Step-by-step explanation:
((3•5x2) + 7x) - 2
Factoring 15x2+7x-2
The first term is, 15x2 its coefficient is 15 .
The middle term is, +7x its coefficient is 7 .
The last term, "the constant", is -2
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 15 • -2 = -30
Step-2 : Find two factors of -30 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 7 .
-30 + 1 = -29
-15 + 2 = -13
-10 + 3 = -7
-6 + 5 = -1
-5 + 6 = 1
-3 + 10 = 7 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -3 and 10
15x2 - 3x + 10x - 2
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
3x • (5x-1)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (5x-1)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(3x+2) • (5x-1)
Which is the desired factorization
Pull out a 5 from the first parenthesis
(5x+15) = 5(x+3)
Pull out a 25 from the second parenthesis
(25x+75) = 25(x+3)
(5x+15) + (25x+75) = your first answer = 5(x+3) + 25(x+3)
It’s 3n-4
I might be right or wrong
This is a multiplication of fractions. If the tank is 3/4 full, and the tank holds 14.5 gal, then we need to multiply 14.5 * 3/4 First, convert 14.5 to 14 1/2 = 29/2 as an improper fraction Now, we have 29/2 * 3/4 = 87/8 = 10 7/8 gal That's how much gas is in the tank now. However, we want to know how much is needed to fill the tank. That can be determined by subtracting 10 7/8 from the amount that the tank can hold when full, which is 14.5 or 14 1/2. 14 1/2 - 10 7/8 can be re-written using improper fractions 29/2 - 87/8 We need a common denominator, which is 8 116/8 - 87/8 = 29/8 = 3 5/8 gal That's how much is needed to fill the tank
7.5442 this means that there is two variables in between
