Factor the trinomial. x^2-4x-5

Mathematics

<h3>Answer: Choice C.  (x+1)(x-5)</h3>

We need to find two numbers that

  • Multiply to -5 (last term)
  • Add to -4 (middle coefficient)

Through trial and error, those two numbers are 1 and -5

  • 1 times -5 = -5
  • 1 plus -5 = -4

So this means x^2-4x-5 factors to (x+1)(x-5)

This is the same as (x-5)(x+1) since the order of multiplication doesn't matter.

A savings account earns 5% simple interest per year. The principal is $1200. What is the balance after 4 years?
stiv31 [10]
The formula of the Simple Interest is:
I=PRT
P for Principle Amount     ($1200)
R for Rate                        (5%=\frac{5}{100} = 0.05)
T for Time in years          (4 years)
I = 1200 × 0.05 × 4
  = $240

Add the interest to the principle amount to check the balance
$1200 + $240 = $1440
