Factor the expression X^2 + 6x + 8

Answer: (x + 4)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're given a trinomial with an x² term, an x term, and a constant term so we can factor it as the product of two binomials.

The first term in each binomial will be a factor of x² and since x² factors as x time x, we use x as the first term in each binomial.

To fill the second position in each binomial, we use the factors of the last term that add together to equal the coefficient of the middle term.

So we're looking for factors of +8 that add to +6.

+8 factors as 8 x 1 or 4 x 2. Since 4 and 2 add together to equal +6, we put a +4 in our first binomial and a +2 in our second binomial and we have our answer (x + 4)(x + 2) which is a factored version of x² + 6x + 8.

To convert a percent into a decimal, you have to divide it by 100\%

1. 45\%\div100\%=0.45
2. 6.75\%\div 100\%=0.0675
3. 85\%\div100\%=0.85
4. 6.5\5\div100\%=0.065
5. 4\%\div100\%=0.04

Mr. Doyle mowed 2\5ths of his lawn. His son mowed 1\3rd of it. Who mowed most of the lawn? How much of the lawn still needs to b
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dad:  2/5

Son:  1/3

<u>Who mowed most of the lawn? </u> Dad, of course.  2/5 is larger than 1/3.  2/5 is 40% and 1/3 is 33.333%

<u>How much of the lawn still needs to be mowed?  </u>

 2/5 + 1/3 + X = 1  [1 means the whole lawn.  X is the remaining portion.]

6/15 + 5/15 + X = 1   [Convert each fraction so that they have a com,mon denominator.  This also shows that 2/5 (6/15) is larger than 1/3 (5/15).

11/15 + X = 1

X = 1 - 11/15

X = 4/15 left to be mowed.

<u>How much does Mr. Doyle have left to mow?</u>

We'll assume each rate is the same, 2/5 for Dad and 1/3 for son.

4/15 left to be mowed.

Dad will mow 2/5 of 4/15, so (2/5)*(4/15) = 8/75 left of the original yard

Son will mow 1/3 of 4/15, so (1/3)*(4/15) = 4/45 left of the original yard
