Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square. F(x) = 4x2 8x 1 –1 = 4x2 8x –1 = 4(x2 2x)

Ymorist [56]

By solving the quadratic equation using completing the square method we got that Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.

<h3>What is quadratic equation ?</h3>

Any equation of the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called quadratic equation .

Given work of Penelope is

$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=4 x^{2}+8 x+1 \\&-1=4 x^{2}+8 x \\&-1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x\right) \\&-1+1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x+1\right) \\&0=4(x+2)^{2} \\&0=(x+2)^{2} \\&0=x+2 \\&-2=x\end{aligned}$

Now we can see that Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square. so he must have been done as following

$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=4 x^{2}+8 x+1 \\&-1=4 x^{2}+8 x \\&-1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x\right) \\&-1+4=4\left(x^{2}+2 x+1\right) \\&3=4(x+2)^{2} \\&\frac{3}{4} =x+2)^{2} \\&\frac{\pm\sqrt3}{2} =x+2 \\&\frac{-2\pm\sqrt3}{2} =x\end{aligned}$

By solving the quadratic equation using completing the square method we got that Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.

Write an equation for the sentence "The product of a number n and 7.7 equals 112.42." Solve for the variable.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

$7.7n=112.42$

$n=14.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

The product is the result obtained by multiplying two factors. Then, the sentence ""The product of a number n and 7.7 equals 112.42" can be expressed with the following equation:

$7.7n=112.42$

To solve for the variable "n", you has two apply the Division property of equality and divide both sides of the equation by 7.7

Therefore, the value of "n" is:

$\frac{7.7n}{7.7}=\frac{112.42}{7.7}\\\\n=14.6$

In the first diagram the value of k is 10 and in the second diagram the value of k is 15/2.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

The triangle can be defined as a three-sided polygon in geometry, and it consists of three vertices and three edges. The sum of all the angles inside the triangle is 180°.

In the first diagram:

The sum of the 5k + 20 and 7k + 40 is 180

5k + 20 + 7k + 40 = 180

12k + 60 = 180

12k = 180 -60

12k = 120

k = 10

In the second diagram:

The sum of the two interior angles is equal to the exterior angle.

40 + 12k + 10 = 8k + 80

4k = 30

k = 30/4 = 15/2

Thus, in the first diagram the value of k is 10 and in the second diagram the value of k is 15/2.
