Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> 1 • 4 = 4</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span> </span></span>
<span><span>-4 + -1 = -5</span><span> -2 + -2 = -4 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and -2
<span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
b • (b-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(b-2) • (b-2)
Which is the desired factorization
First: Find out how many of Jolie's balls are blue.
300 * 35% = 300 * 0.35 = 105 blue balls.
Second: Find the difference between the total number of balls and the blue balls to find out how many green balls Jolie has.
300 - 105 = 195 green balls.
Answer: C. X + 44
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the unknown number.
Given statement : "44 more than an unknown number".
By using addition operation ,
Mathematical expression for "44 more than an unknown number" = 44 +x
Hence, the correct expression is x+44.
So, the correct option is C.
Answer:
3*sqrt(3x)
--------------
2x
Step-by-step explanation:
To rationalize the denominator, we need to get rid of the square root. We need to multiply by sqrt(12x)/sqrt(12x)
9 sqrt(12x)
---------- * -----------
sqrt(12x) sqrt(12x)
9sqrt(12x)
-----------------
12x
We can cancel 3 in the top and bottom
3sqrt(12x)
---------------
4x
We also notice that 12 is made up of 4 and 3
3sqrt(4) sqrt(3x)

4x
3sqrt(4) sqrt(3x)

4x
We can cancel a 2 in the top and bottom
3*sqrt(3x)
--------------
2x
