I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The <span>system can be changed so that the two equations have equal x-coefficients by multiplying </span><span>both sides of the top equation by 2 resulting to 6x + 4y = 24. Hope this answers the question.</span>
We need to find two numbers that multiply to 24 (last coefficient) and add to 10 (middle coefficient). Through trial and error, the two values are 6 and 4
6 + 4 = 10
6*4 = 24
So we can break up the 10ab into 6ab+4ab and then use factor by grouping
a^2 + 10ab + 24b^2
a^2 + 6ab + 4ab + 24b^2
(a^2+6ab) + (4ab+24b^2)
a(a+6b) + 4b(a+6b)
(a+4b)(a+6b)
Therefore, the original expression factors completely to (a+4b)(a+6b)
16.2-15.8/0.6=0.6667. Use normalcdf() to find the percentage from -999 to 0.6777 which is 0.7476*625=467
The horizontal stretch is the correct answer. A period is the distance on the x-axis that it takes for the tangent or cotangent function to repeat itself. Stretching it out horizontally will lengthen that distance and therefore change the period.
