Mica should have added 2 to 3 instead of 1
monitta3 years ago
3 0

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.

At a movie theater, tickets for children cost $8 each and adult tickets cost $8.75 each. Of ticket sales for a group of 35 peopl
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The results don't make sense

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:

"x" is the number of children's tickets

"y" is the number of adult tickets

Thus:

8 * x + 8.75 * y = 259

 x + y = 35 => x = 35 - y

replacing we have:

 8 * (35 - y) + 8.75 * y = 259

280 - 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259

 - 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259 - 280

0.75 * y = -21

y = -21 / 0.75

y = -28

Thus:

x = 35 - (-28) = 63

With these results we notice that the problem has inconsistency, since the value of the tickets cannot be given a negative number, I recommend reviewing the problem, since the approach is correct.

A ball was dropped from a height of 60m. Each time it hit the ground, it bounced up 1/2 (half) of the height that it dropped. Ho
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The ball traveled 116.25 m when it hit the ground for the fifth term

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric progression exercise and what we are asked to look for is the sum of a GP.

The ball was dropped from a height of 60 m. This means that the initial height of the ball is 60 m.

First value, a = 60

Each time it hit the ground, it bounced up 1/2 (half) of the height that it dropped.

This is the common ratio, r = 1/2 = 0.5

The number of terms it hits the ground is the number of terms in the GP.

number of terms, n = 5

The distance traveled by the ball when it hit the ground for the fifth term will be modeled by the equation:

S_n = \frac{a(1 - r^n) }{1 - r} \\S_5 =  \frac{60(1 - 0.5^5) }{1 - 0.5}\\S_5 =  \frac{58.125}{0.5} \\S_5 = 116.25 m

A software company is releasing one of their products on a CD. The manufacturer charges a $5,500 setup fee and $1.00 per CD. App
olga_2 [115]
Setup Fee= $5,500Per CD Charge= $1.00Desired Cost Per CD= $3.50
x= number of CDs

Desired Cost Per CD= Cost per CD + Setup Fee
($3.50 * x)= ($1.00 * x) + $5,500multiply inside parentheses
$3.50x= $1.00x + $5,500subtract $1.00x from both sides
$2.50x= $5,500divide both sides by $2.50
x= 2,200 CDs

ANSWER: x= 2,200 CDs
Hope this helps!  :)
