A student said that x = 4 was not a solution to the question 3(x -6) = -8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (4 -6) = -8 is correct.  The next step is to combine 4 and -6, obtaining

3(-2)

and this 3(-2) should equal -6, which is not the same as -8.

3(4 - 6) = 12 - 18, which differs from the student's solution.  This is the reason for the wrong answer.

(X+2)(4x-3) multiply place in descending powers
VMariaS [17]

Multiplying out the equation (x + 2)(4x - 3) and arranging in descending powers order gives us the quadratic form as; 4x² + 5x - 6

<h3>How to expand quadratic equations?</h3>

We want to expand the quadratic equation given as;

(x + 2)(4x - 3)

Multiplying out gives us;

4x² + 8x - 3x - 6

⇒ 4x² + 5x - 6

Thus, we can conclude that multiplying out the equation (x + 2)(4x - 3) and arranging in descending powers order gives us the quadratic form as; 4x² + 5x - 6

Hi, teacher I was absent these days and I didn’t understand anything about this lesson and I need help this is not count as a te

Given:

There are given that the cos function:

cos210^{\circ}=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Explanation:

To find the value, first, we need to use the half-angle formula:

So,

From the half-angle formula:

cos(\frac{\theta}{2})=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1+cos\theta}{2}}

Then,

Since 105 degrees is the 2nd quadrant so cosine is negative

Then,

By the formula:

\begin{gathered} cos(105^{\circ})=cos(\frac{210^{\circ}}{2}) \\ =-\sqrt{\frac{1+cos(210)}{2}} \end{gathered}

Then,

Put the value of cos210 degrees into the above function:

So,

\begin{gathered} cos(105^{\circ})=-\sqrt{\frac{1+cos(210)}{2}} \\ cos(105^{\operatorname{\circ}})=-\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{2}} \\ cos(105^{\circ})=-\sqrt{\frac{2-\sqrt{3}}{4}} \\ cos(105^{\circ})=-\frac{\sqrt{2-\sqrt{3}}}{2} \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Hence, the value of the cos(105) is shown below:

cos(105^{\operatorname{\circ}})=-\frac{\sqrt{2-\sqrt{3}}}{2}
