Mathieu is finding the x-intercepts of the function f(x) = x2 + 4x + 3. His work is shown below. Which error did Mathieu make?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set. The correct option is C.

What is a Function?

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

The x-intercepts of the function f(x) = x² + 4x + 3 can be found as shown below.

f(x) = x² + 4x + 3

0 = x² + 4x + 3

0 = (x+3)(x+1)

x = -3, -1

Now, it can be seen that Mathieu has actually set the factored expressions equal to each other, which was wrong.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

I can't see Mathieu's work but I will show the right steps and maybe you can find where Mathieu went wrong.

f(x)=x^2+4x+3

f(x)=(x+3)(x+1)       Since 3*1=3 and 3+1=4

The x-intercepts can be found by setting y to 0 and solving for x

(in other words replace that f(x) thing with 0 and solve for x)

0=(x+3)(x+1)

Now set both factors equal to 0

x+3=0       or      x+1=0

x   =-3                    x=-1

The x-intercepts are at (-3,0) and (-1,0)

There are 98,515 tress at Washington Park.If there are 85 acres of land,and the trees spread out evenly,how many trees are there on each acre of land?(show work )

Answers

To answer this all we need to do is DIVIDE.

98515 ÷ 85 = 1159

CHECK OUR WORK

1159 
× 85 = 98515

So, we were right!! :) 

So, there would be 1159 trees on each acre.

Hope I helped ya!!

Answer

Find out the how many trees are there on each acre of land .

To prove

Let us assume that the trees are there on each acre of land = x

As given

There are 98,515 tress at Washington Park.

If there are 85 acres of land

the trees spread out evenly i.e the tree are equally divided in each acre of land .

Than the equation becomes

x = (98515)/(85)

x = 1159

Therefore are 1159 trees on each acre of land .

Hence proved

Answers

Answer: if I’m reading this right the answer should be6 days

Step-by-step explanation: do 12x6=72 then add that to the current 34 shells she has, after this then she will have 108 shells, the amount she is looking for.
