Answer:

-3 +2y \leq 4x

2y \leq 4x+3

y \leq 2x + \frac{3}{2}

And that's different from the claim of the student that:

y \geq 2x +\frac{3}{2}

The error of the student is that he/she changes the sign of the inequality from \leq to \geq and that's not possible since we don't multiply both sides of the equation by -1

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following inequality:

-3 +2y \leq 4x

We want to rewrite the last expression with y in the left and x in the right so we can begin adding 3 in both sides of the inequality and we got:

2y \leq 4x+3

Now we can divide both sides of the inequality by 2 and we got:

y \leq 2x + \frac{3}{2}

And that's different from the claim of the student that:

y \geq 2x +\frac{3}{2}

The error of the student is that he/she changes the sign of the inequality from \leq to \geq and that's not possible since we don't multiply both sides of the equation by -1

25-20x+4x² heh help pls and hurry :((
yulyashka [42]
25- 20x + 4x^2
=4x^2 - 20x + 25
=4x^2 - x(10+10) +25
=4x^2 - 10x - 10x + 25
=2x(2x - 5) - 5( 2x - 5)
=(2x - 5)(2x - 5)
=(2x - 5)^2
