Madeline was completing the square, and her work is shown below. Identify the line where she made her mistake. f(x) = 3x2 + 6x −

7 Line 1: f(x) = 3(x2 + 2x) − 7 Line 2: f(x) = 3(x2 + 2x + 1) − 7 − 1 Line 3: f(x) = 3(x + 1)2 − 8

Answer:

Madeline made a mistake in LINE 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f(x) = 3x² + 6x − 7

Line 1: f(x) = 3(x² + 2x) − 7

Line 2: f(x) = 3(x² + 2x + 1 - 1) - 7

                 = 3(x²+2x+1)  -7 - 3

But Madeline wrote it 3(x² + 2x + 1) − 7 − 1

So, she made a mistake here

Line 3: f(x) = 3(x + 1)² − 10

So, Madeline made a mistake in LINE 2 and because of this LINE 3 was also wrong

In line two, Madlime added positive one in the bracket, but subtracted one outside of the bracket without considering the factor outside of the bracket. Therefore, line 2 should be f(x)=3(x2+2x+1-1)-7
Line 3: f(x)=3(x+1)2-7-3
Line 4: f(x)=3(x+1)2-10

What is the answer to this equation?<br> 1/2 (4i+8)=-2
Flauer [41]

Answer:

If your looking for I the answer is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are between 90 and 115 cars in a parking lot. Exactly one-fourth of them are green. Exactly one-eighth of them have a stic
Schach [20]

There are 104 cars in the parking lot.

According to statement there are between 90 and 115 cars on the lot.

So, {X| 90 < x < 115} (This renders an infinite solution set finite)

AND exactly one eight of them have a sticker on the back, so the total number of cars must be evenly divisible by eight.

X ∈ {96, 104, 112,}

AND exactly one fourth of the cars are green, so the number of cars must be evenly divisible by 4. Here all above written numbers are divisible by 4. So, find the mean to calculate the number of cars in the parking lot.

x = (96+104+112)/3

x = 104

There are 104 cars in the parking lot.

Anyone think they could help me with this question???
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see the triangles are congruent so

< F = < C ( being corresponding angles of congruent triangle)

< C = 29

Now

<A +<B + <C = 180° { being sum of angles of triangle }

5x + 1 + 90 + 29 = 180°

5x = 180° - 120°

5x = 60°

x = 12°

<A = 5 * 12° + 1 = 61°

Hope it will help :)
