Answer:

The student made an error during the distributive property in the second step where they multiplied 0.15 by -0.2 to equal -0.3 when it should have been -0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

$0.15(y-0.2)=2-0.5(1-y)\\0.15y-0.03=2-0.5+0.5y\\0.15y-0.03=1.5+0.5y\\100(0.15y-0.03)=100(1.5+0.5y)\\15y-3=150+50y\\15y-3-15y-150=150+50y-15y-150\\-153=35y\\-\frac{153}{35}=y$

Find x. (Use pic for more info)

V125BC [204]

Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey There!

If you didn't know the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles of a triangle

So essentially what I'm saying is that

2x-5=70+x

step 1 add 5 to each side

-5+5 cancels out

70+5=75

now we have

2x=70+x

step 2 subtract x from each side

x-x cancels out

2x-x=x

we're left with

x=75

Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and the zeros 4 and 3−

Neko [114]

Answer:

$P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p =1$ -- Leading coefficient

$Zeros: 4\ and\ 3 - i$

Required

Determine the polynomial

Represent the zeros with a and b

Such that

$a = 4$

$b = 3 - i$

The polynomial is:

$P(x) = p * (x - a) * (x - b)$

$P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))$

However, to solve further: We need to symmetrise over 3-i and its conjugate

$P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))\\\\$

To define a suitable function, the expression becomes

$P(x) = (x - 4) * ((x - 3)^2+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * ((x - 3)(x - 3)+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x + 9+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x +10)$

Open bracket

$P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 +10x - 4x^2 + 24x-40$

$P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 - 4x^2+10x + 24x-40$

$P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40$
