Step-by-step explanation:
First image attached
The error was done in Step E, because student did not multiply
by the negative sign in numerator. The real numerator in Step E should be:

Hence, Step E must be
.

The error was done in Step C, because the student omitted the
of the algebraic identity
. Step C must be 
And further steps are described below:
Step D

Which according to the Quadratic Formula, represents a polynomial with complex roots. That is: (
,
,
)


(Conjugated complex roots)
Step E

Step F

Circumference is found with the formula
c = pi × d
d is diameter and we will use 3.14 for pi.
The diameter is the measure across the center of the circle. In the first problem, you are given the radius, so we have to multiply by 2 to get the diameter. Then we can use the formula.
12.4 in × 2 = 24.8 in (that's the diameter)
c = pi × D
c = 3.14 × 24.8
c = 77.872 inches
circumference is 77.872 inches.
Try the other problems on your own. They are just like this one. Just make sure they are giving you the diameter and not the radius. Post if you have problems.
Answer:
The first plant produces 2x + 21 more items daily than the second plant.
Step-by-step explanation:
The daily production of the two plants are:
Plant 1: 5x + 14
Plant 2: 3x - 7
Compute the number of items first plant produces more than the second plant as follows:

Thus, the first plant produces 2x + 21 more items daily than the second plant.
T= 8/100 × $8.29
t= $66.32/100
t= $0.66 rounded to the nearest penny
