When is factoring by grouping easier to use. How many terms must you have to have ?

1 answer:

3 0

You must have 4 terms for factoring by grouping to be easier to use.

For example...
x^2 + 10x + 2x + 20
(x^2 + 10x) + (2x + 20)
x(x+10) + 2(x+10)
(x+2)(x+10)

The first line, the expression x^2+10x+2x+20, has four terms.

Note: Just because you have four terms doesn't automatically guarantee you can factor

Jerome is going to draw a marble from the bag shown below, replace it, and then draw another marble. What is the probability tha

alexira [117]

Marbles in a bag: 3 green, 4 yellow, 5 blue, 8 pink.

Event A - get a green or yellow marble
Event B - get a pink marble

Events A and B are independent because we draw a marble from a bag with 20 marbles in both cases.
$P(A)= \frac{3+4}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{7}{20} 
\\P(B)= \frac{8}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

Probability of combined events is
$P(A) \times P(B)=\frac{7}{20} \times \frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{50}$

Which of these graphs is the solution set for the equation y = -3x - 2?

Gala2k [10]

A because y=-3x-2 has these transformations
The negative before the 3 means the slope is going down
The 3 means it goes 3 down every time it goes right one, the number before the x is the slope and slope is rise over run, 3 = 3/1 so it would normally mean it goes up 3 every time it goes right one but because the 3 is negative it means the line goes down
The negative two at the end moves the line down two, if it were plus two the line would go up two, the number in this spot is what determines the vertical translation

Put it all together and you get the line has goes down 3 every time it goes right one and crosses the y axis at -2

P.S. wouldn't mind getting brainliest
