Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 8x² + 10x - 7 = 0
<u>When factoring trinomials of the form ax² + bx + c</u>:
- multiply the leading coefficient and the last term.
- find the product factors that add to give you the coefficient of the middle term.
- rewrite the polynomial with those factors replacing the middle term.
1. Split the middle term:
⇒ 8 × -7 = -56 [multiply the leading coefficient and the last term]
⇒ 14, -4 [find the product factors that add to the middle term's coefficient]
⇒ 8x² + 14x - 4x - 7 = 0 [rewrite with those factors replacing the middle term.]
2. Factor by grouping:
⇒ 8x² + 14x - 4x - 7 = 0 [factor out 2x]
⇒ 2x(4x + 7) - 4x - 7 = 0 [factor out -1 or the negative sign]
⇒ 2x(4x + 7) -1(4x + 7) = 0 [factor out 4x + 7]
⟹ (4x + 7)(2x - 1) = 0
3. Separate into 2 cases:
- 4x + 7 = 0
- 2x - 1 = 0
<u><em>Case 1:</em></u>
⇒ 4x + 7 = 0 [subtract 7 from both sides]
⇒ 4x + 7 - 7 = 0 - 7
⇒ 4x = -7 [divide both sides by 4]
⇒ 4x ÷ 4 = -7 ÷ 4
⟹ x = 
<u><em>Case 2:</em></u>
⇒ 2x - 1 = 0 [subtract 1 from both sides]
⇒ 2x - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1
⇒ 2x = 1 [divide both sides by 2]
⇒ 2x ÷ 2 = 1 ÷ 2
⟹ x =

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)
<h3>What is the equation of the ellipse associated with the coordinates of the foci?</h3>
By <em>analytical</em> geometry we know that foci are along the <em>major</em> axis of ellipses and beside the statement we find that such axis is parallel to the x-axis of Cartesian plane. Then, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the ellipse is of the following form:
(x - h)² / a² + (y - k)² / b² = 1, where a > b (1)
Where:
- a - Length of the major semiaxis.
- b - Length of the minor semiaxis.
Now, we proceed to find the vertex and the lengths of the semiaxes:
a = 10 units.
b = 8 units.
Vertex
V(x, y) = 0.5 · F₁(x, y) + 0.5 · F₂(x, y)
V(x, y) = 0.5 · (3, 2) + 0.5 · (- 9, 2)
V(x, y) = (1.5, 1) + (- 4.5, 1)
V(x, y) = (- 3, 2)
The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

The first step to determine the percentage of increase is to
compute for the difference of consumer price index in value.
231.11 (consumer price index for 2012) – 211.4 (consumer
price index for 2007) = 19.71 (increase)
To compute for the percentage of increase, you need to
compare the increase to the consumer price index for 2007.
19.71/211.4 = 9.3% increase
