Answer:  1. {-2, -3}   2. {-5, 5}   3. {-3, 5}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) First, factor the equation by finding two numbers whose product is 6 and sum is 5.  Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for m.

m² + 5m + 6 = 0

                 ∧

                1 + 6 = 7

                2 + 3 = 5   This works!

        (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0

x + 2 = 0      x + 3 = 0

     x = -2           x = -3

2) Factor out the GCF of 5. Notice the remaining factor is the difference of squares (because the middle term is missing and the first and last terms are perfect squares. Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for p.

5p² - 125 = 0

5(p² - 25) = 0

5(p +5)(p - 5) = 0

5 ≠ 0    p+ 5 = 0         p - 5 = 0

                 p = -5              p = 5

3) Factor out the GCF of 2. Factor the equation by finding two numbers whose product is -15 and sum is -2.  Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for x.

2x² - 4x - 30 = 0

2(x² - 2 - 15) = 0

              ∧

             1 - 15 = -14

             3 - 5 = -2    This works!

     (x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

x + 3 = 0     x - 5 = 0

     x = -3          x = 5

What is the mean, median, mode, and range of the numbers 8,15,3,6,13,9
ivolga24 [154]

Hello There!

To find the mean, add up all the numbers and divide according to how many numbers there are. The mean for this set would be <em>"9"</em>

<em></em>

To find the median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle. if there is no middle, add up the two numbers in middle and divide by 2. In this set, the median would be <em>"8.5"</em>

<em></em>

To find the mode or modal value, it is best to put the numbers in order. Then count how many of each number. A number that appears most often is the mode. In this set, there would be no mode.

The range of a set of data is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the set. In this set, the range would be <em>"12"</em>

4. The price of a sweater is $5 less than the price of the shirt. If four sweaters and
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Form an equation:

let x be the price of a shirt

Then, the price of a sweater would be x - 5

So you would have:

4(x - 5) + 3x = 200

simplify

4x - 20 + 3x = 200

7x - 20 = 200

add 20 to both sides

7x = 220

divide both sides by 7

x = about 31.43

That means the cost of the sweater would be 31.43 - 5 = 26.43
