Answer:

Emanuel did a mistake in her first step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{4}{9}\right)\left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)

Emanuel solve this problem but she did a mistake in her first step. She distributes negative sign with 1 and 2 both which is incorrect. We can write negative sign with either 1 or 2 but not both.

Correct steps are:

Step 1:

\dfrac{(3)(4)(-1)}{(5)(9)(2)}

Step 2:

\dfrac{-12}{90}

Step 3:

-\dfrac{2}{15}

Therefore, she did a mistake in her first step.

There were 65 people waiting in two lines to buy a snowball ice drink they were joined in the line by 11 more people a total of
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

67 people were still left waiting in line.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 65 plus 11 more, there'd be 76 people in line.

I guess the fact that it says "waiting in two lines" can be completely discarded because bottom line is 9 people got their drinks- which means that "waiting in two lines" means nothing.

76 - 9 = 67 people still left waiting in line.

PLEASE HELP!! Compare & Contrast how Completing the Square is used to Convert a quadratic function to vertex form with how i
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a general quadratic formula given as ax²bx+c = 0

To generate the general formula to solve the quadratic equation, we can use the completing the square method as shown;

Step 1:

Bringing c to the other side

ax²+bx = -c

Dividing through by coefficient of x² which is 'a' will give:

x²+(b/a)x = -c/a

- Completing the square at the left hand side of the equation by adding the square of half the coefficient x i.e (b/2a)² and adding it to both sides of the equation we have:

x²+(b/a)x+(b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a + b²/4a²

- Taking the square root of both sides

√(x+b/2a)² = ±√-c/a + b²/√4a²

x+b/2a = ±√(-4ac+b²)/√4a²

x+b/2a =±√b²-4ac/2a

- Taking b/2a to the other side

x = -b/2a±√√b²-4ac/2a

Taking the LCM:

x = {-b±√b²-4ac}/2a

This gives the vertex form with how it is used to Solve a quadratic equation.
