Eloise started to solve a radical equation in this way: Square root of negative 2x plus 1 − 3 = x Square root of negative 2x plu

s 1 − 3 + 3 = x + 3 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 = x + 3 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 − 1 = x + 3 − 1 Square root of negative 2 x = x + 2 ( Square root of negative 2 x )2 = (x − 4)2 −2x = x2 − 8x + 16 −2x + 2x = x2 + 8x + 16 + 2x 0 = x2 + 10x + 16 0 = (x + 2)(x + 8) x + 2 = 0 x + 8 = 0 x + 2 − 2 = 0 − 2 x + 8 − 8 = 0 − 8 x = −2 x = −8 Both solutions are extraneous because they don't satisfy the original equation. What error did Eloise make?

She kept the + 3 on the right side of the equation in her second step, she forgot to eliminate it..... there fore, it would have been -2x + 1 = x + 3 not -2x + 1 - 3 +3 = x+3

What are the square roots of 100? Check all that apply.
Helga [31]
There are three options which are the square roots of 100, and those are C. -10, D. 10, and F. |10|
C: (-10)^2 = -10 * -10 = 100 (- * - = +)
D: 10 * 10 = 100
F: |10| = 10, and 10 * 10 = 100 (these brackets make a negative number positive, and a positive number stays positive)

slamgirl [31]

Answer:The total number of hours worked in the week is 46. The hourly pay would be 40(14) + 6(21) = $686 per week. The annual earnings are 52(686) = $35,672. The salary pay is more than the hourly pay based on the typical hours worked each week given in the table. Therefore, the employee would probably want to choose the salaried pay.
