How do you factor this equation? 7x²+5x-3

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic expression.  Use the quadratic formula to find the roots, and then once you have the roots, write the corresponding factors.

The coefficients of this quadratic expression are a = 7, b = 5 and c = -3

The discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 5^ - 4(7)(-3), or 25 + 84 = 109.  Because this is positive, we know that the expression has two unequal, real roots.

Using the quadratic formula, we now find these roots:

      -b ± √(discriminant)

x = --------------------------------   which here is:

                   2a

      -5 ± √109

x = -----------------

             14

The factors can be found from these two roots.  The first one is

      -5 - √109                  5 + √109

(x - ---------------- )  =  (x + ---------------- )

             14                              14

and the second is

        5 - √109              

(x + ---------------- )  

             14

Four families went out for lunch. The total food
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Each family spent about 34.25 on dinner

Step-by-step explanation:

$167 - $30 (tip) = 137

137 ÷  4 (for each family) = 34.25

BUT

if each family is seperate than they each spent about 11.75 on dinner

167 - (30 x 4) = 47

47 ÷  4 = 11.75

I'm pretty sure the first one is the answer though

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Edgar rolls two six-sided number cubes. What is the probability that he rolls a 2 on
frutty [35]

Answer:

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 given the sample space is . 9/36, or 1/4.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 = cubes that have a sum of 9 / total number of cubes

9/36 = 1/4

Of the 50 students in an undergraduate statistics class, 60% send email and/or text messages during any given lecture. They have
sasho [114]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since no innocent student will ever be caught, the probability that a student sends an email and/or text message during a lecture AND gets caught is given by the product of the probability of a student sending a message (60%) by the probability of the professor catching them (50%) :

P = 0.5*0.6 = 0.3

The probability is 0.3 or 30%.
