Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the square root of 5, which is 2.236, aka not a rational number. It doesn't come out to a whole number so therefore there is no rational solution
A scale factor of 1.25, also written as 1 1/4 should be used
Its 139, pretty sure u knew that, besides that, u guys r pretty and ik this joke i’ve seen it on tiktok
Answer:
8/12 yard or 2/3 yard
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two lengths is ...
5/12 yd + 3/12 yd = (5+3)/12 yd = 8/12 yd
This fraction can be reduced by removing a factor of 4 from numerator and denominator.
8/12 yd = 2/3 yd
If the arm portions are end-to-end, the total length is 2/3 yard.
