Can someone please explain why this is incorrect? Isn’t (2x+5)(x+1) the same as (x+1)(2x+5)?

Answer:

2(2x+5) (x+1) = 2(x+1)(2x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2 +14x+10

Factor out the 2

2(2x^2 +7x+5)

2(2x+5) (x+1)

You need to keep the 2 that you factored out

2(2x+5) (x+1) = 2(x+1)(2x+5) by the Commutative Property of Multiplication

What is the sum of the first 12 terms of the geometric series below 1/2+2+8+32+

Georgia [21]

∴ $\frac{1}{2} +2+8+32.......12^{th}term$ =2796202.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First term(a) = $\frac{1}{2}$ common ratio(r) = $\frac{2}{\frac{1}{2} }$ =4

n= 12

$S_{n}=\frac{a(r^n-1)}{(r-1)}$

$S_{12}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}(4^{12}-1) }{4-1}$ =2796202.5

∴ $\frac{1}{2} +2+8+32.......12^{th}term$ =2796202.5

Answer; c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c = 17 inches

a = 8 inches

b^2 = c^2 – a^2

b^2 = 17^2 – 8^2

b^2 = 289 – 64

b^2 = 225

b = square root of 225

b = 15 inches ≈ c.
