well, in short, the students and chaperones are at a 2 : 9 ratio, and we know there are 171 students, how many chaperones then, so long they maintain a 2:9 ratio?

M2 -2mn + n2 =
4 - (-16) + 16 =
20 + 16 = 36
Have a nice days.......
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
degree 5
4 is a zero of multiplicity 3 -> (x-4)^3 is a factor
-4 is the only other zero, so the multiplicity is 5-3=2 -> (x+4)^2 is a factor
leading coefficient is 4 so we can write

If there is something that you do not understand or you are blocked somewhere let us know what / where.
Thank you.
Answer:
1) (x + 3)(3x + 2)
2) x= +/-root6 - 1 by 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 + 11x + 6 = 0 (mid-term break)
using mid-term break
3x^2 + 9x + 2x + 6 = 0
factor out 3x from first pair and +2 from the second pair
3x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)
factor out x+3
(x + 3)(3x + 2)
5x^2 + 2x = 1 (completing squares)
rearrange the equation
5x^2 + 2x - 1 = 0
divide both sides by 5 to cancel out the 5 of first term
5x^2/5 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0/5
x^2 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0
rearranging the equation to gain a+b=c form
x^2 + 2x/5 = 1/5
adding (1/5)^2 on both sides
x^2 + 2x/5 + (1/5)^2 = 1/5 + (1/5)^2
(x + 1/5)^2 = 1/5 + 1/25
(x + 1/5)^2 = 5 + 1 by 25
(x + 1/5)^2 = 6/25
taking square root on both sides
root(x + 1/5)^2 = +/- root(6/25)
x + 1/5 = +/- root6 /5
shifting 1/5 on the other side
x = +/- root6 /5 - 1/5
x = +/- root6 - 1 by 5
x = + root6 - 1 by 5 or x= - root6 - 1 by 5
x = player1
y = player 2
z = player 3
y = 2x or 1/2 y =x
y = z-10 or z = y+10
x+y+z=70
substitute x= 1/2 y and z = y+10 into the above equation
1/2y + y + y+10 = 70
2.5 y + 10 = 70
subtract 10 from each side
2.5 y = 60
divide by 2.5 on each side
y = 60/2.5
y =24
x = 1/2 y
x = 1/2 *24 = 12
z = y+10 = 24+10 = 34
The three players scored 12, 24, 34
