This is Josh’s solution for the equation x^2-6x-7=0
x^2-6x-7=0
x^2-6x=7
x^2-6x+9=7+9
(x-3)^2=16
x-3=16
x=19
x-3=-16
x=-13

explain what mistake he made on step 5 which is x-3=16

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

easy way to solve:

[tex]x^2-6x-7=0[/tex]

[tex]x^2+x-7x-7=0[/tex]

[tex]x(x+1)-7(x+1) =0[/tex]

[tex](x-7)(x+1)= 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 7, -1[/tex]

Mistake:

In step 5,

Josh should have given:

[tex](x-3)^2=16[/tex]

[tex]x-3 = \pm \sqrt{16}[/tex]     [ changing sides changes square sign to [tex]\pm[/tex] square root ]

[tex]x-3 = \pm 4[/tex]

[tex]x -3 = 4[/tex], [tex]x-3 = -4[/tex]

[tex]x = 7[/tex], [tex]x = -1[/tex]

Pls answer this for brainliest A refrigerator worth Rs.58000 is offered for sale at Rs.45000. What per cent discount is offered during the sale?

Answers

Discounts are used to reduce the price of items

The percentage discount during the sale is 22.41%

How to calculate the percentage discount

The given parameters are:

Worth = Rs 58000

Selling price = Rs 45000

Start by calculating the discount amount

Discount = Worth - Selling Price

So, we have:

Discount = Rs 58000 - Rs 45000

Discount = Rs 13000

The percentage discount is then calculated as:

[tex]\% Discount = \frac{Discount}{Worth}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\% Discount = \frac{13000}{58000}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\% Discount = 22.41\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage discount during the sale is 22.41%

  a.  given ∠1≅∠2, the converse of the corresponding angles theorem shows l║m.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several things you need to know to be able to answer this question.

corresponding angles where a transversal crosses (parallel) lines are angles that are in the same direction from the points of intersection. Here angles 1 and 2 are both "northwest" of the points of intersection, so are corresponding angles.the "corresponding angles theorem" tells you "if the lines are parallel, then corresponding angles at a transversal are congruent."the converse of a theorem "if A, then B" is "if B, then A". Here, the converse of the "corresponding angles theorem" is "if the corresponding angles at a transversal are congruent, then the lines are parallel."

__

You are given ∠1 ≅ ∠2, so the hypothesis of the converse of the corresponding angles theorem is already true. The conclusion that the lines are parallel is what you are asked to prove. To prove that, you only need to identify the angles as being corresponding, and invoke the theorem. The logic matches answer choice A.

 ∠1≅∠2 is given. The diagram shows ∠1 and ∠2 are corresponding angles, so by the converse of the Corresponding Angles Theorem, l║m.

Complete the equation that represents the relationship between n and s.

Answers

Answer: s=n+6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that s increases by 1 every time n increases by 1.

So we have s = n + [something]

To find this [something], we can just substitute one pair of values.

Take n=1, s=7 - we'll get 7 = 1 + [something] -> [something] = 6

So we have s = n+6

Find the values of x between 0 and pi where the tangent line to the graph of y = sin(x) cos(x) is horizontal.

Answers

Answer:

π/4, or 3π/4

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dx = cos(x)*cos(x)+sin(x)*[-sin(x)]=(cosx)^2-(sinx)^2=[1-(sinx)^2]-(sinx)^2 = 1-2(sinx)^2

Tangent line is horizontal, so dy/dx = 0

1-2(sinx)^2 = 0

(sinx)^2 = 1/2

sinx = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

Between 0 and pi, sinx >0

A concert promoter is forecasting this year's attendance for one of his concerts based on the following historical data: What is this year's forecast using exponential smoothing with alpha = .2, if last year's smoothed forecast was 15,000?

Answers

The smoothed forecast for this year depends on last years forecast and

observation, as well as the value of alpha.

Response:

The forecast for this year is 16,000

What relationship can be used to find the smoothed forecast?

The given parameter are;

α = 0.2

From a similar question online, we have the following possible values;

Last year's smoothed forecast, F₄ = 15,000

Last years actual value, A₄ = 20,000

Required:

The forecast this year

Solution:

The exponential smoothing relationship is expressed as follows;

F₅ = F₄ + α·(A₄ - F₄)

Which gives;

F₅ = 15,000 + 0.2 × (20,000 - 15,000) = 16,000

This year's forecast, F₅ = 16,000

Step-by-step explanation:

In a rectangle, the two diagonals are equal length, so MK = JL = 2x + 9

Note MK = 2 * MN, so

2x + 9 = 2 * (3x + 1)

expand:

2x + 9 = 6x + 2

Solve:

9 - 2 = 6x - 2x

4x = 7

x = 7/4

MK = JL = 2x + 9 = 2 * 7/4 + 9 = 7/2 + 9 = 3.5 + 9 = 12.5

Jen traveled from Boston to Cape Cod at 60 mph. On her way back, the

traffic was bad and her return trip took 3 times as long. What was Jen's

average speed on the round trip?

Answers

Answer: 30 mph

Step-by-step explanation: As we know: the formula for Average Speed (AS) is Average Speed = Total Distance ÷ Total Time.

Since we don't know exactly how far Jen needed to drive, our distance there will be 1, and since we don't know how long it took to get there, we will put 1 as well.

Now we have to state the distance and time to get back.  The distance will stay the same so we keep it 1. Now it is stated that when returning, it took Jen 3 times slower to get back, so we do 1 × 3 (because it took her longer) and get 3.

Next, we substitute: AS=TD÷TT ⇒ AS= (1+1) ÷ (1+3) = 2 ÷ 4= 1/2 or 1.4

Since our given beginning speed was 60mph, we need to multiply by 1/2 to get the final answer:

1/2 x 60 = 30

So ya, this is the answer *100% correct, checked on another website*
