Answer:

x = 0

2(x+7) 2x + 20 - 2 = x+4(2x + 8) start by distributing

2(x+7) would be 2x+14

4(2x+8) would be 8x+32

2x+14 x 2x + 20 - 2 = x + 8x + 32 now combine like terms

2x and 2x can be combined on the left side

x and 8x can be combined on the right side

4x + 14 + 20 - 2 = x + 8x + 32

4x + 32 = 9x + 32 you can now solve this equation

start by subtracting 4x on both sides

32 = 5x +32 now subtract 32 on both sides

0 = 5x so x = 0

X^2=1 has two solutions. If the equation is changed to 4x^2=1 which operation find the solutions of the new equation?

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

X = -1/2 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When the square root of a number is found, this usually results in 2 solutions which may be equal in size but opposite in signs.

As such,

X^2=1 to find x find the root of both sides

X = √1

X = -1 or 1

Going by this

4x^2=1

Divide both sides by 4

X^2=1 /4

taking the square root of both sides

X = √1/4

The root of 1 is -1 or 1 while that of 4 is -2 or 2 hence,

X = -1/2 or 1/2

The diagram below shows the graph of the quadratic function f (x) = ax² + 8x + c. calculate the value for each of the following.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The y- intercept is at (0, 6) ⇒ c = 6

The x- coordinate of the vertex is at the midpoint of the zeros, that is

m = $\frac{-3-1}{2}$ = $\frac{-4}{2}$ = - 2

Since the zeros are x = - 3 and x = - 1 then the factors are (x + 3), (x + 1) and

f(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 1) = a(x² + 4x + 3)

Comparing with f(x) = ax² + 8x + 6 ⇒ a = 2

Thus

f(x) = 2x² + 8x + 6

Substitute m = - 2 into the equation for value of n

n = 2(- 2)² + 8(- 2) + 6 = 8 - 16 + 6 = - 2

Hence

c = 6, m = - 2, a = 2, n = - 2

Prove that if d|m and d|n, then d|(m+n)

Mila [183]

$d\mid m$ means to say there is some $k_1$ such that $m=dk_1$ . Similarly, $d\mid n$ is equivalent to saying there exists $k_2[/te]x such that [tex]n=dk_2$ .

Now, $m+n=dk_1+dk_2=d(k_1+k_2)=dk_3$ , i.e. there is some $k_3$ such that $m+n$ is a multiple of $d$ , i.e. $d\mid(m+n)$ .
