The expression x^2 -7x + 10 can be written in factored form as given by Option C: (x-2)(x-5)

<h3>How to find the factors of a quadratic expression?</h3>

If the given quadratic expression is of the form ax^2 + bx + c

then its factored form is obtained by two numbers alpha( α ) and beta( β) such that:

b = \alpha + \beta \\ ac =\alpha \times \beta

Then writing b in terms of alpha and beta would help us getting common factors out.

Sometimes, it is not possible to find factors easily, so using the quadratic equation formula can help out without any trial and error.

For this case, we're provided the expression:

x^2 -7x + 10

We can write 10 as multiple of -5 and -2 and

we can write -7 as sum of -5 and -2. Thus, we get:

x^2 -7x + 10 = x^2 -5x - 2x + 10 = x(x-5+ -2(x-5) = (x-2)(x-5)

Thus, the expression x^2 -7x + 10 can be written in factored form as given by Option C: (x-2)(x-5)

A Ferris wheel has a diameter of 56 ft. how far will a rider travel during a 4-minute ride if the wheel rotates once every 20 se
Luba_88 [7]
First calculate the circumference. Usually this is the diameter times pi, but since we are told to estimate pi, the circumference equals 56 * 22/7 or 176 feet.
In 4 minutes, 4 * 60 = 240 seconds pass. In this time, a 20 second period will occur 240/20 = 12 times.
So we know that the rider rotates 12 times and each rotation takes them 176 feet, meaning that they will travel 12 * 176 =  2112 feet

In MODE, (second line), fix the number of decimal places to be 2. Then the slope and the y-intercept values of the LinReg line w
Mrrafil [7]

The equation of line is y = 92x – 182631. The slope is 92 and the y-intercept is the negative 182631. And the health expenditure in 2010 will be 2289.

<h3>What is the equation of a line passing through two points?</h3>

Suppose the given points are (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the equation of the straight line joining both two points is given by

\rm (y - y_1) = \left [ \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \right ] (x -x_1)

In MODE, (second line), fix the number of decimal places to be 2.

Then the slope and the y-intercept values of the Lin Reg line will round to the nearest hundredth.

(x₁, y₁) → (1997, 1093)

(x₂, y₂) → (2002, 1553)

Then we have

y – 1093 = [(1553 – 1093) / (2002 – 1997)] (x – 1997)

y – 1093 = [460  / 5] (x – 1997)

y – 1093 = 92 (x – 1997)

           y = 92x – 182631

If x = 2010, then the value of y will be

y = 92 × 2010 – 182631

y = 184920 – 192631

y = 2289
