Mica should have added 2 to 3 instead of 1

Answer:

Mica should have added 2 to 3 instead of 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x^2 – 4x – 3

0 = 2x^2 – 4x – 3

Mica added 3 on boths sides and factored out 2

3 = 2(x^2 – 2x)

We have 2 outside the parenthesis , so we multiply 1 with 2 and add it one left side

3 + 1 = 2(x^2 – 2x + 1) Error in this step

The above step becomes 3 + 2 = 2(x^2 – 2x + 1)

Mica should have added 2 to 3 instead of 1.

Gaming a video-game designer is using the expression 6n3 in a program to determine points earned, where n is the game level.

Given expression is $6n^3$ . the given expression is for the nth level.

To simplify the expression for the $n^2$ level, we plug in $n^2$ in the place of 'n' in the given expression

$6n^3$

$6(n^2)^3$ (multiply the exponents)

$6n^6$

The sum of x and 8 is less than 72

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

x<84

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write an inequality. We know it is not an equation because of the words "less than". Also, x and 8 are being added because of the word "and". Here's the inequality: x+8 < 72. Now, subtract 8 on both sides so x is isolated. Our simplified inequality looks like this: x < 84.

Elena’s bus runs every 20 minutes. If she arrives at her bus stop at a random time, what is the probability that she will have t

Bond [772]

We try to represent the data in segments from 0 to 20.
<span>The length of the line segment along the number line from 0 to 5 is 5 - 0 = 5 units. The length of the line segment along the number line from 20 to 5 is 20 - 5 = 15 units. If you were to randomly throw a dart on this number line, then the probability of landing in the shaded region is 15/20 = 3/4 or 75%</span>
