7x³ = 28x is our equation. We want its solutions.
When you have x and different powers, set the whole thing equal to zero.
7x³ = 28x
7x³ - 28x = 0
Now notice there's a common x in both terms. Let's factor it out.
x (7x² - 28) = 0
As 7 is a factor of 7 and 28, it too can be factored out.
x (7) (x² - 4) = 0
We can further factor x² - 4. We want a pair of numbers that multiply to 4 and whose sum is zero. The pairs are 1 and 4, 2 and 2. If we add 2 and -2 we get zero.
x (7) (x - 2) (x + 2) = 0
Now we use the Zero Product Property - if some product multiplies to zero, so do its pieces.
x = 0 -----> so x = 0
7 = 0 -----> no solution
x - 2 = 0 ----> so x = 2 after adding 2 to both sides
x + 2 = 0 ---> so = x - 2 after subtracting 2 to both sides
Thus the solutions are x = 0, x = 2, x = -2.
Answer: X= 25 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is 180 degrees.
115+40=165
180-165=25 degrees
Choice C for problem 6 is correct. The two angles (65 and 25) add to 90 degrees, proving they are complementary angles.
===========================================
The answer to problem 7 is also choice C and here's why
To find the midpoint, we add up the x coordinates and divide by 2. The two points A(-5,3) and B(3,3) have x coordinates of -5 and 3 respectively. They add to -5+3 = -2 which cuts in half to get -1. This means C has to be the answer as it's the only choice with x = -1 as an x coordinate.
Let's keep going to find the y coordinate of the midpoint. The points A(-5,3) and B(3,3) have y coordinates of y = 3 and y = 3, they add to 3+3 = 6 which cuts in half to get 3. The midpoint has the same y coordinate as the other two points
So that is why the midpoint is (-1,3)
Answer:
Population is the total number of people that fall into the description of those that the research concerns.
In this case, Population is: Everyone who signed a card saying that they intend to quit smoking.
Sample. This is a subset of the population that the research is based on.
Sample = 1,000 people surveyed.
Parameter and Statistic are both descriptive measures but parameter is for the population and statistic is for the sample.
Parameter = Percentage of total population who have not smoked in 6 months.
Statistic = 21% of sample who have not smoked in 3 months.
Answer:
w=40
Step-by-step explanation:
120*1/3=40
Therefore, w=40
