Describe And Correct The Error A Student Made In Factoring 2x^2 + 1 1 X + 15.(image)

Answers

Answer 1

      The student forgot to divide the factors, 5 and 6, by the "a" value. In this case, that is 2. Then, simplify the fractions. Once we have these values, the numerator is the constant value and the denominator is the coefficient.

             5/2 = 5/2 ➜ (2x + 5)

             6/2 = 3 ➜ (x + 3)

     This student should have factored the expression as;

                 (2x + 5)(x + 3)

Answer 2

Answer:

(2x + 5)(x+3) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

ac = 5 * 6 = 30
b = 5 + 6 = 11
Factorizing 2x² + 11x + 15,
2x² + 6x + 5x + 15 = 0
2x(x + 3) + 5(x+3) = 0
(2x + 5)(x+3) = 0

∴ x = [tex]\frac{-5}{2}[/tex], -3

(There was a mistake probably because the quadratic equation was considered with 1 as the coefficient as x², so the factorized equation was for x² + 11x + 30. You must take the coefficient of x² as 2 instead, according to the given equation.)

What is the value of n in the equation n + 7.6 = 13.82?
Group of answer choices

n = 6.22
n = 21.42
n = 13.08
Thanks!

Answers

The value of n is 6.22
The value would be 6.22

Explanation: N is the number that you are trying to find and if N + 7.6 is equal to 13.82, an easy way to find N is by subtracting 7.6 from 13.82 (13.82-7.82=6.22)

Find the 3 smallest positive x-intercepts of the graph of
y = cos(12x) + cos(16x) and list them in increasing order.

Please give your answers as a list of x-coordinates from least to greatest.

Answers

Recall that [tex]\cos(x)+\cos(y)=2\cos \left(\frac{x+y}{2} \right)\cos \left(\frac{x-y}{2} \right)[/tex].

[tex]\cos(12x)+\cos(16x)=0 \\ \\ 2\cos(2x)\cos(14x)=0 \\ \\ \cos(2x)\cos(14x)=0[/tex]

If [tex]\cos(2x)=0[/tex], then [tex]x=\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{5\pi}{4}, \cdots[/tex].

If [tex]\cos(14x)=0[/tex], then [tex]x=\frac{\pi}{28}, \frac{3\pi}{28}, \frac{5\pi}{28}, \cdots[/tex].

So, the three smallest positive [tex]x[/tex] intercepts are [tex]\frac{\pi}{28}, \frac{3\pi}{28}, \frac{5\pi}{28}[/tex].

N + 8n2 - 17=

Answers

Answer: 27.62

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in 2.3 wherever 'n' is

I'm assuming that the '2' in 8n2 is an exponent

2.3 + 8(2.3)² - 17 =

Using PEMDAS

start out with exponent since there isn't any parenthesis  

(2.3)² = 5.29

2.3 + 8(5.29) - 17

move on to multiplication

8(5.29) = 42.32

2.3 + 42.32 - 17

with addition and subtraction, you do whichever comes first and since this equation starts with addition we'll start there

2.3 + 42.32 = 44.62

then the subtraction

44.62 - 17 = 27.62

Let theta be an angle such that cos(theta)=-1/9 and 0<=theta<=2pi

Assume that cos(theta/2)<0. Then if
Terminal point of theta/2 = (a_1, a_2),
enter a_1 and a_2 in that order.

Answers

Using the cosine half angle formula,

[tex]\cos \frac{\theta}{2}=-\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{1}{9}}{2}}=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Using the sine half angle formula,

[tex]\sin \frac{\theta}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{1}{9}}{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}[/tex]

So, [tex]a_1=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex] and [tex]a_2=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}[/tex].

Let's use the unit circle to find the terminal point of theta/2.

The unit circle is a circle with a radius of 1 that is centeed at the origin (0,0) in the coordinate plane. For any angle theta in the interval [0, 2pi), the terminal point of theta in the unit circle can be found using the coordinates (cos(theta), sin(theta)).

Since cos(theta/2)<0, the terminal point of theta/2 lies in either the 2nd or the 3rd quadrant of the coordinate plane. In the unit circle, the 2nd and 3rd quadrants are defined by the points with negative y-coordinates, so for the terminal point of theta/2, we have:

a_1 = cos(theta/2)
a_2 = sin(theta/2)

Both a_1 and a_2 are negative because the terminal point of theta/2 lies in the 2nd or 3rd quadrant.

A study was conducted comparing the speeds of 2 different fish, Fish A and Fish B. The table shows the distance, in meters, Fish A travels in seconds. Scientists
concluded that Fish B travels 3 meters every 2 seconds.

Assuming both fish swim at a constant rate, which fish swims faster and by how many meters per second?

Answers

Answer:

Fish A travels faster and by 0.1 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the table, you can see that the seconds are not being measured constantly. To determine the rate of change of meters per second, we can use subtraction on both the numerator and denominator of the expression. Where we divide it into 1 second.

meters/second → 4.8 – 1.6 / 3 – 1 = 3.2 / 2 =

1.6 meters/second.

Now we can compare the rate from fish B by also diving it into 1 second.

3 meters every 2 seconds → 3/2 =

1.5 meters/second.

Since 1.6 > 1.5, Fish A is faster!

And to compare the simplified rates

1.6 – 1.5 = 0.1 meters.

So Fish A is 0.1 meters faster!

--> No. of blocks of x = 7

a. x² + 32x + 256
b. x² — 4y²
c. x²- 20x + 100

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) [tex]x^2[/tex] + 32x + 256

Factorisation by pairing:

([tex]x^2[/tex] + 16x) + (16x + 256)

= x(x+16) + 16(x+16)

= (x+16)(x+16)

∴ Side of the square = (x+16)

(b) [tex]x^2 - 4y^2[/tex]

Identity: [tex]a^2 - b^2[/tex] = (a+b)(a-b)

[tex](x)^2 - (2y)^2\\[/tex]

= (x+2y)(x-2y)

∴ Length of rectangle = (x+2y)

Breadth of rectangle = (x-2y)

(c) [tex]x^2 - 20x + 100[/tex]

[tex]= x^2 - 10x - 10x +100x[/tex]

= x(x-10) -10(x-10)

= (x-10)(x-10)

∴ Side of square = (x-10)

The factorization of the polynomial x²-20x+100 is (x-10)(x-10).

What is factorization?

The factorization method uses basic factorization formula to reduce any algebraic or quadratic equation into its simpler form, where the equations are represented as the product of factors instead of expanding the brackets. The factors of any equation can be an integer, a variable, or an algebraic expression itself.

a) x²+32x+256

By using splitting middle term method, we get

x²+16x+16x+256

= x(x+16)+16(x+16)

= (x+16)(x+16)

b) x²-4y²

Using the identity a²-b²=(a+b)(a-b)

Now, x²-(2y)²

= (x+2y)(x-2y)

c) x²-20x+100

By using splitting middle term method, we get

x²-10x-10x+100

= x(x-10)-10(x-10)

= (x-10)(x-10)

Therefore, the factorization of the polynomial x²-20x+100 is (x-10)(x-10).
