Show all work. What are the zeros of the function? f(x) = 2x^2 − 8x − 10

1 answer:

3 0

(2x² - 8x - 10) ÷ 2 = 0
x² - 4x - 5 = 0
x² + x - 5x - 5 = 0
x(x+1) - 5(x+1) = 0
(x+1)(x-5) = 0
x+1 = 0 or x-5 = 0
x = -1 or x= 5

S = {-1;5}

Katy uses 1 8/9 bags of chocolate chips in one batch of cupcakes. if she has 3 11/12 bags of chocolate chips left, about how man

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

1 (8/9) = 1.88888888
3 (11/12) = 3.9166666667 


3.91666 / 1.8888 = 2.0735294118 

So, she can make 2 batches of cupcakes.

Simplify the following expression. A. B. C. D.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by crossing everything out!

12/3 can be crossed out to 4.

a^3/a^2 can be crossed out to a.

b^6/b^4 can be crossed out into b^2.

c^5/c^5 is just 1.

So which the results we got, we can multiply them, so that it is 4ab^2.

4ab^2 is our final answer!

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!

EleoNora [17]

Part 1:

$(x+1)^2-3(x+2) \\ \\ =x^2+2x+1-3x-6 \\ \\ =x^2-x-5$

option b.

Part 2:
$(5x^3y^{-3})(-6x^4y)\\ \\=5(-6)x^{3+4}y^{-3+1}\\ \\=-30x^7y^{-2}\\ \\=\frac{-30x^7}{y^2}$

option d

Part 3:
$\frac{8+x}{2} - \frac{x+3}{3} =4$

Multiply through by the LCM of 2 and 3 (i.e. 6)
$6\left(\frac{8+x}{2}\right) - 6\left(\frac{x+3}{3}\right) =6(4) \\ \\ 3(8+x)-2(x+3)=24 \\ \\ 24+3x-2x-6=24 \\ \\ x+18=24 \\ \\ x=24-18=6$

option b

Part 4
x^2-3x-8=x+4

$x^2-3x-8=x+4 \\ \\ x^2-3x-x-8-4=0 \\ \\ x^2-4x-12=0 \\ \\ (x-6)(x+2)=0 \\ \\ x=6 \ or \ -2$

option d

Part 5
Joseph is solving the equation x^2+8x-4=0 using the technique completing the square.
x^2+8x-4=0
x^2+8x+?=4+?

In completeing the square method, you divide the coeficient of x by 2, square the result and add to both sides of the equation.

Therefore, he should add 16 to both sides because (8/2)^2=16.

option d.
