Answer:

(3x-5)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a general polynomial ax^2+bx+c, we need to find two numbers that multiply to ac and add up to b.

In this case, we need to find two numbers that multiply to 3*(-5) = -15 and add up to -2. These are 3,-5. Rewrite the polynomial as:

3x^2+3x-5x-5

And then factor each pair:

3x(x+1)-5(x+1) = (3x-5)(x+1)

Answer:

(x + 1)(3x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² - 2x - 5

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 3 × - 5 = - 15 and sum = - 2

The required factors are - 5 and + 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

3x² + 3x - 5x - 5 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x(x + 1) - 5(x + 1) ← factor out (x + 1) from each term

= (x + 1)(3x - 5) ← in factored form

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-9,0) and (-17 , 0 ) ​
marishachu [46]

Answer:

\mathrm{Slope=== > 0}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi student, let me help you out!

<u>.............................................................................................................</u>

<u></u>

First, let's recall the slope formula: \boxed{\mathrm{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}}, where y2 and y1 are y-coordinates; x2 and x1 are x-coordinates.

Plugin the values: \mathrm{\cfrac{0-0}{-17-(-9)}}.

Upon simplifying, we obtain \mathrm{\cfrac{0}{-17+9}}.

Upon simplifying this further, we obtain \mathrm{\cfrac{0}{-9}}.

0 divided by anything results in 0.

✨ ∴, the slope of this particular line is 0, and this line looks something like this: \rule{200}{1}.

See, it's a horizontal line, with a rise of 0, meaning that it goes up 0 units.

Hope this helped you out! Ask in comments if even the slightest queries arise.

Best Wishes!

The strength of paper used in the manufacturing of cardboard boxes (y) is related to percentage of hardwood concentration in the
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.

P-value = 0.003.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we perform a regression analysis relating x and y, we get the best fitting line with equation:

y=15.82x+92.9

and a correlation coefficient r:

r=0.693

We have to test the hypothesis, where the alternative hypothesis claims that there is a relationship between these two variables, and the null hypothesis claiming there is no relationship (meaning that the correlation is not significantly different from 0).

This can be written as:

H_0: \rho=0\\\\H_a:\rho\neq0

where ρ is the population correlation coefficient for x and y.

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample size is n=16.

The degrees of freedom are df=14.

df=n-2=16-2=14

The test statistic can be calculated as:

t=\dfrac{r\sqrt{n-2}}{\sqrt{1-r^2}}=\dfrac{0.693\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{1-(0.693)^2}}=\dfrac{2.593}{0.721}=3.597

For a test statistic t=2.05 and 14 degrees of freedom, the P-value is calculated as:

\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t>3.597)=0.003

The P-value (0.003) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), so the effect is significant enough.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.
