Factor complete m2+m-20

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago

Hi there!
I'm going to assume you mean m^2 + m - 20.
The factor of this is (m + 5)(m - 4)
And I found this by finding what two numbers add to 1 and multiply to -20, which is 5 and -4.

Now if you FOIL this, (First, outer, inner, last terms) you should come to the initial equation.
(m + 5) * (m-4)
m * m = m^2
5 * m = 5m
m * -4 = -4m
5 * -4 = -20
So, in combining like terms, you'd get m^2 + 1m -20.

If I chose a number uniformly from the integers from 1 to 25, calculate the conditional probability that the number is a multipl
topjm [15]

Answer:

<h2>1/7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If I choose a number from the integers 1 to 25, the total number of integers I can pick is the total outcome which is 25. n(U) = 25

Let the probability that the number chosen at random is a multiple of  6 be P(A) and the probability that the number chosen at random is is larger than 18 be P(B)

P(A) = P(multiple of 6)

P(B) = P(number larger than 18)

A = {6, 12, 18, 24}

B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}

The conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is expressed as P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

Since probability = expected outcome/total outcome

A∩B = {24}

n(A∩B) = 1

P(A∩B) = n(A∩B)/n(U)

P(A∩B) = 1/25

Given B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}.

n(B) = 7

p(B) = n(B)/n(U)

p(B) = 7/25

Since P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

P(A|B) = (1/25)/(7/24)

P(A|B) = 1/25*25/7

P(A|B) = 1/7

<em></em>

<em>Hence the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is 1/7</em>

The graphs below are both absolute value functions. The equation of the redgraph is f(x) = |xl. Which of these is the equation o
grigory [225]

ANSWER

\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x|

EXPLANATION

We want to find the absolute value function for the line in blue.

The general form of an absolute value function is:

y=a|x-h|+k

where (h, k) = vertex

From the line, the vertex of the graph in blue is:

(0,0)

To find a, we have to pick a point (x, y) on the line and input it into the general function.

Let us pick (2, 1).

Therefore, we have:

\begin{gathered} 1=a|2-0|+0 \\ 1=a|2|=2a \\ \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the absolute value function is:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{2}|x-0|+0 \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x| \end{gathered}

Wesley wants to have at least $50 to spend each day of his 7-day vacation. He plans to save $30 each month for 12 months. Which
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

i cant choose any that applies to this question because there is no picture added to it and there are no choices to choose from. If i were to solve it though, it would be; yes, he will save enough money for his vacation.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know he would have enough--and in this case more than enough, because since he's planning to save $30 for a whole year just for $50, when he could simply make $60--which is in fact more than needed for his goal-- in just 2 months. If he were to stick with his plan though, he'd make $360. I got that by multiplying 30 by 12.
