Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.
Answer:
x2 - 10x - 1994
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2-10x-1994
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -10x its coefficient is -10 .
The last term, "the constant", is -1994
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -1994 = -1994
Step-2 : Find two factors of -1994 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -10 .
-1994 + 1 = -1993
-997 + 2 = -995
-2 + 997 = 995
-1 + 1994 = 1993
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
x2 - 10x - 1994
