Houw would i factor this problem out completely?

kvasek [131]

You can factor out a 3t first, resulting in:
$3t(2t^2+3t-5)$

Now, let's factor the equation in the middle using the quadratic equation. Plug in the values to the quadratic equation:
$\frac{-3\pm \sqrt{3^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2)} = -\frac{3\pm \sqrt{49}}{4} = -\frac{3\pm 7}{4}$

Simplify, you get your x's:
$x = 1, -\frac{5}{2}$

To write the equation in simplified form, you just write it this way:
$3t(x-1)(2x+5)$

That's your answer ^

What is -3/11 as a decimal

Marianna [84]

It is possible to convert a fraction to a decimal in mathematics. First, -3/11 is a fraction. To convert a fraction which is -3/11, divide 3 by 11 which you get .272727... and you get the idea. The '27' repeats. Therefore, the answer would be -.27 with a Vinculum symbol which is a horizontal line above the number to indicate its repeating. Also, don't forget to put a negative sign!
