F(x) = x2 − 2x How would I factor this?

The only way to factor an equation such as this is by pulling out the greatest common factor. When we look at what is the largest term in both of these, we discover both have an x, but nothing else. So, we need to extract an x out of each piece.


f(x) = x^2 - 2x

f(x) = x(x - 2)


This will give you the fully factored form for this equation.

f(x) = x^2 - 2x ← Factor out a common factor in each, which is a <em>x</em>

= x(x - 2)

And there you go!

The Federal Government is stepping up efforts to reduce average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Nationwide, th
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: in order to qualify, the time must be at least 15.93 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable representing the average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Since it follows a normal distribution, we will determine the z score by applying the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 12.8 minutes

σ = 3.7 minutes

in order to qualify for the special safety award, the probability value would be to the right of the z score corresponding to 80%

The z score corresponding to 80% on the normal distribution table is 0.845

Therefore,

0.845 = (x - 12.8)/3.7

0.845 × 3.7 = x - 12.8

3.13 = x - 12.8

x = 12.8 + 3.13 = 15.93

— 25 — 3х + 5 or – 3х +5 — 31​
zysi [14]

Answer:

both should

be equal to hope my work is correct or helps

Step-by-step explanation:

first one

-25<-3x+5 subtract 5 from both sides

-25-5=-30

5-5=0

then divide by -3

-30 divided by -3 =10

x=10

so it is equal to not less than

second one

-3x+5<-31

subtract 5 from both sides 5-5=0

-31 -5=-36

then divide both sides by -3

x=12

M is a degree 3 polynomial with m ( 0 ) = 53.12 and zeros − 4 and 4 i . Find an equation for m with only real coefficients (i.E.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Therefore the required polynomial is

M(x)=0.83(x³+4x²+16x+64)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that M is a polynomial of degree 3.

So, it has three zeros.

Let the polynomial be

M(x) =a(x-p)(x-q)(x-r)

The two zeros of the polynomial are -4 and 4i.

Since 4i is a complex number. Then the conjugate of 4i is also a zero of the polynomial i.e -4i.

Then,

M(x)= a{x-(-4)}(x-4i){x-(-4i)}

      =a(x+4)(x-4i)(x+4i)

      =a(x+4){x²-(4i)²}      [ applying the formula (a+b)(a-b)=a²-b²]

      =a(x+4)(x²-16i²)

      =a(x+4)(x²+16)      [∵i² = -1]

      =a(x³+4x²+16x+64)

Again given that M(0)= 53.12 . Putting x=0 in the polynomial

53.12 =a(0+4.0+16.0+64)

\Rightarrow a = \frac{53.12}{64}

      =0.83

Therefore the required polynomial is

M(x)=0.83(x³+4x²+16x+64)
