Answer: Answers are in the steps read carefully!
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 3x^2 - 7x + 2 To factor this polynomial, you have to find two numbers that their product is 6 and their sum is -7. The numbers -1 and -6 works out because -6 times -1 is 6 and -6 plus -1 is -7.
Now rewrite the polynomial as
3x^2 - 1x - 6x + 2 Now group it
(3x^2 - 1x) (-6x+2) Factor it by groups
x (3x -1) -2(3x -1) Now factor out 3x-1
(3x -1) (x-2) Done!
B) 2x^2 - x -3 Now the same way.You will have two numbers that their product is -6 and their sum is -1. You may be wondering how I get -6 .I get -6 by multiply the leading coefficient 2 by the constant -3. The numbers -3 and 2 works out. Because -3 times 2 is -6 and -3 plus 2 is -1.
Rewrite the polynomial as
2x^2 +2x - 3x -3 GRoup them and factor them
(2x^2 + 2x) (-3x-3)
2x(x+1) -3(x+1) Factor out x+1
(x+1) (2x -3) Done!
C) 3x^2 - 16x - 12 Find two numbers that their product is -36 and their sum is -12. The numbers -18 and 2 works out because -18 times 2 is -36 and -18 plus 2 is -16.
Rewrite the polynomial
3x^2 +2x -18x - 12 GRoup them
(3x^2 + 2x) (-18x - 12) Factor them
x (3x +2) -6(3x +2) Factor out 3x+2
(3x+2) (x -6) Done !
Answer:
2 / 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Coin flipped 3 times has following outcomes, of heads 'H' & Tails 'T'
HHH , TTT , HTT, THT , TTH , THH , HTH , HHT = total outcomes
P (A) = 2 consecutive heads , P (B) = atleast one tail
P (A) = 2 outcomes ( HHH , HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 3 / 8
P (B) = 7 outcomes (all except HHH) / total 8 outcomes = 7 / 8
P (A | B) = P ( A ∩ B ) / P (B)
P ( A ∩ B ) = P ( 2 consecutive heads & atleast one tail) / Total outcomes = 2 outcomes ( HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 2 / 8
So, P (A | B) = ( 2 / 8 ) / ( 7 / 8 ) = 2 / 7
Answer: x=-2 y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
I decided that isolating the y value of the second equation is the best way to start solving.
I divide 3 from both sides to get y= (4-x)/3. With this, I can substitute into the first equation. 4x+3(4-x)/3)=-2.
The multiplying the 3 by the denominator three cancels each other out to make:
4x+4-x=-2.
We subtract 4 on both sides and then subtract x from 4x.
We end up with 3x=-6. Then, we divide both sides by 3.
x=-2.
Now we substitute this into the second equation to solve.
3y=4-(-2)
This becomes 3y=4+2 which is 3y=6
We divide both sides by 3 to get y=2
We end up with x=-2 and y=2.
I hope you learned something :)
Note: Consider "÷" sign instead of "=".
Given:
To find:
The quotient.
Solution:
We have,
It can be written as
Splitting the middle terms, we get
Taking out the common factor (x-1), we get
Cancel the common factors.
The quotient is 
.
Therefore, the correct option is D.
