We are asked to factor the given trinomial. In this case, the second term coefficient is equal to the the negative sum of the roots of the equation while the third coefficient is equal to the negative product of the roots. Hence the factors are (x-6) and (x+1). The larger zero is 6.

A washer and a dryer cost $1000 combined. The cost of the washer is three times the cost of the dryer. What is the cost of the d
steposvetlana [31]
$250. You would divide $1000 by 4 to get each 1/4 equaling $250, that would allow the dryer to be $750 which is 3x250, and 750+250 is 1000. So the washer is $750 and the dryer is $250

Which dot plot has the largest range?
romanna [79]

Answer:

Calico Crayfish has the largest range ⇒ The range = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The rang is the difference between the largest value

   and the smallest value

In the Calico Crayfish the largest value is 10 and the smallest value is 1

∴ The range = 10 - 1 = 9

In the Zebra Mussel the largest value is 10 and the smallest value is 2

∴ The range = 10 - 2 = 8

In the Blue-back Herring the largest value is 10 and the smallest value is 4

∴ The range = 10 - 4 = 6

In the Shield Darter the largest value is 9 and the smallest value is 2

∴ The range = 9 - 2 = 7

∴ The largest range is 9 in Calico Crayfish
