Favor out a-1 as long as you do it to the whole problem it is now equivalent then just worry about factoring the new product
-1(8x^2+X-9)
(8x+9)((X-1)
8x+9=0
Subtract 9 divide by 8
X=-9/ 8 answer
X-1=0 X=1 answer

If a set of data has mean 60 and variance 9 then it's coefficient of variation is
loris [4]
Coefficient of variation is calculated by dividing the standard deviation by the mean multiplied by 100. Given a data set with mean equal to 60 and variance equal to 9, we can calculate the coefficient of variation by finding the value of the standard deviation which is the square root of the variance. so standard deviation is equal to square root of 9 which is 3. Then, the coefficient of variation is equal to 3/60*100 which is equal to 5%.

Which rational graph has a minimum near x=-2 and a horizontal asymptote at y=1?
Arada [10]

Answer:

Graph A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has a local minimum around x=-2 since it slightly curves downwards around this region. Moreover, the graph of the rational function has a horizontal asymptote at y=1 since the graph approaches this horizontal line but never touches nor crosses it
