Answer:
Step 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Meredith made a fatal mistake or error in step 2;
Any quadratic problem will always have two solutions. Therefore since, we only have one solution here, it is wrong. The mistake was incurred in step 2;
From the given problem ;
<u> Wrong right</u>
2(x + 4)² = 242
(x + 4)² = 121 Step 1
x+4=11 Step 2 x + 4 = ± 11
x = 7 Step 3 x + 4 = 11 or x + 4 = -11
x = 11- 4 or x = -11 - 4
x = 7 or -15
The difference in gallons per day used is 3.6.
The formula to calculate a z-score is:
,
where X is the value used to calculate the score, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation. We have the z-scores so we must work backward:
For both equations, we will cancel the 1.2 by multiplying both sides:
Now we will cancel 2.2 from both equations by adding it to both sides:
3.6+2.2=X-2.2+2.2 and 0+2.2=X-2.2+2.2
5.8=X and 2.2=X
The difference in gas used per day would be given by
5.8-2.2 = 3.6.
Let’s simply step-by-step.
-9+1/4x-6-1/8x
=-9+1/4x+-6+-1/8 x
COMBINE LIKE TERMS:
=-9+1/4 x + -6 + -1/8 x
=(1/4 x + -1/8 x) + (-9+-6)
Answer
=1/8x -15
The correct answer is <span>1 and 1/2
Hope I helped</span>
What you want to do is find the comon demominator and than go from rhere pluse you should be able to go and look back at the lesson if you dont get ut well its like that for me
