Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> 1 • 4 = 4</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span> </span></span>
<span><span>-4 + -1 = -5</span><span> -2 + -2 = -4 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and -2
<span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
b • (b-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(b-2) • (b-2)
Which is the desired factorization
Answer: 67
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 + 5x + 25
x = 3
3(3)^2 + 5(3) + 25
3^2 = 9
3(9) + 5(3) + 25
3 * 9 = 27
27 + 5(3) + 25
5 * 3 = 15
27 + 15 + 25
27 + 15 = 42
42 + 25 = 67

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
120 people/sq. mile
Step-by-step explanation:
Population Density is the concept of how "crowdy" a place is. The more the population density, the more crowded that place is.
The population density is found by dividing the "number of people" by the "land area" (in sq mile or sq km).
Here, it is given there are 600 million people, so
Number of People = 600,000,000
And, the land area is given as 5 million square miles, so
Land Area = 5,000,000 sq. miles
Hence,
Population Density = 600,000,000/5,000,000 = 120 people/sq. mile
