Describe the zero product property and explain how tu use it to solve (2x + 10) (x - 7) = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korolek [52]1 year ago
8 0

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, when you have a product to two factors set equal to 0, you can use the Zero Product Property and make two separate equations, both set equal to 0, to find the roots for each factor:

2x+10=0\\2x=-10\\x=-5

x-7=0\\x=7

Notice that by plugging these roots back into the equation, either factor will be 0, making the whole expression 0:

(2x+10)(x-7)=0\\(2(7)+10)(7-7)=0\\(24)(0)=0\\0=0

(2x+10)(x-7)=0\\(2(-5)+10)(-5-7)=0\\(0)(-12)=0\\0=0

The median of the following data will ________________________ when you in add a data value of 1? (DO MATH on paper!) 8, 9, 9, 4
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets put the numbers in order from greatest to least.

10 9 9 8 6 4 4

Second, let's find the median without number 1. (The median is in bold.)

10 9 9 8 6 4 4

Third, let's add the number 1.

10 9 9 8 6 4 4 1

Fourth, let's find the median with the number 1.

10 9 9 8 6 4 4 1

Since there are two numbers in the middle let's find the average between them.

8+6=14

14/2= 7

Last, let's compare the two medians.

8>7

So when you add the number 1 the median decreases. So your answer is B decrease

It took the high school hockey team 5h to travel to a tournament in Thunder Bay. They travelled by bus and plane a total distanc
mote1985 [20]
Entire distance = 1,320
Entire time = 5 hours

bus avg = 40 km/h
plane avg = 600 km/h

Working this by trial and error
1 hour bus 4 hour plane = 40 + 2,400 = 2,800 distance (too high)
2 hour bus 3 hour plane = 80 + 1,800 = 1,880 distance (too high)
3 hour bus 2 hour plane = 120 + 1,200 = 1,320 distance (Correct!!)

So, they traveled 3 hours by bus and 2 hours by plane
(yes, you had the right answer).

How do you solve 7a- 17=4a+1
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a = 6

Explanation:

7a − 17 = 4a + 1

Subtract 4a from both sides

7a − 17 − 4a = 4a + 1 − 4a

3a − 17 = 1

Add 17 to both sides

3a − 17 + 17 = 1 + 17

3a = 18

Divide both sides by 3

3a / 3 = 18 / 3

a = 6
