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

Describe the faces, edges, verticals of each three dimensional figure. Then identify it.
EastWind [94]

When you have to describe a 3D shape you have to keep the following definitions in mind:

<em>1. The face of a 3D shape is a flat surface.</em>

The shape on the picture has 3 rectangular faces and 2 triangular faces, a total of 5 faces.

<em />

<em>2. The edge is where two faces meet.</em>

For the shape on the picture, there are 3 edges, where the rectangular faces meet each other, and then three edges where the rectangular faces meet each of the triangular faces, this shape has a total of 9 edges.

<em>3. The vertex is a corner, where the edges meet.</em>

There are three vertices on each end of the shape, so it has a total of 6 vertices.

A shape that has 5 faces, 9 edges, and 6 vertices is a triangular prism.

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a professor sets a standard examination at the end of each semester for all sections of a course. The variance of the scores on this test is typically very close to 300.

H_0: s^2 = 300\\H_a: s^2 \neq 300

(Two tailed test for variance )

Sample variance =480

We can use chi square test for testing of hypothesis

Test statistic = \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2} \\=62.4

p value = 0.0100

Since p <0.05 our significance level, we reject H0.

The sample variance cannot be claimed as equal to 300.
