Answer 1

If only there were a problem statement. It would be even better if you showed any work!

Answer 2

it says Given the following perfect square trinomial, fill in the missing term and i just plain dont understand these

Answer 3

You must exploit this idea: \((a+b)^{2} = a^{2} + 2ab + b^{2}\)

If you are given \(2ab\), how do you find \(b^{2}\)?

Answer 4

find the difference between what would be needed to make 2ab + a^2 equal to the left side of the equal sign?

Answer 5

(-16)/2 = 8
8^2 = 64

x2 − 16x + 64 = (x-8)^2
