The correct answer to this is that 2.3 -20=-17.7 the answer is resonable because if you go on a number line then you would see that if you start a 2.3 and subtract 20 spaces you get to ----17.7

If 20-2.3=17.7, then if you add 17.7 to 2.3. it equals 20 which is called the communicative property because whatever you add or subtract, the answer is the same
17.7+2.3=2.3+17.7

Factor completely 8x5 2x4 4x2. Prime 2(4x5 x4 2x2) 2x(4x4 x3 2x) 2x2(4x3 x2 2).
Alecsey [184]

The complete factor of the expression \rm 8x^5 + 2x^4 + 4x^2 is \rm 2x^{2} (4x^3 + x^2 + 2 )correct option is D.

<h3>What is a factorization?</h3>

It is the method to separate the polynomial into parts and the parts will be in multiplication. And the value of the polynomial at this point will be zero.

The expression is \rm 8x^5 + 2x^4 + 4x^2.

To solve the expression properly we have to take common (2x²). Then we have

\rm 8x^5 + 2x^4 + 4x^2\\\\2x^{2} (4x^3 + x^2 + 2 )

The factor is \rm 2x^{2} (4x^3 + x^2 + 2 ).

More about the factorization link is given below.

Marisol is being paid $792 to provide nutrition counseling, It took her 8 hours more than she expected, so
olchik [2.2K]

Answer: 44 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marisol is being paid $792.

We know that the job took her 8 hours more than she expected, so if we define T as the time she expected, this job took her:

T + 8 hours.

The amount of money per hour that she expected is calculated as:

$792/T = X

And for those 8 extra hours, she won $4 less per hour, then we have:

$792/(T + 8hs) = X - $4

Then we have a system of equations:

$792/T = X

$792/(T + 8hs) = X - $4

To solve this, we can notice that in the first equation X is isolated, then we could replace that in the second equation to get:

$792/(T + 8hs) = $792/T - $4

Now we can solve this for T.

$792 = ($792/T - $4)*(T + 8hs)  = $792 + $792*(8hs/T) - $4*T + $32*hs

0 = $792*(8hs/T) - $4*T + $32*hs

Let´s multiply this both sides by T

0*T = ($792*(8hs/T) - $4*T + $32*hs)*T

0 = $792*8hs - $4*T^2 +$32*T*hs

This is a quadratic equation, where i will write this witout units so it is easier to read and follow:

0 = -4*T^2 + 32*T + 792*8

The solutions cab be found by using the Bhaskara´s formula, these are:

T = \frac{-32 +- \sqrt[2]{(32^2 - 4*(-4)*(792*8)} }{2*-4}  = \frac{-32 +-320}{-8}

Then the solutions are:

T = (-32 + 320)/-8 = -36 hours (This is a negative time, and it does not really have a meaning in this problem, so we can discard this option)

The other solution is:

T = (-32 - 320)/-8 = 44 hours.

Then we can conclude that she expected the job would take 44 hours in total.
