Line 1:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
x² + 2·1.5x + 1.5² - 0.25 = x² +3x +2
Expanding the factored form, we have
x² +(1+2)x +1·2 = x² +3x +2
Comparing these to x² +3x +2, we find ...
• the three expressions are equivalent on Line 1
Line 2:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
x² +2·2.5x +2.5² +6.25 = x² +5x +12.5
Expanding the factored form, we have
x² +(2+3)x +2·3 = x² +5x +6
Comparing these to x² +5x +6, we find ...
• the three expressions are NOT equivalent on Line 2
The appropriate choice is
Line 1 only
Answer:
7+3n=28 and the answer would be n=7
Step-by-step explanation:
7+3n=28 subtract 7 on both sides, that would leave 3n=21, divide 3 on both sides, the answer would be n=7 if I'm correct. I hope I helped.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer would be 2 because it reduces to the same system of equations as the original, which I knew since the first equation was the same and if you divide everything in the second by 2, you'll get 3x-y=8. :)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 2y = 8
5x + 2y = -4
+ x. -2y. -8
6x = -12
÷6. ÷6
x = -2
5(-2) + 2y = -4
-10 + 2y = -4
+10. +10
2y = 6
÷2. ÷2
y = 3
