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.

To solve these type of problems you need to use the pythagoras theorem ⇨ Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude².

Here,

Now, let's solve for x.

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude²

x² = (1.2)² + (1.6)²

x² = 1.44 + 2.56

x² = 4

x = √4

x = 2.

Pythagoras theorem can be used only in the cases of right-angled triangles. Here, it's given that the triangle is right angled so we can use this theorem.
To solve the squares if decimals, take them as whole numbers & then just add the decimal points. For example, ⇨ for (1.2)², take it as 12² , then multiply 12 by 12, you'll get 144. Now, add the decimal place accordingly ⇨ 1.44 . So, (1.2)² = 1.44.
