Answer:

x(x + 3)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor out x from each term

= x(x² + x - 6)

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x - term (+ 1)

The factors are + 3 and - 2, since

+ 3 × - 2 = - 6 and + 3 - 2 = + 1, hence

x² + x - 6 = (x + 3)(x - 2)

---------------------------------------

x³ + x² - 6x = x(x + 3)(x - 2) ← in factored form

We can find the 15.2% of 185 pounds by dividing the weight by 15.2% in its decimal form:

185(15.2\%)=185(0.152)=27.7\text{pounds}

therefore, there are 27.7 pounds of fat

The graph of an equation with a negative discriminant always has which characteristic?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The graph does not intercept the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

When the discriminant is positive, it means that in the quadratic equation, you <em>can</em> take the square root of this number and end up with two distinct solutions, one negative and one positive. The graph will intercept the x-axis twice.

When the discriminant is zero, it means that you won't be taking the square root of any number in the quadratic equation and you'll end up with two solutions that are equal, or just one distinct solution. The graph will intercept the x-axis once.

When the discriminant is negative, it means that the quadratic has no real solutions, meaning that it does not intercept the x-axis. It is impossible to take the square root of a negative number.

I hope this helps!

Which statement implies that A and B are independent events?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

If two events, A and B are independent, the probability of both A and B happening is the same as the probability of A happening multiplied by the probability of B happenings, that is:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)

In this question:

The statement is P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)
