<h3>
Answer: (x+1)(x+3)</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
Let's assume it factors into (x+a)(x+b)
The goal is to find the two numbers a and b.
FOIL out (x+a)(x+b) to get x^2+(a+b)x+ab
Note how a+b is the middle term and ab is the last term.
In the original expression, 4 is the middle term and 3 is the last term.
So we need to find two numbers that
There are two ways to multiply to 3 and they are
- 1 times 3 = 3
- -1 times -3 = -3
But only the first way has the factors add to 4. So that means a = 1 and b = 3.
Therefore (x+a)(x+b) = (x+1)(x+3)
And x^2+4x+3 = (x+1)(x+3)
106=x+x+5+x+8
106=3x+13
3x=93
x=31
(the sides are 31, 36, 39 respectively)
Answer:
A. 0.009899
B. 0.005624
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
Let the probability that an item is defective = 
The probability that the item is not defective = 
The probability that the fifth item is defective = 
= 0.009899
Probability that one in 5 items is defective = 0.005624
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:Absolute value is a number's distance away from zero. For example, on a number line, -9 is 9 spaces away from zero. So, the absolut value is 9. Similarly, the number 9 is also 9 spaces from zero, so the absolute value would be 9. 9 and -9 both have an absolute value of 9. I hope this is helpful!
A) zeroes
P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250
Extract common factor:
P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)
Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)
P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)
Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.
They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.
B) Maximum profit
Completion of squares
n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4
P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000
Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000
Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5
C) Axis of symmetry
Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k
Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000
Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.
