Answer:
(x - 2)(5x + 3) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 7x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 5 × - 6 = - 30 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 10 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
5x² - 10x + 3x - 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
5x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0 ← factor out (x - 2) from each term
(x - 2)(5x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
4-3=1
1+8=9
The answer is 9
Answer:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable
Exact Form:
x = - 25/8 
Decimal Form:
x = -3.125
Mixed Number Form:
x = - 3/1/8 
Step-by-step explanation:
40%
The probability of her getting a red marble is the number of red marbles divided by the number of total marbles. Since she picked a green marble first, we must subtract one marble from the total number of marbles, so that the total # of marbles is 6 + 6 + 4 = 16 - 1 (green marble) = 15. Since there are 6 red marbles, our probability is 6/15 or 2/5. Converted to percentage form, this is 0.4 —> 40%
