1 answer:
romanna [79]3 years ago

Answer:

-3,8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we can factor this since this quadratic function is in the form of

ax^2+bx+c

where we need to find out what*what=c

and what+what=b

since c is -24 and b is -5 we need to figure out the factors of -24 which equal -5:

-8+3=-5

and

-8*3=-24

hence -8 and 3 is our factors, next we will substitute them in place of "b"

so

n^2-8n+3n-24

split this equation in two groups:

group 1) n^2-8n

group 2) 3n-24

gcf of group 1= n

so

n(n-8)

gcf of group 2: 3

so

3(n-8)

next take numbers outside of parentheses and group them together:

so (n+3) (n-8)=0

since  anything times 0 is equal to 0, either (n+3) is 0 or (n-8) is 0

so

n+3=0

n=-3

n-8=0

n=8

hence n=-3,8

Hope this helps!

Solve for the smallest value of $x$ such that $24x^2 + 17x - 20 = 0.$ Express your answer as a simplified common fraction.
Gala2k [10]
X=5/8 or x=-4/3 
here is the work if needed...
24x^2+17x-20=0
Step one: Factor left side of equation.
(8x-5)(3x-4)=0
Step two: Set factor equal to 0.
8x-5=0 or 3x-4=0
x=5/8 or x=-4/3

To transmit information on the internet, large files are broken into packets of smaller sizes. Each packet has 1,500 bytes of in
erastova [34]

Answer: x= 187.5p

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An equation relating packets to bytes of information : b = 1,500p where<em> p</em> represents the number of packets and <em>b</em> represents the number of bytes of information.

1 byte = 8 bits

Let x= Number of bits such that 1 b = 8x

Put b = 8x in given equation , we get

8x=1500p

Divide both sides by 8 , we get

x= 187.5p

Hence, the equation represent the relationship between the number of packets and the number of bits : x= 187.5p
