enelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square. f(x) = 4x2 + 8x + 1 –1 = 4x2 + 8x –1 = 4(x2
Marat540 [252]
The correct question is
<span>Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square.
f(x) = 4x² + 8x + 1
–1 = 4x² + 8x
–1 = 4(x² + 2x)
–1 + 1 = 4(x² + 2x + 1)
0 = 4(x + 2)²
0 = (x + 2)²
0 = x + 2
–2 = x
What error did Penelope make in her work?

we have that
</span>f(x) = 4x² + 8x + 1
to find the solutions of the quadratic function
let
f(x)=0
 4x² + 8x + 1=0

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

 (4x² + 8x)=-1

Factor the leading coefficient 

 4*(x² + 2x)=-1

Complete the square Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

 4*(x² + 2x+1)=-1+4 --------> ( added 4 to both sides)

Rewrite as perfect squares

4*(x+1)²=3

(x+1)²=3/4--------> (+/-)[x+1]=√3/2

(+)[x+1]=√3/2---> x1=(√3/2)-1----> x1=(√3-2)/2

(-)[x+1]=√3/2----> x2=(-2-√3)/2

therefore

the answer is

<span>Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.</span>

Volume of Spheres
Oliga [24]
It’s simple. The volume of a sphere is V=4/3πr^3.. so you will convert the mm to m okay?? 10mm=1cm .. so do your conversion from here then when you get the radius then you will substitute it into the volume where r is the radius.. so for the first one l changed mm to cm so.. radius is 4cm then l substitute it into the formula so l got 270 after rounding it to the nearest tenth.. pi=22/7 bear in mind. So do the same for the other one

1. What is the slope of the line tangent to the curve defined by y2 + xy - x2 = 11x at the point (2, 3)?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Implicit Differentiation,

d/dx (y² + xy - x²) = d/dx (11x)

d/dx (y²) + d/dx (xy) - d/dx (x²) = 11

2y * dy/dx + x * dy/dx + y - 2x = 11

dy/dx (2y + x) = 11 + 2x - y

dy/dx = (11 + 2x - y) / (2y + x).

At the point (2, 3), we have x = 2, y = 3.

=> dy/dx = (11 + 2(2) - (3)) / (2(3) + (2))

= 12 / 8 = 1.5.

P.S. Your question is weird because (2,3) is not on the graph, let me know what is the correct question thanks!
