Answer:
2(4x + 1)(x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
8x² + 10x + 2 ← factor out 2 from each term
= 2(4x² + 5x + 1)
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 4 × 1 = 4 and sum = + 5
The factors are + 1 and + 4
Use these factors to split the x - term
4x² + x + 4x + 1 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(4x + 1) + 1 (4x + 1) ← factor out (4x + 1)
= (4x + 1)(x + 1), thus
4x² + 5x + 1 = (4x + 1)(x + 1) and
8x² + 10x + 2 = 2(4x + 1)(x + 1) ← in factored form
X= -6
Y=-1
The x value is minus 6 and the y value is equal to minus 1
The answer is B) 1/4.
There are 2 outcomes in his tree that have all coins with the same side up: HHH and TTT. There are 8 total outcomes. This makes the probability 2/8 = 1/4.
Complete the square:
F(x) = -3x² - 6x - 5
F(x) = -3 (x² + 2x) - 5
F(x) = -3 (x² + 2x + 1 - 1) - 5
F(x) = -3 ((x + 1)² - 1) - 5
F(x) = -3 (x + 1)² + 3 - 5
F(x) = -3 (x + 1)² - 2
The y-intercept has x-coordinate equal to 0, so it corresponds to the value of F(0) :
F(0) = -3 (0 + 1)² - 2 = -3 - 2 = -5
The axis of symmetry is the vertical line running through the vertex of this parabola, so we'll come back to this.
The vertex of the parabola is (-1, -2). This represents the maximum value of F(x), which follows from
(x + 1)² ≥ 0 ⇒ -3 (x + 1)² ≤ 0 ⇒ -3 (x + 1)² - 2 ≤ -2
This is to say, every point on the parabola has a y-coordinate no greater than -2.
As mentioned earlier, the axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex, and its equation is determined by the x-coordinate of the vertex. Hence the AoS is the line x = -1.
