Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children, then

number of men = 4c and number of women = 2c

Sum the numbers of each and equate to 266

4c + 2c + c = 266, that is

7c = 266 ( divide both sides by 7 )

c = 38

Thus

4 × 38 = 152 and 2 × 38 = 76

The group consists of 38 children, 152 men and 76 women

Answer:

The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is -5·t² + 5·t + 24

To factorize the expression by completing the square method, we equate the expression to zero to get;

-5·t² + 5·t + 24 = 0

WE divide by -5 to get;

t² - t - 24/5 = 0

t² - t = 24/5

t² - t + 1/4 = 24/5 + 1/4

(t - 1/2)² = 5.05

t - 1/2 = ±√5.05

t = 1/2 + √5.05, 1/2 - √5.05

The factorized expression becomes;

(t - 1/2 + √5.05) and (t - 1/2 - √5.05)

Which gives;

(t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)

The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747).
