Question

HELP PLEASE

Answer 1

Two students, Jennifer and Jamal, factored the trinomial 6x2 − 3x − 9. Jamal factored it as 3(2x − 3)(x + 1) and Jennifer factored it as (2x − 3)(3x + 3). Indicate which student factored the trinomial completely and which student did not, and explain why.

Answer 2

Jeniffer did not factor completely because all three terms have the common factor : 3 which should be on the outside of the parenthesis like Jamal did.

Answer 3

You're amazing. Can you help me with two more?

Answer 4

Suppose C and D represent two different school populations where C > D and C and D must be greater than 0. Which of the following expressions is the largest? Explain why. Show all work necessary.


(C + D)2
2(C + D)
C2 + D2
C2 − D2

Answer 5

5 mins?

Answer 6

ok

Answer 7

for this one, if I put C = 2 and D = 1
(2+1)^2 = 9
2*(2+1) = 6
2^2 + 1^2 = 5
2^2 - 1^2 = 3
so A

Answer 8

Okay and one more. The functions f(x) = –(x + 4)2 + 2 and g(x) = (x − 2)2 − 2 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. Is the vertex for each function a minimum or a maximum? Explain your reasoning for each function.

Answer 9

f(x) = max because first term is negative
g(x) = min because first term is positive

Answer 10

TY! Good luck with whatever you do!

Answer 11

YW and TY :D
