4 0

Answer:

the variable n represents how many of the product thomas bought

Step-by-step explanation:

20 dollars is the initial amount of money, and for every paintbrush, you have to subtract 4 dollars from thomas's initial amount, and the result of the subtraction is the amount of change he will recieve.

Please help!! What Find the Error and explain why it is wrong!
Nata [24]

Answer:

First image attached

The error was done in Step E, because student did not multiply 2\cdot x -8 by the negative sign in numerator. Step E must be \frac{2\cdot x -5}{(x+4)\cdot (x-4)}.

Second image attached

The error was done in Step C, because the student omitted the 2\cdot a \cdot b of the algebraic identity (a+b)^{2} = a^{2}+2\cdot a\cdot b +b^{2}. Step C must be 5\cdot x = x^{2}+4\cdot x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First image attached

The error was done in Step E, because student did not multiply 2\cdot x -8 by the negative sign in numerator. The real numerator in Step E should be:

3-(2\cdot x -8)= 3-2\cdot x+8 = 11-2\cdot x

Hence, Step E must be \frac{2\cdot x -5}{(x+4)\cdot (x-4)}.

Second image attached

The error was done in Step C, because the student omitted the 2\cdot a \cdot b of the algebraic identity (a+b)^{2} = a^{2}+2\cdot a\cdot b +b^{2}. Step C must be 5\cdot x = x^{2}+4\cdot x + 4

And further steps are described below:

Step D

x^{2}-x+4 = 0

Which according to the Quadratic Formula, represents a polynomial with complex roots. That is: (a = 1, b = -1, c = 4)

D = b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c

D = (-1)-4\cdot (1)\cdot (4)

D = -17 (Conjugated complex roots)

Step E

(x-0.5-i\,1.936)\cdot (x-0.5+i\,1.936) = 0

Step F

x = 0.5+i\,1.936\,\lor\,x = 0.5-i\,1.936
