Answer:

GCF is 4ab

And the expression will be: 4ab ( 3a^2+2ab-5b^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the GCF :

12a^3b + 8a^2b^2-20 ab^3

We need to find the common terms that are common in each of the term given above

12,8 and 2 are all divisible by 4

a is common in all terms and b is also common in all terms,

So, GCF is 4ab

Taking 4ab common

12a^3b + 8a^2b^2-20 ab^3=4ab ( 3a^2+2ab-5b^2)

Sheryl got these scores on her spelling tests.

erica [24]

Answer:

5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Sheryl got the following scores on her spelling tests.

95, 89, 99, 85, 82

Mean = sum of all observations/ Number of observations

Sum of all observations $=95+89+99+85+82=450$

Number of observations = 5

So,

Mean $=\frac{450}{5}=90$

Let M denotes the mean

Mean absolute deviation $=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}\left | x_i-M \right |}{n}$

Put $n=5$

So,

Mean absolute deviation $=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{5}\left | x_i-M \right |}{5}=\frac{|95-90|+|89-90|+|99-90|+|85-90|+|82-90|}{5}=\frac{5+1+9+5+8}{5} =\frac{28}{5}=5.6$

Find the x-coordinates of the points where the graph crosses the x-axis.<br> y = (x - 3)(x + 8)

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The x-coordinates of the points are x = 3 and x = - 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the x-coordinates of the points where the graph of equation y = (x - 3)(x + 8) crosses the x-axis.

Now, the x-intercept of a function implies that y = 0 {Because on x-axis, y-value is zero}

Hence, (x - 3)(x + 8) = 0

⇒ (x - 3) = 0 and (x + 8) = 0

⇒ x = 3 and x = - 8

Therefore, the x-coordinates of the points are x = 3 and x = - 8. (Answer)
