Option A

$2x^2(6x-1) + 3(6x-1)$ is one way to determine the factors of $12x^3-2x^2+18x-3$ by grouping

Solution:

Factoring by grouping means that you will group terms with common factors before factoring

Given expression is:

$12x^3-2x^2+18x-3$

Group the first two terms together and then the last two terms together.

$(12x^3-2x^2)+(18x-3)$

We can see that $2x^2$ is common in first two terms

And 3 is common in last two terms

Factor them out

$(12x^3-2x^2)+(18x-3) = 2x^2(6x-1) + 3(6x-1)$

$2x^2(6x-1) + 3(6x-1)$

Thus option A is correct

Sammy Sales had the following receipts for his tree trimming business for the first six months of the year. What is the average

fredd [130]

$average = \frac{sum \: \: of \: \:all \: \: obeservations}{no. \: \: of \: observaions}$

$= \frac{1205 + 1450 + 1530 + 1655 + 1610 + 1710}{6}$

$= \frac{9160}{6}$

$= 1526.66$

___________________________________________

1526.66 is the average of his sales for this period.

What is the completely factored form of f(x) = 6x3 – 13x2 – 4x + 15?

masya89 [10]

We have to determine the complete factored form of the given polynomial

$f(x)=6x^3-13x^2-4x+15$ .

Let x= -1 in the given polynomial.

So, $f(-1)= 6(-1)^3-13(-1)^2-4(-1)+15 = -6-13+4+15 = 0$

So, by factor theorem

(x+1) is a factor of the given polynomial.

So, dividing the given polynomial by (x+1), we get quotient as $6x^2-19x+15$ .

So, $6x^3-13x^2-4x+15$ = (x+1) $6x^2-19x+15$ .

= $(x+1)(6x^2-10x-9x+15)$

= $(x+1)[ 2x(3x-5)-3(3x-5)]$

= $(x+1)(2x-3)(3x-5)$ is the completely factored form of the given polynomial.

Option D is the correct answer.

What is the solution for this inequality? 5x ≤ 45

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

$x\leq 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the inequality:

$5x\leq 45$

Divide both sides by 5:

$x\leq 9$

And, we're done!

This means that the solution of the inequality is all values less than or equal to 9.

I hope this helps!

Which products result in a perfect square trinomial? Select three. (-x+9)(-x-9), (xy+x)(xy+x), (2x-3)(-3+2x), (16-x^2)(x^2-16),

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(2x-3)(-3+2x),(16-x^2)(x²-16),4y^2+25)(25+4y^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that the rest of the products didn't make a perfect square cause they don´t aren´t squared,I also know that they are the odd ones out among the rest of the product so yeah,I am not too sure if I got it right...sorry if I didn´t.
