I think the answer would be B
I have another set of choices here:
A. {0.5, 1, 2}
B. {1, 2, 4}
C. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
<span>D. {0}
</span>
If you multiply two numbers from a closed set the answer is in the set.
<span>So A is not closed because 2 x 2 = 4 which isn't in the set. Only 0.5, 1, and 2 are in set A. </span>
<span>Try multiplying the largest numbers in sets B, C, and D by themselves. You will soon discover the closed set.</span>
In B 5^2 = 25. There is no x anywhere.
In C f(x) = 2/x is a function of a reciprocal, not a quadratic.
In D f(x) = 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 5 is a cubic. A cubic is not a quadratic. The highest power of a quadratic is x^2
That leaves A. When you expand the brackets, you get
3(x^2 + 3x- 4x - 12)
2(x^2 - x - 12) when you remove the brackets you get
2x^2 - 2x - 24. The highest power of x is x^2. This is your quadratic.
A<<<< answer.
Square root is this 4 and -4 are square roots to 16 because 4^2= 16
Ratio from rings to bracelets: 5:7
Let m=shaded square and y= clear square
mmmmmyyyyyyy
