Integers are whole numbers.

mixed number are whole numbers plus fractions...that when simplified, become improper fractions
2 1/2 = 5/2....this is not an integer or a whole number
3 1/4 = 13/4....same here...not an integer or a whole number
4 1/3 = 13/3...not an integer or a whole number

Which of the following are factors of x^2+5x+4

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

(x + 4) and (x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 5x + 4

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 4) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are 4 and 1 , since

4 × 1 = 4 and 4 + 1 = 5 , then

x² + 5x + 4 = (x + 4)(x + 1) ← in factored form

Solve the proportion. 2/8 = -30/x

tino4ka555 [31]

To solve a proportion set it up like
$\frac{2}{8} = -\frac{30}{x}$

Now cross multiply the -30 and the 8 so -30 x 8 = -240
Now take the -240 and divide it by 2
$\frac{-240}{2} = -120$
So x = -120

Answer = 120
