Both solutions are correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Expression:
[tex]14x - 2x +3 = 3(5x + 9)[/tex]
See attachment for Clare and Lins' solution
Required
Determine if they are correct or not
[tex]14x - 2x +3 = 3(5x + 9)[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]14x - 2x + 3 = 15x + 27[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]14x - 2x -15x = -3 + 27[/tex]
[tex]-3x = 24[/tex]

Which represents a quadratic function?
Answers
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
a is a cubic. A cubic is an equation that has 3 on its base x to become x^3 as it's highest power. That is not a quadratic. A cubic and a quadratic are not the same thing.
b is a quadratic The highest power is 2 on the base (x) to become x^2. That is how a quadratic is defined.
c is a reciprocal. It has its highest power in the denominator, and that is not a quadratic. A quadratic is an equation whose highest power is 2 on its base (x) and whose highest power is in the numerator, not the denominator. This choice is rather tricky because the quadratic formula can be used on it if you change x = 1/z. Then the equation becomes f(x) = 4z^2 - 2z + 1. But as it is given and likely as you have been told, this is not a quadratic. This will factor into (2z - 1)(2z - 1). If I were a student, I'd question this one. It would be interesting to see how your instructor would eliminate it.
d is just a linear function. Since x^2 is multiplied by 0, it disappears. What is left is f(x) = -9x + 7 which is a linear function.

A property worth 10,480.00 is shared between Eugenia and her 10 brothers in ratio: 1:4 respectively.The 10 brothers shared their portion equally.Find each the brothers share.
Answers
Answer:
838.4
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
Total worth of the property = 10480.
Eugenia share: Her 10 brothers share = 1:4
Total ratio = 1+4 = 5.
Her 10 brother's share = (4/5)(10480)
Her 10 brother's share = 41920/5
Her 10 brother's share = 8384.
If the 10 brothers shared their portion equally,
Each brother's share = 8384/10
Each brother's share = 838.4

a cone and a cylinder have equal radii,r, and equal altitudes, h. If the slant height is l, then what is the ratio of the lateral area of the cone to the cylinder?
Answers
The ratio of the lateral area of the cone to the cylinder will be √(h²+r²)/2h.
What are a cone and a cylinder?The solid formed by two congruent closed curves in parallel planes along with the surface created by line segments connecting the corresponding points of the two curves is known as a cylinder.
A cylinder with a circular base is known as a circular cylinder. Based on the form of its base, a cone is given a name.
It is given that a cone and a cylinder have equal radii,r, and equal altitudes, h. The ratio of the lateral surface area of the cone to the cylinder will be calculated as below:-
The lateral area of the cone = πr√(h²+r²)
The lateral area of the cylinder = 2πrh
The ratio will be calculated as:-
R = πr√(h²+r²) / 2πrh
R = √(h²+r²) / 2h
Therefore, the ratio of the lateral area of the cone to the cylinder will be √(h²+r²)/2h.

Answers
Given:
A circle of radius r inscribed in a square.
To find:
The expression for the area of the shaded region.
Solution:
Area of a circle is:
[tex]A_1=\pi r^2[/tex]
Where, r is the radius of the circle.
Area of a square is:
[tex]Area=a^2[/tex]
Where, a is the side of the square.
A circle of radius r inscribed in a square. So, diameter of the circle is equal to the side of the square.
[tex]a=2a[/tex]
So, the area of the square is:
[tex]A_2=(2r)^2[/tex]
[tex]A_2=4r^2[/tex]
Now, the area of the shaded region is the difference between the area of the square and the area of the circle.
[tex]A=A_2-A_1[/tex]
[tex]A=4r^2-\pi r^2[/tex]
[tex]A=4r^2-\pi r^2[/tex]
[tex]A=r^2(4-\pi )[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is (a).

Area 2 is easier, so we’ll start with that one. Area of a rectangle is length x width.
8 x 6 = 48 square cm
Area 1 is a triangle, so the formula is 1/2(base)(height). The height of the triangle is 8, because it’s the same as the base of the rectangle. The base of the triangle is 4, because we can subtract the 6 from the rectangle from the total side length of 10. Does that make sense?
So 1/2 (4)(8)= 1/2(32) = 16 square cm
Then we add 16 + 48 = 64 square cm
