Capitolo 2, Problema 45
In Exercises 35–46, determine the constant that should be added to the binomial so that it becomes a perfect square trinomial. Then write and factor the trinomial.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the coefficient of the linear term in the binomial. Here, the binomial is \(x^2 - \frac{1}{3}x\), so the coefficient of \(x\) is \(-\frac{1}{3}\).
To complete the square, take half of the coefficient of \(x\). Calculate \(\frac{1}{2} \times \left(-\frac{1}{3}\right) = -\frac{1}{6}\).
Square the result from the previous step to find the constant to add: \(\left(-\frac{1}{6}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{36}\).
Add this constant to the original binomial to form the perfect square trinomial: \(x^2 - \frac{1}{3}x + \frac{1}{36}\).
Write the trinomial as a squared binomial using the value found in step 2: \(\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2\).

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Perfect Square Trinomial
A perfect square trinomial is a quadratic expression that can be factored into the square of a binomial, typically in the form (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2. Recognizing this form helps in rewriting and factoring quadratics efficiently.

Completing the Square
Completing the square involves adding a constant to a quadratic expression to form a perfect square trinomial. This constant is found by taking half the coefficient of the linear term, squaring it, and adding it to the expression.
