4x² + 2x - 30 = 0
<span>
factor out the GCF:
</span>2(2x² + x - 15) = 0
<span>
factor the trinomial completely:
2x</span>² + x - 15 = 0
2x² + 6x - 5x - 15 = 0
2x(x + 3) - 5(x + 3) = 0
(2x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

<span>use the zero product property and set each factor equal to zero and solve:
2x - 5 = 0     or     x + 3 = 0
2x = 5                   x = -3
x = 2.5

</span><span>The roots of the function are x=-3,  x=2.5</span>

Factor out the GCF of "2."  Next factor the trinomial completely. The equation becomes "0=2(2x-5)(x+3)." Use the zero product property and set each factor equal to zero and solve. The roots of the function are "-3 and 5/2."

Hope this helps!

Solve for x in the equation x2+2x+1=17
agasfer [191]

The left side can be written as a square. We can take the square root, then subtract 1.

... (x +1)² = 17

... x +1 = ±√17

... x = -1 ±√17

Factor completely 5c5 + 60c4 + 180c3.
Mrac [35]
5c^5 + 60c^4 + 180c^3

find the GCF, 5c³

5c³(5c^5 + 60c^4 + 180c^3/ 5c^3)

5c³(c² + 12c + 36)

5c³(c² + 2(c)(6) + 6²)

5c³(c + 6)² <<< the answer.

hope this helps, God bless!

.A bag contains 3 red checkers and 5 black checkers. A checker is selected, kept out of the bag, and then another checker is sel
cupoosta [38]

Answer: 15 / 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red checkers = 3

Number of black checkers = 5

Total number of checkers = 8

P(black, then red) = 5/8 × 3/7 = 15/56

We should note that the probability to pick a black checker first will be 5 out of 8. Then, there'll be 7 checkers left and the probability to pick a res checker will be 3/7. We then multiply the probabality of each together.

Which equation could have the graph shown below? y = (x – 4)(x – 1)(2 + x)(3 + x) y = (x – 4)(1 – x)(2 + x)(3 + x) y = (x + 4)(x
Paul [167]
These functions are expressed in the factored form: what this means is that say for the first one y=(x-4)(x-1)(2+x)(3+x) ... when x=4, the first bracket becomes 0. Same for x=1, x=-2, x=-3 ... 

If you were to graph this, you would see that the function's line interesects the x-axis at these points... when x=4, when x=1, etc etc.

Thus, take a look at the zeroes of the graph. At which x points do they interscet the x-axis? You can determine the equation of your graph by this.
