Answer:
(x - 2)(5x + 3) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 7x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 5 × - 6 = - 30 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 10 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
5x² - 10x + 3x - 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
5x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0 ← factor out (x - 2) from each term
(x - 2)(5x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
5(a + 3b) = 5(9 + 3(2)) = 5(9 + 6) = 5(15) = 75
Answer:
She can fit either the 16 video clips or the two movies
Step-by-step explanation:
He has a 26% of getting a strike, which means he has a 74% chance of not getting a strike ( 100% - 26% = 74%).
Multiply the chance of not getting a strike by the number of attempts:
0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 = 0.22
The answer is B) 0.22
The probability of making a free throw is 77%, the probability of not making one would be 23% ( 100% - 77% = 23%).
Add the probability of making the first one ( 0.77) by the probability of making the second one multiplied by the probability of missing the second one ( 0.77x 0.23)
0.77 + (0.77 x 0.23)
0.77 + 0.18 = 0.95
The answer is D) 95%
