Please help!! What Find the Error and explain why it is wrong!

Nata [24]

Answer:

First image attached

The error was done in Step E, because student did not multiply $2\cdot x -8$ by the negative sign in numerator. Step E must be $\frac{2\cdot x -5}{(x+4)\cdot (x-4)}$ .

Second image attached

The error was done in Step C, because the student omitted the $2\cdot a \cdot b$ of the algebraic identity $(a+b)^{2} = a^{2}+2\cdot a\cdot b +b^{2}$ . Step C must be $5\cdot x = x^{2}+4\cdot x + 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

First image attached

The error was done in Step E, because student did not multiply $2\cdot x -8$ by the negative sign in numerator. The real numerator in Step E should be:

$3-(2\cdot x -8)= 3-2\cdot x+8 = 11-2\cdot x$

Hence, Step E must be $\frac{2\cdot x -5}{(x+4)\cdot (x-4)}$ .

Second image attached

The error was done in Step C, because the student omitted the $2\cdot a \cdot b$ of the algebraic identity $(a+b)^{2} = a^{2}+2\cdot a\cdot b +b^{2}$ . Step C must be $5\cdot x = x^{2}+4\cdot x + 4$

And further steps are described below:

Step D

$x^{2}-x+4 = 0$

Which according to the Quadratic Formula, represents a polynomial with complex roots. That is: ( $a = 1$ , $b = -1$ , $c = 4$ )

$D = b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c$

$D = (-1)-4\cdot (1)\cdot (4)$

$D = -17$ (Conjugated complex roots)

Step E

$(x-0.5-i\,1.936)\cdot (x-0.5+i\,1.936) = 0$

Step F

$x = 0.5+i\,1.936\,\lor\,x = 0.5-i\,1.936$

a man invested a total of $3,000 in two investments. he made a profit of 3% on the first investment and 4% on the second investm

klio [65]

Let the first investment be x
and second be 3000-x

so 3%of x + 4% of (3000-x) = 107
By solving x = 1300

First investment is 1300
second investment is 1700

3. A dish contains 100 candies. Juan removes candies from the dish each day and no

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If i am correct n= the days so with the days adding up day 10 juan would have 55 of the 100 candies, day 11 he would have 66. The statement said at least 64, so it would have to be 64 or the closet amount to 64 but it cannot be lower than 64. So there for 66 is the closest to the given amount, and in order for juan to get 64 he would need to take candies out for 11 days.
