He made a mistake in step #2. It seemed to be a trivial mistake because it involved signs, but it still had a great impact. Since step#2, his solution was already wrong.
Instead of
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = 1 + 48 = 49
What he did is
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = -1 + 48 = 47
So, first we multiply the fraction by using the formula a/b times c/d= a times c/b times d
=(y^2-16) times 5y/2y(y-4)
Now, we cancel the common factor y
=(y^2-16) times 5/2(y-4)
Now, we factor 5(y^2-16)
We factor (y^2-16) first
y^2-16
Rewrite 16 as 4^2
y^2-4^2
Now, apply the formula x^2-y^2=(x+y)(x-y)
=y^2-4^2=(y+4)(y-4)
=5(y+4)(y-4)
=5(y+4)(y-4)/2(y-4)
Cancel the common factor y-4
=5(y+4)/2
Answer: 5(y+4)/2
Answer:
(x + 4)^2 + (y – 9)^2 = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form for a circle is
where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius
In your case, h = -4 and k = 9 and r = 5
So, (x + 4)^2 + (y – 9)^2 = 25
Y = |x² - 3x + 1|
y = x - 1
|x² - 3x + 1| = x - 1
|x² - 3x + 1| = ±1(x - 1)
|x² - 3x + 1| = 1(x - 1) or |x² - 3x + 1| = -1(x - 1)
|x² - 3x + 1| = 1(x) - 1(1) or |x² - 3x + 1| = -1(x) + 1(1)
|x² - 3x + 1| = x - 1 or |x² - 3x + 1| = -x + 1
x² - 3x + 1 = x - 1 or x² - 3x + 1 = -x + 1
- x - x + x + x
x² - 4x + 1 = -1 or x² - 2x + 1 = 1
+ 1 + 1 - 1 - 1
x² - 4x + 1 = 0 or x² - 2x + 0 = 0
x = -(-4) ± √((-4)² - 4(1)(1)) or x = -(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1)(0))
2(1) 2(1)
x = 4 ± √(16 - 4) or x = 2 ± √(4 - 0)
2 2
x = 4 ± √(12) or x = 2 ± √(4)
2 2
x = 4 ± 2√(3) or x = 2 ± 2
2 2
x = 2 ± √(3) or x = 1 ± 1
x = 2 + √(3) or x = 2 - √(3) or x = 1 + 1 or x = 1 - 1
x = 2 or x = 0
y = x - 1 or y = x - 1 or y = x - 1 or y = x - 1
y = (2 + √(3)) - 1 or y = (2 - √(3)) - 1 or y = 2 - 1 or y = 0 - 1
y = 2 - 1 + √(3) or y = 2 - 1 - √(3) or y = 1 or y = -1
y = 1 + √(3) or y = 1 - √(3) (x, y) = (2, 1) or (x, y) = (0, -1)
(x, y) = (2 ± √(3), 1 ± √(3))
The solution (0, -1) can be made by one function (y = x - 1) while the solution (2 ± √(3), 1 ± √(3)) can be made by another function (y = |x² - 3x + 1|). So the solution (2, 1) can be made by both functions, making the two solutions equal.
The scale faction is 20 to 1 hope that helps
