Answer:

x = 5

x = 0

Pulling out like terms :

2.1 Pull out like factors :

x2 - 5x = x • (x - 5)

Equation at the end of step 2 :

x • (x - 5) = 0

Step 3 :

Theory - Roots of a product :

3.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

This is so confusing all of it makes no sense

Tom [10]

Answer:

D). $4\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1a: Find the last angle of the triangle. ( which is angle A)

$A+90+45=180$

STEP 1b: Solve the equation for A by adding 90 and 45.

$A+135=180$

STEP 1c: Then Move all terms not containing A to the right side of the equation by subtracting 135 from both sides of the equation

$A=180-135$

STEP 1d: Subtract 135 from 180.

$A=45$

STEP 2a: Find side b next.

STEP 2b: The cosine of an angle is equal to the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.

$cos(A)=\frac{adj}{hyp}$

STEP 2c: Substitute the name of each side into the definition of the cosine function.

$cos(A)=\frac{b}{c}$

STEP 2d: Set up the equation to solve for the adjacent side, in this case b.

$b=c*cos(A)$

STEP 2e: Substitute the values of each variable into the formula for cosine.

$b=8*cos(45)$

STEP 2f: Cancel the common factor of 2.

$a=4\sqrt{2}$

A box contains 35 gems, of which 10 are real diamonds and 25 are fake diamonds. Gems are randomly taken out of the box, one at a

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ways of selecting 3 gems of any kind without replacement is 35 * 34 * 33 = 39270

Now selecting 2 gems from 25 is 25C2

25 C 2 = 25 * 24/2 = 300

Selecting one good gem is 10

Total selection = 300 * 10 = 3000

P(gems) = 3000 / 39270

P(gems) = 300/3927

P(gems) = 100/1309

Answer:

(-0.5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint add the coordinates then divide by 2

x = (2 + -1)/2

x = 1/2 = 0.5

y = (3 + -5)/2

y = -1
