Isoke is solving the quadratic equation by completing the square. 10x2 + 40x – 13 = 0 10x2 + 40x = 13 A(x2 + 4x) = 13 What is the value of A?
Answer:
A = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given that : A quadratic equation \(10x^2+40x-13=0\)
another equation \(A(x^2+4x)=13\)
To find: The value of A
Solution: Taking the quadratic equation \(10x^2+40x-13=0\)
and try to reduce this equation in form of another equation
\(10x^2+40x-13=0\) ⇒ \(10(x^2+4x)=13\)
Comparing with another equation \(A(x^2+4x)=13\)
we get that 10 takes the place of A
which implies value of A = 10
