Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2.
Step where it was wrong ->
x-8 = 0
x=-8
They just put negative eight on the right side you have to cancel negative 8 out by adding negative 8 on both sides.
x-8=0
+8 +8
x=8 <- Right solution.
3.
Step where it was wrong ->
8(p-7) = 75
8p-7=75
Distributive Property you have to do 8 times p and 8 times -7, they just did 8 times p and forgot to do 8 times -7.
8(p-7)=75
8p-56=75 <- Do 8 * -7 in addition of doing 8 *p
8p=131
/8 /8
p = 16.735 or 131/8
I think it’s 8
Hope this helps *smiles*
Sorry if it’s wrong
Answer:
y = - 2x² - 2x + 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard form of a quadratic is y = ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0
Given
y = - 2(x + 5)(x - 4) ← expand factors using FOIL
= - 2(x² - 4x + 5x - 20)
= - 2(x² + x - 20) ← distribute parenthesis by - 2
= - 2x² - 2x + 40 ← in standard form
