We're trying to find $s(t(-7))$ .

$t(-7)=3(-7)$

$t(-7)=-21$

$s(-21)=2-(-21)^2$

$s(-21)=2-441$

$s(-21)=-439$

Hope this helps.

頑張って!

6x^2-4xy-15xy+10y^2 factor by grouping

Best Answer
We will need to split the middle term and use the grouping method. To do this multiply the coefficient of the first term (6) against the coefficient of the last term (10):

6 * 10 = 60
Factors of 60 = +-(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60)

From the list of factors find two numbers that when added together give -19 and when multiplied together give 60. -15 and -4 added together give -19 and multiplied together give 60 so split the middle term by rewriting these values back into the expression:

6x^2 - 15xy - 4xy + 10y^2

Now use the grouping method, take out the highest common factor between the two sets of terms:

3x(2x - 5y) - 2y(2x - 5y)

Group the outside terms:

(3x - 2y)(2x - 5y)

Answers
6 = -3*-2
10 = 5*2
5*3+2*2=19
thus
(2y-3x)(5y-2x)

If x = 5, find the value of<br> a) x2<br> b) (x + 3)2

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer: a) = 10

b) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

a) as x = 5 so putting the value of x in given equation

5 multiplied by 2 is equal to 10

b) Putting value of x in given equation

= (5 + 3) 2

According to BODMAS solve the brackets first

= 8 x 2

= 16

The personnel files of all eight employees at the Pawnee location of Acme Carpet Cleaners Inc. revealed that during the last six

irina [24]

Answer:

a) For Pawnee:

Range = 11, Mean = 3.13, Mean deviation = 2.44

For Chickpee:

Range = 7, Mean = 4.25, Mean deviation = 1.59

b) Pawnee Location has fewer lost days.

c) variation of the Chickpee is less than Pawnee location

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given:

For Pawnee:

3 1 0 0 2 11 5 3

Max = 11

Min = 0

Range = Max - Min

Range = 11-0 = 11

Range = 11

For Chickpee:

3 6 8 4 4 5 3 1

Max = 8

Min = 1

Range = Max - Min

Range = 8 - 1

Range = 7

For mean of Pawnee:

Mean = (3 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 11 + 5 + 3)/8

Mean = 25/8

Mean = 3.125

For mean deviation, we find the difference from the mean of each point.

Note: all the negative values will be taken as 0.

Differences from the mean of each point =

(3-3.13)=0.13, (1-3.31) = 2.13 ,

(0-3.13)=0, (0-3.13)=3.13,

(2-3.13)=1.13, (11-3.13)=7.87,

(5-3.13)=1.87, (3-3.13)=0.13

So, our differences are:

(0.13, 2.13, 0, 3.13, 1.13, 7.87, 1.87, 0.13 )

Mean deviation = Sum of all differences/8

Mean deviation = (0.13+2.13+3.13+3.13+ 1.13+ 7.87+ 1.87+ 0.13)/8

Mean deviation = 2.44

For mean of Chickpee:

Mean = (3+6+8+4+4+5+3+1)/8

Mean = 34/8

Mean = 4.25

Similarly, we need to find mean deviation for Chickpee, for that we need to find the differences first as done above for Pawnee.

Note: all the negative values will be taken as 0

Differences from the mean:

(3-4.25) = 1.25, (6-4.25) =1.75,

(8-4.25) = 3.75, (4-4.25)=0.25,

(4-4.25)=0.25, (5-4.25)= 0.75,

(3-4.25)=1.25, (1-4.25) =3.25

So, the differences are:

Differences = (1.25,1.75,3.75,0.25,0.25,0.75,1.25,3.25)

Mean deviation = (1.25+ 1.75+ 3.75+ 0.25+ 0.25+ 0.75+ 1.25+ 3.25)/8

Mean deviation = 1.59

b) which location has fewer lost days:

This can be found out by the total number of days of Pawnee and chickpee.

Pawnee = Sum of values = (3 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 11 + 5 + 3) = 25 days

Chickpee = Sum of values = (3+6+8+4+4+5+3+1) = 34 days

Hence, Pawnee Location has fewer lost days.

C) which location has less variation?

Formula for variation = ∑( $\frac{x^{2} }{8}$ ) - ( $mean^{2}$ )

where x = values of the set.

For Pawnee:

$mean^{2}$ = $3.13^{2}$ = 9.8

Sum of square of all the data points of Pawnee = 169

Variation = 169/8 - 98 = 11.325

Similarly,

For Chickpee:

$mean^{2}$ = $4.25^{2}$ = 18.06

Sum of square of all the data points of Chickpee = 176

Variation = 176/8 - 18.06

Variation = 22-18.06

Variation = 4

Hence, variation of the Chickpee is less than Pawnee location
