A polynomial is factored using algebra tiles. An algebra tile configuration. 0 tiles are in the Factor 1 spot and 0 tiles are in

the Factor 2 spot. 15 tiles are in the Product spot in 3 columns with 5 rows: 1 is labeled + x squared, 2 are labeled + x, the 4 tiles below + x squared are labeled negative x, and the 8 tiles below the + x tiles are labeled negative. Which polynomial was factored? x2 – 2x – 8 x2 + 2x – 8 x2 – 2x – 4 x2 + 2x – 4

Answer:

x² - 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebra tiles are tiles used to represent variables or numbers and are rectangular or square shaped.

1 is labeled + x squared, this gives x²

2 are labeled + x, this gives +x × 2 = +2x

4 tiles below + x squared are labeled negative x, this gives - x × 4 = - 4x

8 tiles below the + x tiles are labeled negative, this gives -1 × 8 = -8

Therefore to get the polynomial that was factored, we add all the terms. This gives :

+x² + (+ 2x) + (-4x) + (-8) = x² + 2x - 4x - 8 = x² - 2x - 8

Solve the following equation simultaneously 1/x-5/y=7, 2/x+1/y=3​
maria [59]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (1/2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting twice the first equation from the second gives ...

  (2/x +1/y) -2(1/x -5/y) = (3) -2(7)

  11/y = -11 . . . . simplify

  y = -1 . . . . . . . multiply by y/-11

Using the second equation, we can find x:

  2/x +1/-1 = 3

  2/x = 4 . . . . . . . add 1

  x = 1/2 . . . . . . . multiply by x/4

The solution is (x, y) = (1/2, -1).

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you clear fractions by multiplying each equation by xy, the problem becomes one of solving simultaneous 2nd-degree equations. It is much easier to consider this a system of linear equations, where the variable is 1/x or 1/y. Solving for the values of those gives you the values of x and y.

A graph of the original equations gives you an extraneous solution of (x, y) = (0, 0) along with the real solution (x, y) = (0.5, -1).

Find the measures of the angles in the figure.
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o

which agrees with the first answer in the list of possible options.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the fact that the addition of all four internal angles of a quadrilateral must render 360^o. Then we can create the following equation and solve for the unknown "h":

2h+2h+h+h = 360^o\\6h=360^o\\h=60^o

Therefore the angles of this quadrilateral are:

120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o

The weights of a large number of miniature poodles are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 8 kilograms and a stand
harina [27]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the table attached.

(a) over 9.5 kg;

μ = 8

σ = 0.9

z = 9.5 - 8/0.9 ≈ 1.67

P (Z > 1.67) = 0.5 - P(0<Z<1.67) = 0.5 - 0.4525 = 0.0475

(b) at most 8.6 kg;

z = 8.6-8/0.9 ≈ 0.67

P(Z < 0.67) = 0.5 + P(0<Z<0.67) = 0.5 + 0.2486 = 0.7486

(c) between 7.3 and 9.1 kg.

z₁ = 7.3-8/0.9 ≈ -0.78

z₂ = 9.1 - 8/0.9 ≈ 1.22

P(-0.78 < Z < 1.22) = P(0 < Z < 0.78) + P(0 < Z < 1.22) = 0.2823 + 0.3888 = 0.6711
