Mathematics
1 answer:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

GCF = 3

Factor out the GCF ( Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF)

3(3x^2/3 + -12x/3 - 15/3)

Simplify each term in parentheses

3(x^2 - 4x - 5)

Factor x^2 - 4x - 5

<u>3(x - 5)(x + 1)</u>

Answer:

  2)  (b) -7

  3)  (b) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

2) The sum is found by adding the numbers together. Your calculator can help if you can't do it in your head. I usually find it easier to add the positive and negative numbers separately. Of course the 0 can be ignored.

  18 + 0 -4 -12 +6 -15 = (18 +6) -(4 +12 +15) = 24 -31 = -7

__

3) Apparently, we are to assume that George's percentage will apply to the next 40 pitches. Then ...

  (number missed)/(number thrown) = 35%

  missed = (thrown)×0.35 = 40×0.35 = 14

George is expected to miss 14 of the 40 pitches.

You have torn a tendon and are facing surgery to repair it. the surgeon explains the risks to you: the probability of infection
skad [1K]
P(most favorable outcome) = 1 -(0.03 +0.16 -0.01) = 0.82

_____
"repair fails" includes the "infection and failure" case, as does "infection". By adding the probability of "repair fails" and "infection", we count the "infection and failure" case twice. So, we have to subtract the probability of "infection and failure" from the sum of "repaire fails" and "infection" in order to count each bad outcome only once.

The probability of a good outcome is the complement of the probability of a bad outcome.

Radio tower had a special on rechargeable batteries. It sold AA for $1 and AAA for $0.75. It sold 42 batteries on a single day a
PIT_PIT [208]
AA = $1
AAA= $0.75

AA + AAA = 42

$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37

AA + AAA = 42
AA + AAA-AAA= 42- AAA
AA = 42- AAA

$1(42- AAA) + $0.75AAA= $37
$42 - AAA +0.75AAA = $37
$42 -0.25AAA= $37
$42-$42 -0.25AAA= $37 -$42
-0.25AAA= -5
-0.25AAA/-0.25 = -5/-0.25
AAA= 20

AA + AAA= 42
AA + 20 = 42
AA +20 -20 = 42-20
AA= 22

Check
$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37
$1(22)+ $0.75(20)= $37
$22 + $15 =$37
$37 = $37

How do you add add fraction with a different denominator?
kenny6666 [7]

Find the LCM (least common multiple) of the denominators, and use that as the denominator for the two fractions.

Ex.

\frac{3}{4} +\frac{2}{3}

LCM (3, 4) is 12

\frac{9}{12} +\frac{8}{12}

=\frac{17}{12}
