Some of the steps in the derivation of the quadratic formula are shown. Step 3: –c + StartFraction b squared Over 4 a EndFraction = a(x squared + StartFraction b Over a EndFraction x + StartFraction b squared Over 4 a squared EndFraction)

Step 4a: –c + StartFraction b squared Over 4 a EndFraction = a(x + StartFraction b Over 2 a EndFraction) squared

Step 4b: negative StartFraction 4 a c Over 4 a EndFraction + StartFraction b squared Over 4 a EndFraction = a(x + StartFraction b Over 2 a EndFraction) squared

Which best explains or justifies Step 4b?

step-by-step explanation:

3, 12, 48, 384, 1536, 6144, 24576, 98304

step-by-step explanation:

just keep timing it by 4.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
