How do you factor x^2-5x+4 for the answer

1 answer:

tatiyna3 years ago

Hi there!
In order to factor, start by knowing the variables for each term in the equation ax^2+bx+c
A=1
B=-5
C=4
(Based on the given equation)
In order to factor, we need to find two numbers that add to the b term (-5) but multiply to the c term (4)
-4*-1=4
-4+-1=-5
Therefore, the factored form would be y=(x-4)(x-1)

Hope this helps!

Levart [38]

The correct answer is the graph in the top right corner because it is a constant function. The bottom left graph is also considered a function but is an absolute function. So both are technically correct.

One container is filled with mixture that is 25% acid. A second container is filled with a mixture that is 55% acid. The second

algol13

Answer:

Therefore the third container contains $\frac{735}{17}\%$ = 43.23 % acid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, One container is filled with the mixture that 25% acid. 55% acid is contain by second container.

Let the volume of first container be x cubic unit.

Since the volume of second container is 55% larger than the first.

Then the volume of the second container is

$= (V\times \frac{100+55}{100})$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{155}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in first container is

$=V\times \frac{25}{100}$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{25}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in second container is

$=(\frac{155}{100}V \times \frac{55}{100})$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{8525}{10000}V$ cubic unit.

Total amount of acid $=(\frac{25}{100}V+\frac{8525}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

$=(\frac{2500+8525}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

$=(\frac{11025}{10000}V)$ cubic unit.

Total volume of mixture $=(V+\frac{155}{100}V)$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{100+155}{100}V$ cubic unit.

$=\frac{255}{100}V$ cubic unit.

The amount of acid in the mixture is

$=\frac{\textrm{The volume of acid}}{\textrm{The amount of mixture}}\times 100 \%$

$=\frac {\frac{11025}{10000}V}{\frac{255}{100}V}\times 100\%$

$=\frac{735}{17}\%$

Therefore the third container contains $\frac{735}{17}\%$ acid.

A group of 8 friends went to lunch and spent a total of $76, which included the food bill and a tip of $16. They decided to spli

Rudik [331]

Answer:

1) The equation 1/8(x+16)=76/8 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.

2) The solution x=60 represents the total food bill.

These both answers are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 8 group of friends, and the total amount spent by them is $76 including the tip i.e $16.

If x is the food bill our equation can be:

(x+16)/8 = 76/8

Solving the equation

(x+16)/8 = 9.5

x+16= 9.5*8

x= 76 -16

x= 60

The food bill is x=60.
