Answer:
2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor out 2x² - 5x-3
divide x - 3 by x - 3
=> 2x + 1
<em><u>Or another step</u></em>
Step by Step Solution

Equation at the end of step 1
STEP
2
:
2x² - 5x - 3/ x - 3
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 2x² - 5x - 3
The first term is, 2x² its coefficient is 2 .
The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -3
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • -3 = -6
Step-2 : Find two factors of -6 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-6 + 1 = -5 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -6 and 1
2x² - 6x + 1x - 3
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
2x • (x-3)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
1 • (x-3)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(2x+1) • (x-3)
Which is the desired factorization
Canceling Out :
2.2 Cancel out (x-3) which appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result :
2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are dealing with theoretical probability. This means that our probability of said outcome is
where x is the outcome we want, and y is the total number of outcomes possible.
28. There is 3 triangles out of 6 polygons so the probability is 1/2.
29.There is 1 Pentagon so the probability is 1/6.
30. This is a complement to question 28. A complement is the inverse of the problem. A complement and its original add to 1 so the probability of both getting a triangle is 1/2.
31. There is 4 non quadraletrial so the probability is 2/3.
32. There is 3 figures that has more sides than three so 1/2 is the probability.
33.There is only multi right angles figures so 1/2 is the probability.
34. There is 30 days in April so the probability it's the 29th is
35. There is 31 days in July and 15 days after the 16th. So the probability
is
