Answer:

(5 c + 4) (3 c + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

15 c^2 + 37 c + 20

Factor the quadratic 15 c^2 + 37 c + 20. The coefficient of c^2 is 15 and the constant term is 20. The product of 15 and 20 is 300. The factors of 300 which sum to 37 are 12 and 25. So 15 c^2 + 37 c + 20 = 15 c^2 + 25 c + 12 c + 20 = 5 (5 c + 4) + 3 c (5 c + 4):

5 (5 c + 4) + 3 c (5 c + 4)

Factor 5 c + 4 from 5 (5 c + 4) + 3 c (5 c + 4):

Answer: (5 c + 4) (3 c + 5)

Answer:

The distribution is skewed, so use the five-number summary. range: 38, median: 16, half of the data are between 9.5 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached the histogram is shown. We can see that data is skewed to the right, so we have to use the five-number summary. The range of the data is 39 - 1 = 38 (subtraction of the maximum value to the minimum value); the median is (15 + 17)/2 = 16 (if you order the values, 15 and 17 are in the middle); quartile 1 is 9.25 and quartile 3 is 25.5 (see diagram of box and whisker attached), then half of the data are between those values.
