Answer:

2(5x - 4)(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

10x^2 + 2x − 8 =

First, factor out the GCF of all terms which is 2.

= 2(5x^2 + x - 4)

5x^2 factors into 5x and x.

= 2(5x )(x )

-4 factors into -4 and 1, -1 and 4, and -2 and 2. Use the set of two factors in the proper positions that will give the middle term.

= 2(5x - 4)(x + 1)

Answer:

$\large \boxed{2(5x-4)(x+1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$10x^2 + 2x - 8$

Rewrite 2x as 10x - 8x.

$10x^2 + 10x-8x - 8$

Factor out the two groups.

$10x(x+1)-8(x+1)$

Take x+1 as a common factor.

$(10x-8)(x+1)$

Factor 10x - 8.

$2(5x-4)(x+1)$

Samantha puts an initial $500 into a savings account. The account has a 4% annual compound interest rate. What is the function t

konstantin123 [22]

Hello! I can help you with this!

a. The function that would best represent Samantha's account is f(5) = 500(1 + 0.04)^5. This is because $500 is the principal, the interest rate is 4%, and we're looking for the amount in the savings account 5 years later.

b. Okay. 1 = 0.04 is 1.04. 1.04^5 is 1.216652902. It's a long decimal, but don't delete it. Multiply that decimal by 500 and you get 608.32645 and other numbers behind it or 608 when rounded to the nearest dollar. Samantha will have about $608 in her savings account in 5 years.

Note: The formula goes like this: f(x) = P(1 + r)^x. This means, you add 1 and the simple interest rate in decimal form together and raise that up by the exponent. There is no shortcuts for this, so you'll have to use the calculator. There will be a very long decimal, but don't clear it. Instead, multiply it by the principal to get the answer. It seems very complicating, but if you do this right, it gets easier overtime and you'll make less errors. There are more complex problems out there, so this formula is very important, but it was kept simple for this question.

Answer: Not 100% sure but this is what I think.

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5, -1) (15, −9)

1Y - 2Y / 1X - 2X = SLOPE

-1 + 9 / 5 - 15 = 8/-10 = -8/10 = -4/5
