Answer:

B.) 2(5x-4)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

10x^2+2x-8

= 2(5x^2 + x - 4)

= 2(5x^2 + 5x - 4x - 4)

= 2[5x(x + 1) - 4(x + 1)]

= 2(5x-4)(x+1)

Answer:

B.) 2(5x - 4)(x + 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

10x^2+2x-8

First divide by the common factor 2:

= 2(5x^2 + x - 4)

Now we factor the expression in the parentheses using the 'ac' method.

5 * -4 = -20 so to get the + x in the middle we need 5x - 4x:

= 2 ( 5x^2 + 5x - 4x - 4)

= 2[ 5x(x + 1) - 4(x + 1)]

= 2(5x - 4)(x + 1) (answer).

What is the measure of LXZW? 850 150° Y 65° 95 Z 215° W 30°

Semenov [28]

Answer:

so the answer is 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles on a line add up to 180° or are supplementary, so we can find the inside angle x by doing 180-150=30°. Now that we know inside x is 30, if we add 30+65, we get 95, and 180-95=85°. Then to find angle xzw, just do 180-85 to get 95°.

At a manufacturing plant where switches are made, it is a known fact that 2% of all switches are defective. If two switches are

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The probability that exactly one switch is good is

$P(x) =0.0392$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a switch is defective is:

$P(D) = \frac{2}{100} =0.02$

The probability that a switch is not defective is

$P(D') = 1-P(D)=0.98$

Therefore, if two switches are selected, the probability that exactly 1 is good is:

$P(1=1)=P (D) P (D ') + P (D') P (D)$

$P(x)=(0.02)(0.98) + (0.98)(0.02)$

$P(x) =0.0392$

Susan drove to visit a friend. She drove 345

padilas [110]

Answer:

$Average\ Speed = 60 mi/hr$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Distance = 345\ miles$

$Time = 5\ hours\ 45\ minutes$

Required

Determine the average speed

This is calculated as thus:

$Average\ Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

Convert time to hour:

$Time = 5\ hours\ 45\ minutes$

$Time = 5\ hours + \frac{45}{60}\ hour$

$Time = 5\ hours + \frac{3}{4}\ hour$

$Time = \frac{20 + 3}{4}\ hours$

$Time = \frac{23}{4}\ hours$

$Time = 5.75\ hours$

$Average\ Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

$Average\ Speed = \frac{345}{5.75}$

$Average\ Speed = 60 mi/hr$
