Answer:

His mistake was he didn't multiply 3(4) when he was opening the parenthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct solution:

12x – 5 = 3(x + 4)

Open parenthesis

12x – 5 = 3x + 12

Collect like terms

12x - 3x = 12 + 5

9x = 17

x = 17/9

x = 9 8/9

Incorrect solution:

12x – 5 = 3(x + 4)

His mistake was he didn't multiply 3(4) when he was opening the parenthesis

12x – 5 = 3x + 4

12x = 3x - 1

9x = -1

(7, 1) and (1,8)
slope = (8 - 1)/(1-7) = -7/6

so
y - 1 = -7/6(x - 7)
y - 1 = -7/6 x + 49/6
y = -7/6 x + 55/6

answer
A. first one

y = -7/6 x + 55/6

mezya [45]
You can calculate the area of the whole pizza according to the formula: S=1/2*π*r². And the area of 8 piece is 1/8S while the area of 12 piece is 1/12S. The answer should be 1/8S-1/12S=4/3π.

Select all the correct equations.
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

You did not post the options, but i will try to answer this in a general way.

Because we have two solutions, i know that we are talking about quadratic equations, of the form of:

0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c.

There are two easy ways to see if the solutions of this equation are real or not.

1) look at the graph, if the graph touches the x-axis, then we have real solutions (if the graph does not touch the x-axis, we have complex solutions).

2) look at the determinant.

The determinant of a quadratic equation is:

D = b^2 - 4*a*c.

if D > 0, we have two real solutions.

if D = 0, we have one real solution (or two real solutions that are equal)

if D < 0, we have two complex solutions.
