<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.

JulijaS [17]

The measure of center that would best describe a typical value of the data set is a mean since the values are close.

<h3>What is a measure of center?</h3>

It should be noted that the measure of center include the mean, median, mode, and the mid-range.

In this case, when there is a close distribution of different numbers, he beta measurement will be the mean.

Therefore, the mean of the numbers will be:

= (20 + 21 + 21 + 25 + 20 + 23 + 27 + 23 + 24 + 25 + 26 + 24 + 23 + 22 + 24)/15

= 348/15

= 23.2

3 A new club opens with 20 members, plus an unknown number of members from another club. The club allows only members to join on
Marina86 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the unknown members be X

At first, the club had 20 + X members

After the first year,

2( 20+X)

The second year,

2( 20 +X/2) +40

The third year,

3[2(20+ X/2) +40]

Total number =

20+X + 2(20+X) + 2( 20 +X/2) +40 +3[2(20+ X/2) +40]

= 20+ X + 40+ 2X + 40 +2X/2 +40 +3[40+2X/2 +40]

= 20+40+X +2X +40+X+ 40 + 3[ 40+40+X]

= 60 +3X +80+X + 3[80+X]

= 140+4X + 240+3X

=380 + 7X

-380=7X

X = -54.3
