Quadratic_Equations/252662: Write the equation of the quadratic function with roots 0 and 2 and a vertex at (1, 5). 1 solutions Answer 184708 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2009-12-30 09:21:32 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = x*(x-2) gives the 2 roots, but the vertex is below the x-axis. y = -x*(x-2) inverts it. y = -x^2 + 2x gives the 2 roots, but the vertex is at 1,1. Multiply it by 5: y = -5x^2 + 10x works

Rate-of-work-word-problems/252648: If Mario can do a piece of work in 3 days and Joey in 2 days, in how many days can they do the same work together? 1 solutions Answer 184705 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2009-12-30 08:42:37 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! If Mario can do a piece of work in 3 days and Joey in 2 days, in how many days can they do the same work together? -------------------------------- Realistically, about 7 days, since they'll waste time together. Using math, tho: M does 1/3 of the work per day. J does 1/2 of the work per day. Together, 1/3 + 1/2 = 5/6 of the work per day. --> 6/5 days to do the work, or 1.2 days. ----------------------------- Use the shortcut, product/sum 3*2/(3+2) = 6/5

Distributive-associative-commutative-properties/252544: Actually I wanted to favtorize: So I multiplied 8 with 15 and got 120. The factors came as and Then I split the into these 2 numbers, so I got: Then what do I do next? Please help I have no clue! 1 solutions Answer 184516 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2009-12-29 09:49:43 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! ----------------- It's a trial and error thing. The 1st term, 15, can be: 1*15 or 3*5 The last term, 8, can be 1*8 or 2*4. It's +8, so the signs are the same. Start with 1 and 15, ignore the sign but try to get 22 for the middle term: (x - 1)*(15x - 8) --> 23x NG (3x - 1)*(5x - 8) --> 29x NG ------------------------------ (x - 2)*(15x - 4) --> 34x NG (3x - 2)*(5x - 4) --> 22x That's it. The 22x is negative, so it's factored. ------------------------------------ The best approach is to use the quadratic equation, but students are usually subjected to factoring before learning the quadratic equation.
