How do you factor this trinomial 4a^2-4a+1

Mathematics
1 answer:
ElenaW [278]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(2a-1)(2a-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the factored form, multiply a*c from the standard form ax^2+bx+c. Here it is 4*1 = 4.

Then find factors of 4 that add to b=-4.

4: 1,2,4

-2+-2 = -4

Split the middle term into -2x+-2x and factor by grouping.

4a^2-2a+-2a+1\\(4a^2-2a)+(-2a+1)\\2a(2a-1)-1(2a-1)\\(2a-1)(2a-1)

For the graphed function f(x) = -(5)* - 3 + 2, calculate the average rate of change from x = 3 to x = 4.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change from x=a to x=b of f(x) is \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

The given function is f(x)=-5^{x-3}+2.

f(4)=-5^{4-3}+2=-3.

f(4)=-5^{3-3}+2=1.

The average rate of change from x=3 to x=4 is given by:

\frac{f(4)-f(3)}{4-3}

\frac{-3-1}{4-3}=-4

steposvetlana [31]
The first consignment shows no association between the t-shirt size and the profit. 

In the second consignment, the bigger the t-shirt size, the smaller the profit. There is an inverse relationship between the two variables. 

In the third and fourth consignment, the bigger the size, the larger the profit. There is a direct relationship between the two variables.

3,5,8,12....... state the rule in the sequence​
amm1812

2n + 1

the number before n is the difference (what it goes up in), and the second is the ‘zeroth’ term: you take away the 2 you got from the first value, 3, and get 1 :)
