The following steps of solving for the roots of 2x² - 4x -3 = 0 were retrieved from another source Step 1 2x² - 4x = 3 Step 2 2(x² - 2x) = 3 Step 3 2(x² - 2x + 1) = 3 + 1 Step 4 2(x - 1)² = 4 From this, we can see that on Step 3, Tran made a mistake of adding 1 to 3. As we can see, 2(x² - 2x + 1) = 2x² - 4x + 2. That means, instead of adding 1, it should have been 2. Therefore, the step that Tran first made an error is Step 3<span>.</span>

Which is an equation of a circle with center (2, -1) that passes through the point (3, 4)?
iren2701 [21]
Equation of circle is (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2; where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius.
r^2 = (2 - 3)^2 + (-1 - 4)^2 = (-1)^2 + (-5)^2 = 1 + 25 = 26
Equation is (x - 2)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 26

Find the measure of the indicated angle
Margarita [4]

Answer:

the unknown angle is 88°

Step-by-step explanation:

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles. Therefore, in the tall triangle, 60 + 40 = 100, meaning the bottom left angle in the small triangle is 100-64=36. And b/c angle sum of a triangle is 180°, 180-36-56=88°

The length of a rectangle is 2 units more than the width. The area of the rectangle is 48 units. What is the width, in units, of
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lw

l = w + 2

48 = lw

48 = (w + 2)w

48 = w² + 2w

0 = w² + 2w - 48

Quadratic equation results =

w = 6 or w = -8

But the measure could not be negative, therefore w = 6
