Answer:

The factors are (x-7)  and  (x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x^{2} -5x-14

To find the factors equate the equation to zero

x^{2} -5x-14=0

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

x^{2} -5x=14

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

x^{2} -5x+6.25=14+6.25

x^{2} -5x+6.25=20.25

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x-2.5)^{2}=20.25

(x-2.5)=(+/-)\sqrt{20.25}

(x-2.5)=(+/-)4.5

x=2.5(+/-)4.5

x=2.5+4.5=7

x=2.5-4.5=-2

therefore

x^{2} -5x-14=(x-7)(x+2)

using a graphing tool see the attached figure

The factors of the quadratic equation are the x-intercepts (values of x when the value of the function is equal to zero)

Michael baked 60 oatmeal cookies and 45 chocolate chip cookies to package in plastic containers for her friends at school. She w
Scrat [10]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael must find the smallest number possible that can divide 60 and 45 then take the two quotients after dividing the 2 types of cookies by the smallest number possible.

2 is not possible as 45 is an odd number

3 can divide both 60 and 45

60/3 = 20 oatmeal cookies in each container.

45/3 = 15 chocolate chip cookies in each container.

Use the drop down menus to describe the relationship between the number of teaspoons and number of tablespoon
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

From the given picture we can see that , 3 teaspoons = 1 table spoon.....(1)

or 3t=b..(2)

6 teaspoon= 2 tablespoon or 6t=2b

9 teaspoon= 3 table spoon or 9t=3b

Therefore the ratio of teaspoon to tablespoon t:b= 3:1...........(from (1))

Now, 1 tea spoon=\frac{1}{3}\ tablespoon..............[divide 3 on both sides of (1)]

or t=\frac{1}{3}b

The equation to show the relation between teaspoons and table spoon is given by (2)

3t=b
