Answer:
Question one = 35a - 15
Question two = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive property means to multiply all the numbers inside the parenthesis
by the outside number. 5 x 7a equals 35a and 5 x 3 = 15.
35 x 9 - 315 - 15 = 300
A = 9
Start with 180.
<span>Is 180 divisible by 2? Yes, so write "2" as one of the prime factors, and then work with the quotient, 90. </span>
<span>Is 90 divisible by 2? Yes, so write "2" (again) as another prime factor, then work with the quotient, 45. </span>
<span>Is 45 divisible by 2? No, so try a bigger divisor. </span>
<span>Is 45 divisible by 3? Yes, so write "3" as a prime factor, then work with the quotient, 15 </span>
<span>Is 15 divisible by 3? [Note: no need to revert to "2", because we've already divided out all the 2's] Yes, so write "3" (again) as a prime factor, then work with the quotient, 5. </span>
<span>Is 5 divisible by 3? No, so try a bigger divisor. </span>
Is 5 divisible by 4? No, so try a bigger divisor (actually, we know it can't be divisible by 4 becase it's not divisible by 2)
<span>Is 5 divisible by 5? Yes, so write "5" as a prime factor, then work with the quotient, 1 </span>
<span>Once you end up with a quotient of "1" you're done. </span>
<span>In this case, you should have written down, "2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5"</span>
Answer: i'm pretty sure it's 38,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
- 1.5x² + 6x + * =
- 1.5(x² + 4x + *) =
- 1.5(x² + 2*2x + 4) =
- 1.5(x + 2)²
- * = 1.5*2² = 6
b)
- 2x² - 5x + * =
- 2(x² - 2.5x + *) =
- 2(x² - 2*1.25x + 1.25²)=
- 2(x - 1.25)²
- * = 2*(1.25)² = 3.125 or 25/8
