Answer: -1
Step-by-step explanation: First, factor out 3.6. You should get -m+3. Since the coefficient is just the number being multiplied to the variable (which is m here), your coefficient should be -1 because m is being multiplied to -1 to make -m. Hope this helps!
No one can help you if you dont show us the work my dude. But the was to convert them is say you have 1/4 that is 25% of a whole. Sorry i couldnt help more repost the question with a link and people can help then.
PART A:
The given quadratic equation is 2x²-10x-8=0
The radicand is given by b²-4ac where a, b, and c are the constants in a quadratic form ax²+bx+c
From the given equation, we have
a = 2
b = -10
c = -8
Radicand b²-4ac = (-10)² - 4(2)(-8) = 100 + 64 = 164
The radicand is >0 hence the quadratic equation has two distinct roots
PART B:
4x²-12x+5 = 0
We can use the factorization method to solve the equation
Firstly, we multiply 4 by 5 to get 20
Then we find the pair of numbers that multiply gives 20 and sum gives -12
The pair of number is -2 and -10
Rewriting the equation
4x²-2x-10x+5 = 0
2x(2x-1)-5(2x-1) = 0
(2x-1)(2x-5) = 0
2x-1 = 0 and 2x-5 = 0
x = 1/2 and x = 5/2
Consider the number 480 in expanded form:
... 480 = 4×100 + 8×10
The left-most digit and multiplier are those that correspond to the ones you use in scientific notation.. You recall that 100 = 10×10 = 10². All this means is that
... 480 = 4.8×10²
