Factored form of an expression is writing it in the terms of multiplication of factors. The factors of given expression are: (7x+4)  and (x-1)

<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 - \beta

The given expression is 7x^2 - 3x - 4

Comparing it with the standard form of quadratic expression ax^2 + bx + c, we get: a = 7, b = -3, c = -4

ac = -28

-28 = -2 times 14

-28 = -7 times 4 (-7 + 4 = -3 = b)

Thus, \alpha = -7, \beta = 4

Thus, we get:

7x^2 - 3x - 4 = 7x^2 - 7x + 4x - 4 = 7x(x-1) + 4(x-1)  = (7x+4)(x-1)\\7x^2  - 3x  - 4 = (7x+4)(x-1)

Thus, The factors of given expression are: (7x+4)  and (x-1)

Use the relationship between the angles in the
erastovalidia [21]

The 3 angles when added together make a straight line which is 180 degrees. To find x subtract the 2 known angles from 180.

The answer would be x = 180 - (67 + 52)

In a recent​ year, an author wrote 169 checks. Use the Poisson distribution to find the probability​ that, on a randomly selecte
grigory [225]
We should first calculate the average number of checks he wrote per day.  To do that, divide 169 by 365 (the number of days in a year) and you get (rounded) 0.463.  This will be λ in our Poisson distribution.  Our formula is
P(X=k)= \frac{ \lambda ^{k}-e^{-\lambda} }{k!}.  We want to evaluate this formula for X≥1, so first we must evaluate our case at k=0.  
P(X=0)= \frac{0.463 ^{0}-e ^{-0.463} }{0!} \\ = \frac{1-e ^{-0.463} }{1} =0.3706
To find P(X≥1), we find 1-P(X<1).  Since the author cannot write a negative number of checks, this means we are finding 1-P(X=0).  Therefore we have 1-0.3706=0.6294.
There is a 63% chance that the author will write a check on any given day in the year.<em />

A machine needs 2 of its gears replaced. You find 2 gears, one manufactured 5 years ago and the other manufactured 10 years ago.
Tcecarenko [31]
Probability that gear 1 will fail = 5/100 (upto 10 years) 
and 8/100 (after 10 years)

Probability that both will fail = 5/100 * 8/100
= 40/10000
= 0.4 %
