1.  Factoring a quadratic expression ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 1, is different from factoring x2 + bx + c because for the former type of expression you have to factor out the value of "a". Then, proceed to the factoring steps as usual.

2. To confirm the equations to be equal with the parent function we do as follows:
<span> (2x – 4)(x + 5) = 2x^2 + 10x - 4x - 20 = 2x^2 + 6x -20
</span><span>(x – 2)(2x + 10) = 2x^2 +10x - 4x -20 = 2x^2 +6x - 20

3. The roots of the quadratic expression represents the values of x that would satisfy the expression. The x-intercepts are the values of x when y is equal to zero, it is where the plot touches intersects the x-axis.</span>

Answer:

1. Dividing the expressions ax^2+bx+c by a is a different step.

2. Yes, both of these factorization are correct. They are not complete because they can be factored further.

3. The roots of the related quadratic equation are the x-intercepts of of the related function and factors of the expression are difference of x and roots of the related quadratic equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

To factorize the quadratic expressions ax^2+bx+c first we divide it by a. Then we factorize it same as x^2+bx+c.

It means all the steps of factoring a quadratic expressions ax^2+bx+c and x^2+bx+c are same except the first step, i.e., divide the expressions ax^2+bx+c by a.

2.

The given quadratic expression is

P(x)=2x^2+6x-20

(2x-4)(x+5)=2x(x+5)-4(x+5)\Rightarrow 2x^2+10x-4x-20=2x^2+6x-20=P(x)

(x-2)(2x+10)=x(2x+10)-2(2x+10)\Rightarrow 2x^2+10x-4x-20=2x^2+6x-20=P(x)

The product of factors is equal to the given expression. It means both of these factorization are correct.

They are not complete because they can be factored further.

(2x-4)(x+5)=2(x-2)(x+5)

(x-2)(2x+10)=(x-2)2(x+5)

3.

If the factored form of a quadratic expression is defined as

(x-a)(x-b)

Then the related quadratic equation is

(x-a)(x-b)=0

x=a,b

The roots of the quadratic equation are a and b.

The related function is

f(x)=(x-a)(x-b)

The x-intercepts of the function are a and b because at x=a and x=b the value of function is 0.

The roots of the related quadratic equation are the x-intercepts of of the related function and factors of the expression are difference of x and roots of the related quadratic equation.

Answer:

I see what's happening here

You're face to face with greatness

And it's strange

You don't even know how you feel

It's adorable

It's nice to see that humans never change

Open your eyes, let's begin

Yes it's really me, breathe it in

I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod

When you're staring at a demigod

So what can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

What can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

Honestly, I can go on and on

I could explain every natural phenomenon

The tide, the grass, the ground

Oh, that was me I was messing around

I killed a snake, I buried its guts

Sprouted a tree, now you've got coconuts

What's the lesson?

What is the takeaway?

Don't mess with Maui when he's on a breakaway

And the tapestry here in my skin

Is a map of the victories I win

Look where I've been, I make everything happen

Look at that mean mini Maui just tikkity tappin'

Singing and scratchin'

Flipping and snappin'

People are clappin', hearing me rappin'

And bring the chorus back in

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome

For the wonderful world you know

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

Well, come to think of it, I gotta go

Hey, it's your day to say

You're welcome

'Cause I'm gonna need that boat

I'm sailing away, away

You're welcome

'Cause Maui's the ultimate guy

You're welcome!

You're welcome!
