The bookstore owner can make six packages. There will be eight science fiction books and five mystery books in each package. This is because 6 is the highest common factor of both 48 and 30, and 6 x 8 = 48 and 6 x 5 = 30.

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this
Illusion [34]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 13x + 30

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 30) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 13)

The factors are - 3 and - 10, since

- 3 × - 10 = + 30 and - 3 - 10 = - 13 , thus

x² - 13x + 30 = (x - 3)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Thus (x - 3) is a factor of the polynomial → A

The graph of h(x) is shown. Graph of h of x that begins in quadrant two and decreases rapidly following the vertical line which
fgiga [73]

Answer:

<u>x-intercept</u>

The point at which the curve <u>crosses the x-axis</u>, so when y = 0.

From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to cross the x-axis when x = -4, so the x-intercept is (-4, 0)

<u>y-intercept</u>

The point at which the curve <u>crosses the y-axis</u>, so when x = 0.

From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to cross the y-axis when y = -1, so the y-intercept is (0, -1)

<u>Asymptote</u>

A line which the curve gets <u>infinitely close</u> to, but <u>never touches</u>.

From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to get infinitely close to but never touches the vertical line at x = -5, so the vertical asymptote is x = -5

(Please note:  we cannot be sure that there is a horizontal asymptote at y = -2 without knowing the equation of the graph, or seeing a larger portion of the graph).

How do I complete this equation
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

130°

Step-by-step explanation:

All the interior angles should add up to 540 degrees because it's a pentagon

∠T ≅∠S, so ∠T is also 115°

∠P and ∠R are both 90°

Add everything up and solve for ∠Q:

115 + 115 + 90 + 90 + m∠Q = 540

410 + m∠Q = 540

m∠Q = 130°
