Answer:

hello : the factorize completely is  :( 5x+2a)(x-2a)

Step-by-step explanation:

the first solution :

note : Ax² + Bx + C = A( x - x1)(x - x2)  if : Δ ≥ 0 and : Δ = B² - 4AC

x1 = ( - B -√Δ)/2A        x2 = ( - B +√Δ)/2A

in this execice : A = 5   B = -8a  C= - 4a²

calculate Δ = ( -8a)² - 4 (5)(-4a²) = 64a² +80a² = 144a² = (12a)²

x1 = ( 8a - 12a ) / 10  = -4a/10

x1 = -2a/5

x2 = ( 8a +12a ) / 10  = 20a/10

x2 =2a

put x1 and x2 in expression A( x - x1)(x - x2)

you have : 5( x +2a/5)(x -2a)= (5x+2a)(x-2a)

verify : (5x+2a)(x-2a) =  5x² -10ax +2ax -4a² =  5x² -8ax - 4a²

the second solution :

5x² -8ax - 4a² = 5x² +  (-10ax +2ax) -4a²     because

-8ax =-10ax +2ax

5x² -8ax - 4a² =(5x² +  -10ax) +(2ax -4a²)

5x (x - 2a) +2a (x -2a) = (x -2a)(5x+2a)

Divide. Write your answer in lowest terms. 3/4 divided by 6/1
Trava [24]
Since dividing fractions are not possible, you must first find the reciprocal of 6/1 which is 1/6. And the equation would be written as 3/4*1/6. Cross cancel the 3 and 6 leaving 1/4*1/2=1/8. Thus, your answer is lowest terms is, 1/8.

Two complementary angles are in the ratio of 1:5. find the measure of the larger angle?
Luden [163]
First you set up an equation using a variable:
x + 5x = 90° (complementary angles = 90°)
6x = 90
x = 15 (also the measure of the smaller angle)

now plug in x to find the larger angle:
5(15) = 75°

A large pool of adults earning their first driver’s license includes 50% low-risk drivers, 30% moderate-risk drivers, and 20% hi
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The probability that these four will contain at least two more high-risk drivers than low-risk drivers is 0.0488.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the different kinds of drivers as follows:

L = low-risk drivers

M = moderate-risk drivers

H = high-risk drivers

The information provided is:

P (L) = 0.50

P (M) = 0.30

P (H) = 0.20

Now, it given that the insurance company writes four new policies for adults earning their first driver’s license.

The combination of 4 new drivers that satisfy the condition that there are at least two more high-risk drivers than low-risk drivers is:

S = {HHHH, HHHL, HHHM, HHMM}

Compute the probability of the combination {HHHH} as follows:

P (HHHH) = [P (H)]⁴

                = [0.20]⁴

                = 0.0016

Compute the probability of the combination {HHHL} as follows:

P (HHHL) = {4\choose 1} × [P (H)]³ × P (L)

               = 4 × (0.20)³ × 0.50

               = 0.016

Compute the probability of the combination {HHHM} as follows:

P (HHHL) = {4\choose 1} × [P (H)]³ × P (M)

               = 4 × (0.20)³ × 0.30

               = 0.0096

Compute the probability of the combination {HHMM} as follows:

P (HHMM) = {4\choose 2} × [P (H)]² × [P (M)]²

                 = 6 × (0.20)² × (0.30)²

                 = 0.0216

Then the probability that these four will contain at least two more high-risk drivers than low-risk drivers is:

P (at least two more H than L) = P (HHHH) + P (HHHL) + P (HHHM)

                                                            + P (HHMM)

                                                  = 0.0016 + 0.016 + 0.0096 + 0.0216

                                                  = 0.0488

Thus, the probability that these four will contain at least two more high-risk drivers than low-risk drivers is 0.0488.

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total distance = 350 miles

According to map,

1 inch = 35 miles

Let, x be the number of inches on map.

Therefore, using proportion;

Inch : mile :: inch : mile

1:35::x:350\\

Product of mean = Product of extreme

35*x=350*1\\35x=350\\

Dividing both sides by 35;

\frac{35x}{35}=\frac{350}{35}\\x=10

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.
