Find the solution to the following equation. (Make sure to show all your work)

(4n-1)(n+5)=0

1. Set both binomials equal to zero

4n-1=0        n+5=0

Take inverse of -1 (+1) and add to both sides of equal sign. Now left with 4n=1. Then take inverse of 4n (divide by 4)/ Now n=1/4

Take inverse of +5 (-5) and add to both sides of equal sign. Now n=-5

Explain how the following parabola is affected (shifted) given this equation

y=2(X-3)2+8

This parabola will be narrow and open up because a>1 and a=2.  It will shift 4 units right because h is 4 and 8 units up because k is 8

What is the sum of the two values that make the equation true?

(4m-1)(m+2)=3

Make both binomials equal to 3

4m-1=3     m+2=3

Set both equal to zero by taking the inverse of what's on the right side of the equal sign.  4m-4=0    m-1=0. Now use zero Product property.

4m-4=0               m-1=0

4m=4                  m=1

m=1

One solution, m=1

For what values of x are the values of 5x2 and 14x-8 equivalent?

Make both equal to each other

5x2=14x-8

5x2-14x+8=0

(5x-4)(x-2)=0

5x-4=0                   x-2=0

5x-4+4=0+4           x-2+2=0+2

5x=4                         x=2

x=4/5

Layla solved the following inequality incorrectly. What did she do wrong?

Find the solutions to m(3m-1)(m2+1)=0

3m-1=0   OR   m2+1=0  

3m=1             m2=-1

m=1/3            no real solution

Because theres no real solutions for m2+1, then the only answer is m=1/3.

 Although this solution is true, Layla forgot to take into account the m outside of the first binomial m(3m-1), therefore m=0 is also a valid solution.

Explain the difference between graphing a quadratic in standard form and identifying the vertex, width of parabola, variables, versus graphing a parabola in vertex form.

Standard: ax2+bx+c

With standard, first you must identify values of a,b,and c. The variable a determines the how wide or narrow parabola is (a>1, narrow, a<1 wide) Next, using the formula     -b/2a, solve for the x coordinate of vertex by substituting variable values. Once x coordinate is identifies, plug back into the original standard form by substituting for x, to find y. Once (x,y) is found, you have the vertex. 

Vertex form: a(x-h)2+k.

The value of (h,k) is the vertex. Keep in mind the h value changes once the inverse of whats in the parenthesis is taken. Ex: a(x-2)2+5, h=2 (inverse of -2) and vertex would be (2,5). Same rule applies with the a variable as standard form. If a>1, the parabola would be narrow and if a<1, wide parabola. Also, the direction in which the parabola opens is dependent upon if a is negative or positive.
