8p² - 16p = 10
8p² - 16p - 10 = 0 Divide through by 2
4p² - 8p - 5 = 0
Multiply first and last coefficients: 4*-5 = -20
We look for two numbers that multiply to give -20, and add to give -8
Those two numbers are 2 and -10.
Check: 2*-10 = -20 2 + -10 = -8
We replace the middle term of -8p in the quadratic expression with 2p -10p
4p² - 8p - 5 = 0
4p² + 2p - 10p - 5 = 0
2p(2p + 1) - 5(2p + 1) = 0
(2p + 1)(2p - 5) = 0
2p + 1 = 0 or 2p + 5 = 0
2p = 0 -1 2p = 0 - 5
2p = -1 2p = -5
p = -1/2 p = -5/2
The solutions are p = -1/2 or -5/2

-18
Step-by-step explanation:
F(x) is most likely the f(f(x)x) where f(x) is g(x))f)) and composition can be 69 + 46 which is the total of 137
Let us assume base of the window = b feet.
Height is 3 feet less than base, that is = (b-3).
Given area of the triangle = 20 feet square.
We know formula for area of a triangle:
Area = 
× Base × Height
Plugging values in formula, we get
20 = 
Factoring quadratic, we get
=0
b+5=0
b=-5
b-8=0
b=8.
For base we can take only positive value.
<h3>Therefore, base of the triangle = 8 feet and height = 8 -3 = 5 feet.</h3>
Answer:
Ben has mixed up the digit for millions and hundred thousands: he wrote 5 in the place for millions and 6 in the place for hundred thousands, but it should be the other way. I think that he should exchange those two digits in the faulty report.
