<span>1. Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x - 14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.

Answer: 5x^2 -3x  -14

Explanation:

You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.

I will show  you how to factor that polynomial from zero:

1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14

2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>

5 [5x^2 - 3x  -14 ]
----------------------
         5

3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:

5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
              5

4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms

(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
              5

5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:

(5x  ) ( 5x   ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7)  <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is  - 70

=>

(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
         5

6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2

7) factored expression

(x - 2) (5x + 7)

8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)


2. Question 2.  The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 + 7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring

Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Explanation:

The procedure is the same of the question 1.

1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20

2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>

(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
              6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:

(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)

=>

(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
           6

(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
        3.2

(6x + 15)      (6x - 8)
------------- .  ------------ =
      3                2

(2x + 5)(3x - 4)

4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Rewrite the equation by completing the square.<br> 4x2 + 28x + 49 = 0<br> (x+) =
Vlada [557]

Answer: x = - 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation by completing the square.

4x2 + 28x + 49 = 0

Completing the square method :

Divide through by the Coefficient of x^2

x^2 + 7x + (49/4) = 0

a = 1, b = 7, c = 49/4

Move c to the right side of the equation

x^2 + 7x = - 49/4

Complete the square on the left hand side by squaring its half of the x term

(7/2)^2 = (49/4)

Add the output to both sides of the equation

x^2 + 7x + (49/4) = - (49/4) + (49/4)

(x + 7/2)^2 = 0

Square root of both sides

x + 7/2 = 0

x = - 7/2

x = - 3.5

Find the x-intercept of the parabola with vertex (1,-13) and y-intercept (0,-11).
Advocard [28]
1. find equation

general solutions are:
y = a x^{2} +bx +c \\ \\ \frac{dy}{dx} = 2ax +b

for P(0,-11)

-11 = 0a + 0b +c ⇒c = -11

for p(1,-13)
-13 = 1a + 1b -11 \\ a+b = -2

and

0 = 2a + b \\ b = -2a

solve for a and b:
a - 2a = -2 \\ a = 2 \\ b = -4

the total equation is now:

y = 2 x^{2} -4x -11

To find the x-intercept set y=0 and solve for x

0 = 2 x^{2} -4x-11
