Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to factor your quadratic equation. You'll get (2x+1)(2x+1). Your two zeroes will be -1/2 and -1/2 with one being a, the other b. So then
a/b = (-1/2)/(-1/2)
and
b/a = (-1/2)/(-1/2)
Both reduce to 1. So a/b + b/a is 1+1=2
Outliers are the ones that are most different and the farthest away form the group. u wanna organize them least to greatest: (which the already are) 12,53,54,59,61,62,63,64,64,93. almost all of the numbers are in the 50s and 60s, all but two. therefore your outliers are 12,93. your welcome
97.356 = (ninety) + (seven) + (three tenths) + (five hundredths) + (six thousandths)
triangle B. because congruent is supposed to be the same shape same size but triangle b is same shape but a different size

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This sort of pattern is used in the factoring of trinomials. Typically, the top quadrant holds the product you're trying to factor. The bottom quadrant holds the sum of the factors. The factors appear on the left and right in no particular order.
__
1) You're looking for factors of -24 that have a sum of -5. It can be useful to simply list the factor pairs. Since you want a negative sum, you may want to start with the most negative factors and work up from there.
-24 = (-24)(1) = (-12)(2) = (-8)(3) = (-6)(4)
The sums of these factor pairs are -23, -10, -5, -2. Obviously, the pair we're interested in is the one with a sum of -5: (-8) +(3).
So, the left- and right-quadrants are filled with -8 and 3.
Blank 1 = -8
Blank 2 = 3
__
2) You are given the factors, so all you need to do is form the product and sum.
Blank 1 = (-3)(-2) = 6
Blank 2 = (-3) +(-2) = -5

<em>Additional comment</em>
Any sort of factoring is much easier to do if you have memorized your multiplication tables, preferably through 12×12. It is also helpful if you're familiar with divisibility rules—at least for single-digit numbers. I've seen college students struggle trying to do factoring using a calculator. It's not pretty. Many folks learn their times tables up to 10×10 by the end of 3rd grade.
