Factor: 12x^2 - 23x + 10 Simplify: 4x+1/x+4 + 3x-1/x+1 = 2 Simplify: 2-5i/3+4i Solve the absolute value equation: 2 + 2|2x + 5| = 26 Solve by any method: 4x^2 = 4x - 15 Find the equation of a line through the point (4, -2) And perpendicular to the line 3x - 2y = 4 Find the following composition of functions for f(x) = 6/x-2, g(x) = 3/5x: (f g)(x).(g f)(x) Simplify: 12x^1/6 y^1/4/16x^3/4 y^1/2 solve: squareroot -9x-9 + x = 1 Use the vertex formula to find the vertex for the function f(x) = -2x^2 - 6x - 1 Write the function in standard form.
Solution
1) correct
2) ( 4x+1)/(x+4) + (3x-1)/(x+1) = 2
take lcd as (x+4)(x+1)
[(4x+1)(x+1) + (3x-1)(x+4)]/(x+4)(x+1) =2
[ 4x^2 +5x +1 + 3x^2+11x -4 ]/(x^2 +5x +4) =2
7x^2 +16x -3 = 2x^2 + 10x +8
5x^2 +6x -11 =0
5x^2 +11x -5x -11 =0
x(5x+11) -1(5x +11) =0
(x-1)(5x +11) =0
x=1 ; x=-11/5
4) 2+ 2|2x +5| = 26
2 + 2(2x +5) =26
4x +10 +2 =26
4x = 26 -12
4x = 14
x= 7/2
2 - 2(2x +5) =26
2 - 4x -10 = 26
-4x = 34
x = -17/2
Solution ( -17/2 , 7/2)
5) 4x^2 = 4x -5
4x^2 -4x +5 =0
Solve using quadratic root formula:
x = ( -b +/- sqrt(b^2 -4ac) )/2a
= ( 4 +/- sqrt(16 -80))/8
= 1/2 +/- i
= 1/2 +i , 1/2 -i
