Answer:

(x+4)(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find two numbers that multiply to -8 and add up to 2. These are 4,-2.

Rewrite the polynomial:

x^2-2x+4x-8

and factor each pair:

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

Use factoring to solve the quadratic equation. Check by substitution or by using a graphing utility and identifying x-intercepts

Answer:

  x = -7, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your equation is ...

  x² -2x -63 = 0

Factors of -63 that have a sum of -2 are -9 and +7. Then the factored equation is ...

  (x -9)(x +7) = 0

Solutions make the factors zero.

  x -9 = 0   ⇒   x = 9

  x +7 = 0   ⇒   x = -7

The solutions to the quadratic equation are x = -7 and x = 9.

Joe nas to take two quizzes tomorrow. He nas only enough time to study one of them. • The science quiz has 7 true-or-false quest
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Science questions are T/F. That's .5 or \frac{1}{2} chance to get it right.

7 questions. Each with a \frac{1}{2}.

That's (\frac{1}{2})^{7}  

(\frac{1}{2})^{7} = \frac{1}{128} = .0078 = .008 rounded

English questions are multiple choice. 4 choices. That's .25 or \frac{1}{4}

3 questions. Each \frac{1}{4}

That's (\frac{1}{4})^{3}

(\frac{1}{4})^{3} = \frac{1}{64} = .0156 = .016 rounded
