The correct answer is a) Amy's solutions are correct.

Since she wanted the intersection point of the equations, she had to set them equal.  Once she did she had

x²+3x-5=4x+1

Gathering the variables on one side of the equation, she subtracted 4x from each side:
x²+3x-5-4x=4x+1-4x
x²-x-5=1

Quadratics should be equal to 0 when we solve them, so she subtracted 1 from each side:
x²-x-5-1=1-1
x²-x-6=0

She then factored her expression; factors of -6 that sum to -1 are -3 and 2:
(x-3)(x+2)=0

Using the zero product property we know that either x-3=0 or x+2=0; therefore x=3 or x=-2.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

x=-\frac{19}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4=-15

3x+4-4=-15-4

3x=-19

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{-19}{3}

x=-\frac{19}{3}

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ounces of

A = x

B = y

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 55% salt. She wants to obtain 90 ounces of a mixture that is 45% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?

Our system of equations is given as

x + y = 90.... Equation 1

x = 90 - y

40% × x + 55% × y = 45% × 90 ounces

0.4x + 0.55y = 40.5....Equation 2

We substitute 90 - y for x in Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing by a fraction flip it over and multiply

2 / (1/3) = 2 * 3/1

2 / (1/3) = 6/1

2 / (1/3) = 6

Find the expansion of cos x about the point x=0
ycow [4]

Answer:

Cos x = 1 - \frac{x^2}{2!} + \frac{x^4}{4!} - \frac{x^6}{1!} + ...

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Taylor series expansion to answer this question.

We have to find the expansion of cos x at x = 0

f(x) = cos x, f'(x) = -sin x, f''(x) = -cos x, f'''(x) = sin x, f''''(x) = cos x

Now we evaluate them at x = 0.

f(0) = 1, f'(0) = 0, f''(0) = -1, f'''(0) = 0, f''''(0) = 1

Now, by Taylor series expansion we have

f(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x-a) + \frac{f''(a)(x-a)^2}{2!} + \frac{f'''(a)(x-a)^3}{3!} + \frac{f''''(a)(x-a)^4}{4!} + ...

Putting a = 0 and all the values from above in the expansion, we get,

Cos x = 1 - \frac{x^2}{2!} + \frac{x^4}{4!} - \frac{x^6}{1!} + ...
