Huy is solving a quadratic equation by completing the square. His first few steps​ (steps 1-4) are shown below. Which of the following statements is true regarding​ Huy's work?

Given x2+3x−5=0
Solution x2+3x=5 step 1
x2+3x+9=5+9 step 2
(x+3)2=14 step 3
x=−3±14−−√ step 4(1 point)

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 1 when he added a 5 to both sides. He should have only added a 5 to the left side of the equation.

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 4 when he solved the equation (x+3)2=14 for x.

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 2 of the solution when he added a 9 to both sides.

Huy is correct. He has done a nice job of completing the square.

Since profit can't be negative, the production level that'll maximize profit is approximately equal to 220.

The cost function, C(x) is given by 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³ while the demand function, P(x) is given by 1600 − 8x.

Next, we would differentiate the cost function, C(x) to derive the marginal cost:

C(x) = 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³

C'(x) = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x².

Also, revenue, R(x) = x × P(x)

Revenue, R(x) = x(1600 − 8x)

Revenue, R(x) = 1600x − 8x²

Next, we would differentiate the revenue function to derive the marginal revenue:

R'(x) = 1600 - 8x

At maximum profit, the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:

1600 - 8x = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x

1600 - 8x - 400 + 5.2x - 0.012x² = 0

1200 - 2.8x - 0.012x² = 0

0.012x² + 2.8x - 1200 = 0

Solving by using the quadratic equation, we have:

x = 220.40 or x = -453.73.

Since profit can't be negative, the production level that'll maximize profit is approximately equal to 220.

Answer:

Distribute -1/2 over (x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.5(x+4) = 6

-0.5x - 2 = 6

-0.5x = 8

x = -16

Answer:

Multiple both sides by -2 or Distribute negative one-half over (x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2(x+4) = 6

If I multiple both sides by -2, I am clearing the fraction:

(-2)(-1/2)(x+4) = 6(-2)

x+4 = -12

x = -16

OR

-1/2(x + 4) = 6

-1/2x -2 = 6  Remember, a negative times a positive is a negative.

-x - 4 = 12 multiply both sides by 2

-x = 16

x = -16

Answer: 8/52

8 is the equivalent of the fraction using a denominator of 52. 2/13

Equivalent fractions can be defined as fractions that may have different numerators and denominators but they represent the same value. For example, 9/12 and 6/8 are equivalent fractions because both are equal to 3/4 when simplified.

All equivalent fractions get reduced to the same fraction in their simplest form as seen in the example given above. Explore the given lesson to get a better idea of how to find equivalent fractions and how to check if the given fractions are equivalent.

        ⇒[tex]\frac{2}{13} =\frac{x}{52}[/tex]

       ⇒[tex]\frac{2(52)}{13} = x[/tex]

Answer:

  B.  Completing the square

Step-by-step explanation:

Between the first and second steps shown, the square of half the x-term coefficient was added to both sides. That is a value that makes the polynomial on the left be a "perfect square trinomial."

The process of adding the value required to make the left side a perfect square is called "completing the square."

The definition of the piece-wise function is:

A piece-wise function is a function that has different definitions, depending on the input.

In this problem, for inputs between -2 and 2, the function is a line that goes through (-2,-4) and (2,6). The slope is:

m = (6 - (-4))/(2 - (-2)) = 2.5.

The y-intercept is of b = 1, hence the rule is:

[tex]f(x) = 2.5x + 1, -2 \leq x \leq 2[/tex]

For x greater than 2 and less than 6, the function is constant at -3, hence the rule is:

[tex]f(x) = -3, 2 < x < 6[/tex].

The attached image shows the image of A"B"C" after the transformation

The transformation rule states:

A"B"C" = Ro90° (T(-4,3)(ABC))

This implies that one need to rotate the triangle in a 90⁰ clockwise direction, and then one need to translate the triangle.

Using the image shown, the coordinates of ABC are;

A = (-1, 2)

B = (1, 4)

C = (3, -1)

The 90⁰ rule clockwise rotation  will be:

(x,y) -- (y,-x)

So, when translated, it will be:

A' = (2, 1)

B' = (4, -1)

C' = (-1, -3)

Then the translation of the triangle using T(-4,3):

(x, y) -  (x - 4, y + 3)

So, there is:

The number of years it will take for the world’s population to increase to 8,252,000,000 people is 16

This implies that we calculate the value of x

The equation is given as:

8252=(6080)(1.02)^x

Divide both sides by 6080

1.36 = (1.02)^x

Take the logarithm of both sides

log(1.36) = x * log(1.02)

Divide both sides log(1.02)

x = log(1.36)/log(1.02)

The regression equation is y =  3.002 + 0.5x and the scatterplot is illustrated.

It should be noted that a scatterplot simply means a type of data that shows the relationship between two numerical variables.

From the information, summation is X is 99, summation Y is 82.5, summation XY is 797.47, and summation X² is 1001.

Now the value of a will be:

= 82.5 - 1001 - 99 - 797.47/(11.1001 - 99²)

= 3.002

b = (11 × 797.47 - 99 × 82.5)/11.1001 - 99²

Using the normal distribution, the probability is given as follows:

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The parameters for the binomial distribution are:

p = 0.5, n = 13.

Hence the mean and the standard deviation are:

Using continuity correction, the desired probability is P(X > 9.5), which is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 9.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{9.5 - 6.5}{1.8028}[/tex]

Z = 1.66

Z = 1.66 has a p-value of 0.9515.

The paddling rate of Alvin is 9km/hr

Given time against the  river current is 10 hours , speed is 3km/hr

and time with the river current given is 5 hours and the speed is 3km/hr

We need to calculate the paddling rate of Alvin

Let us assume that

r =Alvin's average paddling rate in km/hour

y = speed of the current in km/hour

we know that

speed= distance/time

∴ distance=speed*time

Now,

To Campsite against the current

Speed=(r-y)

∴ Speed=(r-3) ---- (1)

Time=8 hours

Distance=(r-3)*10------ (2)

10r - 30

From Campsite with the current

Speed=(r+y)

∴Speed=(r+3)*5

Time=3 hours

Distance=(r+3)*5----(1)

Equate equation 1 and equation 2

5r +15

because is the same distance

5r + 15 = 10r - 30

5r = 45

r = 9

Hence ,The rate of the paddling rate is 9km/hr

The number of sea stars is 64.

What is a ratio?

Comparing two amounts of the same units and determining the ratio tells us how much of one quantity is in the other.

In general, a: b, which can be interpreted as "a is to b," is used to denote a ratio between two quantities, let's say "a" and "b."

This ratio is expressed in fraction form as a/b. We utilize the same method for further simplifying a ratio as we use for further simplifying a fraction.

According to the question,

Ratio of sea stars to wolf eels = 4:5

Number of rock fish= 5/8 (Number of sea stars)

Number of wolf eels - Number of rock fish = 40

Using the given information, we get,

Number of sea stars = 8/5 (Number of rock fish)

On simplification,

Number of wolf eels = 80

So, number of sea stars = (4/5)*80
