What is the intermediate step in the form (x + a)2 = b as a result of completing the square for the following equation?
5x2 – 168 = -60x + 12

Find the constant of variation for the relation and use it to write an equation for the statement. then solve the equation.

How can you tell when x and y are not directly proportional?

Consider this equation. |y + 6| = 2 what can be concluded of the equation? check all that apply. there will be one solution. there will be two solutions. the solution to –(y + 6) = 2 will be also be a solution to the given absolute value equation. the solution(s) will be the number(s) on the number line 2 units away from –6. the value of y must be positive since the variable is inside absolute value signs.
