1 answer:
Nikolay [14]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

remember, the general formula to solve a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a)

I think there is a typo, and this should be

5x² - 7x = 72

5x² -7x - 72 = 0

x = (7 ± sqrt(49 - -1440))/10 = (7 ± sqrt(1489))/10

x1 = (7 + sqrt(1489))/10

x2 = (7 - sqrt(1489))/10

b)

x(x + 2) = 5

x² + 2x - 5 = 0

x = (-2 ± sqrt(4 - -20))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(24))/2 =

= (-2 ± sqrt(4×6))/2 = (-2 ± 2×sqrt(6))/2 =

= -1 ± sqrt(6)

x1 = -1 + sqrt(6)

x2 = -1 - sqrt(6)

c)

3x² + 2x - 4 = 0

x = (-2 ± sqrt(4 - -48))/6 = (-2 ± sqrt(52))/6 =

= (-2 ± sqrt(4×13))/6 = (-2 ± 2×sqrt(13))/6 =

= (-1 ± sqrt(13))/3

x1 = (-1 + sqrt(13))/3

x2 = (-1 - sqrt(13))/3

The drop down options are explicit and recursive.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Recursive

Explicit

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence an be represented by a recursive rule which gives the first term and defines the nth term by relating it to the previous term, or by an explicit rule which defines the nth term as a function of n.

The recursive rule is that we have the initial term. To find the subsequent term, we will take that <em>previous term</em> and add it to our common difference.

Hence, we are <em>relating the previous terms</em> to define the nth term.

For the explicit rule, we simply have a function of n. To find the nth term, we can substitute our desired term n for n and evaluate.

Ellie compared 4/7 and 5/3 by first comparing each fraction to 1/2 and 1.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

She made her first mistake in Step 3.

This is because 4/7 is actually less than 5/3.

Step 1 and 2 are mathematically accurate.

1/2 is less than 1.

So, since 4/7 is only greater than 1/2 and not greater than 1 as compared to 5/3 which is actually greater than 1, she should have concluded that 4/7 is less than 5/3.

Therefore, Step 3 contains the mistake.
