+8)(b+8). If they were equal to zero as in b2 + 16b + 64=0 then b = -8.
What is b2-2b plus 3b-6?
The equation (b2 - 2b) + (3b - 6) = b2 + b - 6
What is a x squared plus b x plus c equals 0?
x = (-b (+/-) root( b2 - 4ac)) / 2a Sorry about the messy answer, there are no square root symbols or plus-minus symbols. Here is the proof - ax2 + bx + c = 0 --------> multiply by 4a 4a2x2 + 4abx + 4ac = 0 4a2x2 + 4abx = -4ac ----------> add b2 to both sides 4a2x2 + 4abx + b2 = b2 - 4ac -----------> factorise LHS (2ax + b)2 = b2 - 4ac 2ax + b = (+/-) root( b2 - 4ac) 2ax = -b (+/-) root( b2 - 4ac) x = (-b (+/-) root( b2 - 4ac)) / 2a Maths works people.
What is the GCF of ba and b?
The GCF of ba and b is b. That factors to b(a - 1)
