QUESTION 1

Mathematics

Answer:

1)

1st Error: In going from Step 3 to Step 3.

Reason: Negative sign is not distributed inside the brackets.

2nd Error: In going from Step 5 to Step 6

Reason: Sign of the number is not changed while moving to other side of inequality,

2)

a) 12=-4(-6x-3) and x+5=-5x+5

b) -(7-4x)=9 and 5x+34=-2(1-7x) and -8=-(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

The given inequality is:

\frac{5}{12}-\frac{x-3}{6} \leq  \frac{x-2}{3}

<u>Step 1: Making the denominators common for all fractions</u>

\frac{5}{12}-\frac{2}{2} \times \frac{x-3}{6} \leq \frac{4}{4} \times \frac{x-2}{3}

This step is done correctly in the given solution.

<u>Step 2: Simplifying </u>

\frac{5}{12}-\frac{2x-6}{12}\leq \frac{4x-8}{12}

This step is done correctly in the given solution

<u>Step 3: Multiplying both sides by 12, and simplifying.</u>

5-(2x-6)\leq 4x-8\\\\ 5-2x+6\leq 4x-8

First error is made in this step. While opening the brackets, the negative sign should be distributed inside the bracket, which will change the signs.

<u>Step 4: Simplification:</u>

11-2x\leq 4x-8

<u>Step 5: Moving Common terms to one side and simplifying</u>

-2x-4x\leq -8-11\\\\ -6x\leq -19

Error was made in this step. When a number is moved to other side, its sign will be changed.

<u>Step 6: Dividing both sides by -6</u>

x\geq \frac{19}{6}

Conclusion:

1st Error: In going from Step 3 to Step 3.

Reason: Negative sign is not distributed inside the brackets.

2nd Error: In going from Step 5 to Step 6

Reason: Sign of the number is not changed while moving to other side of inequality,

Question 2:

In the Equation 2: 12=-4(-6x-3), when -4 will be multiplied inside the brackets, the 12 on eft hand side will cancel the 12 that will appear on right hand side, giving a result that will lead to x = 0.

Same is the case with Equation 6: x+5=-5x+5, 5 on both sides will cancel out leaving x = 0.

So, 2nd and 6th equations will have the same solution.

In Equation 1, on expanding the bracket and moving 7 to other side, we get a relation: 4x = 16

In Equation 3, on simplifying the right hand side, and carrying common terms to one side, we get the relation: - 9x = -36

In Equation 5, on expanding the bracket and simplifying the relation is reduced to 4 = x

It can be observed that all these 3 equations have the same solution i.e. x = 4

So, the following set of Equations have the same solution:

a) 12=-4(-6x-3) and x+5=-5x+5

b) -(7-4x)=9 and 5x+34=-2(1-7x) and -8=-(x+4)

Answer:

QUESTION 1

The first mathematical error occurred going from line <u>3</u> to line <u>4</u>.

Why it is incorrect: distributive property of multiplication is not well applied

-(2x-6) = -2x+6

The second mathematical error occurred going from line <u>5</u> to line <u>6</u>.

Why it is incorrect: the "-1" should had passed as "+1" from the left side to the right side of the inequality

-1-2x≤4x-8

-2x-4x≤-8+1

-6x≤-7

QUESTION 2

To answer this question we have to rewrite the equations in a similar way, as follows:

-(7-4x)=9

7-4x = -9

-4x+16=0 (eq. 1)

12=-4(-6x-3)

12=24x+12

0=24x (eq. 2)

5x+34=-2(1-7x)

5x+34=-2+14x

-9x+36 = 0 (eq. 3)

if you multiply equation 1 by 9/4, you get equation 3, then they have the same solution

14=-(x-8)

14=-x+8

x+6=0 (eq. 4)

-8=-(x+4)

-8=-x-4)

x-4 = 0 (eq. 5)

if you divide equation 1 by -4, you get equation 5, then they have the same solution

x+5=-5x+5

6x=0 (eq. 6)

if you divide equation 2 by 4, you get equation 6, then they have the same solution.

b.

5/12-(x-3)/6≤(x-2)/3

5/12-2/2*(x-3)/6≤4/4*(x-2)/3

5/12-(2x-6)/12≤(4x-8)/12

5-2x+6≤4x-8

11-2x≤4x-8

-6x≤-19

x≥19/6

Need help with these 3 questions (giving brainiest if you can answer with equations)
Tpy6a [65]

Problem 10

<h3>Answer: approximately 57.39159 km</h3>

Explanation: You'll use the equation cos(28) = d/65 to solve for d to get d = 65*cos(28) = 57.39159 approximately. We use the cosine ratio because it ties together the adjacent and hypotenuse.

=====================================

Problem 11

<h3>Answer: approximately 10.46162 meters </h3>

Explanation: This time we use the sine rule. We have the height as the opposite side (which is unknown, call it x) and the hypotenuse is the ladders length (11). So we have sin(72) = x/11 which solves to x = 11*sin(72) = 10.46162

=====================================

Problem 12

<h3>Answer: approximately 16.05724 cm</h3>

Explanation: Now we use the tangent rule to connect the opposite and adjacent sides.

tan(37) = 12.1/x

x*tan(37) = 12.1

x = 12.1/tan(37)

x = 16.05724 approximately

Randy chooses to survey every 5th student in the cafeteria. He surveys a total of 140 students and finds that 84 support buying
umka21 [38]

Answer: He can predict that 420 students will be in support of the purchase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Randy surveyed one student out of every 5 he came across in the cafeteria, it means that if he came across five people, he will survey one, if he came across ten students, he will survey 2 and so on.

If then he surveyed a total of 140 students, then we can actually multiply the number by 5 to know the exact number of students he possibly came across in the cafeteria:

= 140 × 5

= Total of 700 students

If 84 out of the surveyed students supported the purchase, we can find what that figure represents in the total number of students in the cafeteria:

84/140 = x/700

We cross multiply

140 × X = 84 × 700

140X = 58,800

X = 58,800/140

X = 420 students

Therefore, he can predict that 420 students out of a total of 700 students in the cafeteria will be in support of the purchase of the P.E equipment
