Mathematics

N76 [4]3 years ago
3 0

To factor,

<h2>[[[</h2>

1) First multiply coefficient of a² and constant no,

That is,

3×(-42)=-126

Since the<u> resultant no is negative</u>, you should find two such factors of 126 <u>which</u> <u>will give us the coefficient of a (=11)</u> on subracting those factors.

2) Find the factor

126=2×3×3×7

=18×7

18 and 17 are factors of 126

Also,18-7 =11.

So they are required factors for factoring,

<h2>]]]</h2>

Once you have understood above steps you can solve on your own. All you need to do is split 11 into factors ,take common terms and you will get answer.

<u>Answer:</u>

3a²+11a-42

=3a²+(18-7)a -42

=3a²+18a-7a-42

=3a(a+6) -7(a+6)

=(a+6)(3a-7)

If g(x) = {(4, -5), (-3, 2), (-6, 1), (1,0)}, which set of ordered pairs represents
Ket [755]

Answer:

The inverse of g(x) is {(-5, 4), (2, -3), (1, -6), (0, 1)} ⇒ (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function switch x and y

<u>Example:</u>

If f(x) = {(1, 2), (-4, 5), (0, 0)}

To find its inverse switch x and y in each ordered pair

The inverse of f(x) = {(2, 1), (5, -4), (0, 0)}

<em>Let us do the same with our question</em>

∵ g(x) = {(4, -5), (-3, 2), (-6, 1), (1, 0)}

→ Switch x and y coordinates in all ordered pair

∴ The inverse of g(x) = {(-5, 4), (2, -3), (1, -6), (0, 1)}

<em>Look at the answer to find the correct choice</em>

It is (A)

How does a small outlier affect the data set?
leva [86]
A small outlier could affect the whole data set because it could reduce the mean, or make the average of the whole data set smaller.

An example would be the data set could be 1, 8, 9, 10

To find the mean you would add everything together then divide it by the number of numbers you just added together. The mean of this set would be 28/4 which equals 7. Now, if the outlier were -8 instead of 1, then the mean would be much different.

~Hope this helped!~
