Sari is teaching her best friend how to factor trinomials with a leading coefficient greater than 1. She starts with the trinomi

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

See explanation

$2x^2+5x+3=(x+1)(2x+3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as

$2x^2+5x+3$

2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.

In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.

3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:

$2\cdot 3=6$

4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:

$6=1\cdot 6\\ \\ \bf{6=2\cdot 3}$

5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:

$2+3=5$

6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:

$2x^2+5x+3=2x^2+2x+3x+3$

7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:

$2x^2 +2x+3x+3=(2x^2+2x)+(3x+3)=2x(x+1)+3(x+1)=(x+1)(2x+3)$

A baseball player reaches first base 30% of the time he is at bat.out of 50 times at bat,about how many times will the player re

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

15 times

Step-by-step explanation:

If he bats 50 times, he will be expected to reach first base "30% of the time".

We simply need to find "what is 30% of 50?"

We first need to convert the percentage (30%) to decimal and then multiply that with 50 to get our answer.

Converting percentage to decimal is very simple! We divide by 100. That's it!

So, we have:

30% = 30/100 = 0.3

Now we do the multiplication:

0.3 * 50 = 15

So, the player would reach first base 15 times (out of 50 times of batting)

Constructing Parallel Lines

Orlov [11]

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The slope of the lines is -1, and the equation of the parallel line is y-x-6.

<h3>What is the equation of a line?</h3>

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of a line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

The parallel line passes through the points (-4,-2) and (-3,-3). Therefore, the slope of the line is,

Slope = (-2 + 3) / (-4 + 3) = 1/-1 = -1

The equation of the parallel line that is passing through point P is,

y = mx + c

y = -x + c

-3 = -(-3) + c

-3 -3 = c

c = -6

Hence, the slope of the lines is -1, and the equation of the parallel line is y-x-6.
