what is the factored form of the expression x^2 + 13x + 42?

(x + 6)(x + 7)

what is the factored form of the expression 9x^2 - 24x + 16?

(3x - 4)^2

what are the solutions to the equation x^2 + 3x - 28 - 0?

4, -7

what are the zeros of the function f(x) = x^2 + 8x + 16?

-4 only

what are the solutions of the equation (x + 16)^2 = 28?

x = -16 � 2?7

anna solved the equation (x + 4)^2 = 2 using the following steps. which statement identifies a mistake anna made, if any?

she did not make a mistake. her answer is correct.

solve the quadratic equation x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0 by completing the square. what is the solution, or what are the solutions, to the equation?

2, -5 (it says it's wrong on the test when it is right? it don't make sense) (maybe space the numbers)

use the quadratic formula, to solve the equation 5x^2 + 8x + 1 = 0. match each step to the correct method for solving the equation.

step 1: x = -8 � ?8^2 - 4(5)(1) / 2(5)
step 2: x = -8 � ?64 - 20 / 10
step 3: x = -8 � ?44 / 10
step 4: x = -8 � 2?11 / 10
step 5: x = -4 � ?11 / 5

which expression represents the number 3 + ?-4 rewritten in a + bi form?

3 + 2i

for the number 18, what is the value of a and b?

a = 18 and b = 0

lupita completed the square to solve the equation 0 = x^2 - 6x + 13 as follows. did lupita make a mistake? if so, where did the mistake occur, and what was it?

yes, in step 3, she should have added 9 to both sides of the equation.

marcus used the quadratic formula, to solve the equation 0 = x^2 + 5x + 17 as follows. did marcus make a mistake? if so, where?

yes, in step 1, he should have written 2(1) instead of 2(5) because a = 1.

which expression is equivalent to (2 - ?-4) + (1 + ?-49)?
