The Reach French Club is raising money for a trip to Strasbourg. They have some money already, and will raise $700 per month for

x months.
Their fundraising progress is modeled by the function $8000 = $1200 + $700x.

What is the meaning of 1200 in this equation?

A They started with $1200.They started with $1200.
B They will raise $1200 per month.They will raise $1200 per month.
C They will save money for 1200 months.They will save money for 1200 months.
D They have a goal of $1200 total.

Function : $8000 = $1200 + $700x

They will raise $700 per month for x months -> $700x is the amount of money they raise per month.

Since $8000 is the sum in the function, it is the goal.
Therefore, $1200 in this case means they started with $1200.

If x^2-x-6 and x^2+3x-18 hacpve a common factor (x-a) then find the value of a.​
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor both expressions

x² - x - 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)

The factors are - 3 and + 2 , since

- 3 × 2 = - 6 and - 3 + 2 = - 1 , thus

x² - x - 6 = (x - 3)(x + 2)

-----------------------------------

x² + 3x - 18

consider factors of constant term (- 18) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 3)

The factors are + 6 and - 3 , since

6 × - 3 = - 18 and 6 - 3 = + 3 , thus

x² + 3x - 18 = (x + 6)(x - 3)

Both expressions have a common factor of (x - 3)

Compare with (x - a ), then a = 3

Factor each of the following. Remember: It is the reverse of the distributive property and your first step is to find the greate
vaieri [72.5K]
To factor using the reverse of the distributive property, find what common factor the numbers have and what common factor the variables have.

10.

-8x - 16

8 is a factor of both -8 and 16.
The first term has x, but the second term does not, so there is no common variable. The only common factor is 8, or -8.

Factor out a -8:

-8x - 16 = -8(x + 2)

To see if the factorization is correct, multiply the answer using the distributive property. If you get the original expression, then the factorization is correct.

11.

w^2 - 4w

The first term only has a factor of 1. The second term has a 4. There is no common factor between 1 and 4 except for 1, so there is no number you can factor out. The first term has w^2. The second term has w. Both terms have a common factor of w. We can factor out w from both terms.

w^2 - 4w = w(w - 4)

12.

4s + 10rs

4 and 10 have a common factor of 2.
s and rs have a common factor of s.
2 times s is 2s, so the common factor is 2s.
We now factor out 2s

4s + 10rs = 2s(2 + 5r)

The vertex of this parabola is at (2,-4). When the y-value is -3, the x-value is
Fed [463]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

here (h, k) = (2, - 4), thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 4

To find a substitute (- 3, - 3) into the equation

- 3 = a(- 3 - 2)² - 4

- 3 = 25a - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

1 = 25a ( divide both sides by 25 ), hence

a = \frac{1}{25}

y = \frac{1}{25} (x - 2)² - 4 ← in vertex form

  = \frac{1}{25} (x² - 4x + 4) - 4 ← in expanded form

Hence the coefficient of the x² term is \frac{1}{25}
