2x^2 - 8x - 24
First, we can factor a 2 out of this expression to simplify it.
2(x^2 - 4x - 12)
Now, we can try factoring this two ways: by using the quadratic formula, or by using the AC method.
We're gonna try using the AC method first.
List factors of -12.
1 * -12
-1 * 12
2 * -6
-2 * 6 (these digits satisfy the criteria.)
Split the middle term.
2(x^2 - 2x + 6x - 12)
Factor by grouping.
2(x(x - 2) + 6(x - 2)
Rearrange terms.
<h3><u>(2)(x + 6)(x - 2) is the fully factored form of the given polynomial.</u></h3>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
given that a deck of cards is shuffled.
we know in a deck there are 52 cards, 13 cards of each variety spade, clubs hearts and dice. Red are 26 and black are 26. kings, will be 4.
(a) the top card is the king of spades and the bottom card is the queen of spades?
(iii) 1/52 × 1/52
Top has 1/52 and bottom has 1/52 and these are independent.
(b) the top card is the king of spades and the bottom card is the king of spades?
(viii) None of the above
Because it is impossible.
(c) the top card is the king of spades or the bottom card is the king of spades?
(iv) 1/52 + 1/52
This is the sum of probabilities because there is no common event for these two.
(d) the top card is the king of spades or the bottom card is the queen of spades?
(ii) 1/52 + 1/51 (once king of spades is there, then probability is 1/51 for bottom card)
(e) of the top and bottom cards, one is the king of spades and the other is the queen of spades?
(vii) 2/52 × 1/51
Because this is twice of probability d.
You would be 26 im pretty sure
The answer is 100 if that 5 and 2 is separate
Answer:
3 students are eating lunches other than salads and sandwiches.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you know that there are 18 students in the cafeteria and 1/6 of them are eating salads and 2/3 are eating sandwiches right? So you would have to think about what 1/6 of 18 is so you know how many students are eating salads, and 1/6 of 18 is 3 so there are 3 students eating salads. Now, you have to find out how many students are eating sandwiches, so you need to know what 2/3 of 18 is. 2/3 of 18 is 12 so now you also know that there are 12 students eating sandwiches. Next, you have to add 12 and 3 and you get 15. Since you know that there are 18 students in the cafeteria, you have to subtract 18 by 15, and you should get 3. So 3 students are eating lunches other than salads or sandwiches.
Hope this helps you! :D
