1. One solution of al-Khwarizmi Solve + 12x = 85 by drawing the square shown. The area of the four white rectangles and the yellow square is r + 12x . We then set this expression equal to 85 to get the equ r² + 12r = 85. If we add the four blue squares, we will have a larger square of known area. Complete the solution. 3 3 Area = x? Area = 3x each with its own rule. Thomas Harriot (1560-1621) introduced the method of factoring to obtain solutions, and François Viète (1540 – 1603) introduced a method that is essentially completing the square.

Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
