The student did not switch both instances of x with y. He should have written x = y2 + 12y.He wrote only the principal square root instead of using the ± sign.The domain is incorrect. For the radicand to be greater than or equal to zero, x must be less than or equal to zero. It should be x < 0.

The first error was made when the variables were changed, the x in 12x was not changed to y.
The second error was when the square root of -11x was taken, for -11x to be positive x should be less than 0 not greater or equal to 0.

Mean of four numbers a ,b, c, and d is 8 and mean of seven

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

17 1/3 or 17.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of four numbers a, b, c, and d is 8:

(a + b + c + d)/4 = 8
⇒ a + b + c + d = 32

Mean of seven numbers x, y, z, a, b, c and d is 12:

(x + y + z + a + b + c + d)/7 = 12

Substitute the sum of 4 numbers:

x + y + z + 32 = 7*12
x + y + z = 84 - 32
x + y + z = 52

Mean of x, y and z is:

52/3 = 17 1/3 or 17.33

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?

Natasha2012 [34]

Both A and C would be solutions to the equation.

In order to solve for this you must first get the equation equal to 0.

2x^2+5x+8=6 ----> subtract 6 from both sides
2x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0

Now knowing this we can use the coefficients of each one in descending order of power as a, b and c.

a = 2 (because it is the coefficient to x^2)
b = 5 (because it is the coefficient to x)
c = 2 (because it is the end number)

Now we can plug these values into the quadratic equation.

$\frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

$\frac{-5 +/- \sqrt{5^{2} - 4(2)(2) } }{2(2)}$

$\frac{-5 +/- \sqrt{9} }{4}$

$\frac{-5 +/- 3 }{4}$

$\frac{-5 + 3 }{4}$ or -1/2 for the first answer

$\frac{-5 - 3 }{4}$ or -2 for the second answer
