Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Susu is solving the quadratic equation 4x^2 - 8x - 13 = 0 by completing the square

To apply completing the square method we need to get x^2 alone

Susu added 13 on both sides . So step 1 is correct

When we factor out 4, we divide both terms by 4

4(\frac{4x^2}{4} -\frac{8x}{2} )=13

4(x^2-2x)=13

Susu forgot to divide 8 by 4

So , error in step 2

Answer:

Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

when solving by completing the square you are supposed to do (b/2)^2 and then add that to both sides.

In your example (-8/2)^2=16

You are supposed to add sixteen to both sides not 64

Susu forgot to divide 8 by 2 before she raised it to the to the second powerm that is why she got 64, which is incorrect.

Answer:

110

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the expansion

(a + b)³ = a³ + b³ + 3ab(a + b)

Given

x + \frac{1}{x} = 5 ( cube both sides )

(x + \frac{1}{x} )³ = 5³ = 125 ← expand left side using identity

x³ + \frac{1}{x^3} + 3(x × \frac{1}{x} )(x + \frac{1}{x} ) = 125

x³ + \frac{1}{x^3} + 3(1)(5) = 125

x³ + \frac{1}{x^3} + 15 = 125 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

x³ + \frac{1}{x^3} = 110

Harry used 84% of the money in his savings account to buy a used dirt bike that cost him $1,050. How much money is left in Harry
alexira [117]
So 84%=1050
what is left is 100%-84%=16%
equal ratios
1050 to 84=x to 16
1050:84=x:16
fractionify
1050/84=x/16
multiply both sides
by 16
16800/84=x
simplify
200=x
answer is 200 is left

PLEASE HELP!!
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

From the given graph:

the coordinates of triangle RST are;

R= (2, 1),

S= (2,-2),

T= (-1,-2)

Given: Scale factor = \frac{5}{3}  and center of dilation at (2,2)

The mapping rule for the  dilation applied to the triangle as shown below:    

(x,y) \rightarrow (\frac{5}{3}(x-2)+2 , \frac{5}{3}(y-2)+2 ); where k represents the scale factor i.e, k=\frac{5}{3} or we can write it as ;  

For R=(2, 1)      

The image R' = (\frac{5}{3}(2-2)+2 , \frac{5}{3}(1-2)+2 )

⇒ R'= (2, \frac{1}{3})  

Similarly for S= (2, -2) and T= (-1,-2)

therefore, the image of S'= (\frac{5}{3}(2-2)+2 , \frac{5}{3}(-2-2)+2 )

⇒ S'= (2, \frac{-14}{3})

The image of T' =(\frac{5}{3}(-1-2)+2 , \frac{5}{3}(-2-2)+2 )

⇒T' = (-3, \frac{-14}{3})

Now, labelling the image of triangle R'S'T' as shown in the figure given below

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

RATE = S.I*100/R*T

SI= 110.44 bucks

Principal=2008 bucks

Time=6 months

So, RATE= 110.44*100

---------------

2008*6

=33%, answer.
