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

<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 train travels train travels 288 kilometre at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 4 kilometre per hour more it would have ta
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Let the speed of the train be x km/h.

Case 1:

Distance = 288 km

Speed = x km/h

Time = Distance/Speed

= 288/x h

Case 2:

Distance = 288 km

Speed = (x+4) km/h

Time = 288/x + 4 h

Since 288/x > 288/x + 4

288/x - 288/x+4 = 1

288[1/x - 1/x+4 ] = 1

[ x + 4 - x / x(x + 4) ] = 1/288

[4 / x^2 + 4x ] = 1/288

x^2 + 4x = 1152

x^2 + 4x - 1152 = 0

x^2 + 36x - 32x - 1152 = 0

x(x + 36) - 32(x + 36) = 0

(x + 36)(x - 32) = 0

x + 36 = 0 , x - 32 = 0

x = -36 , x = 32

x = -36 , rejected since speed cannot be negative.

Therefore , speed of the train = 32 km/h
