Answer:

(6x - 5)(2x + 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

12x^2+8x-15

We use the 'ac' method:

12 * -15 = -180. We need two numbers whose product is -180 and whose sum is +8 ( to make the + 8x).  

These are  + 18 and - 10 so  we have:

12x^2 + 18x - 10x - 15    Now factor by grouping:

= 6x(2x + 3) - 5(2x + 3)   (2x + 3) is common to the 2 parts so:

= (6x - 5)(2x + 3).

Jaidee spent half of her weekly allowance on clothes. To earn more money her parents let her wash a dog for $9. What is her week
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to subtract the amount she earned from walking the dog ($9.00) from the end total ($16.00). This leaves us with $7.00.

Since she spent exactly<em> </em><em>half</em> of her weekly allowance, we must multiply the remaining $7.00 by 2. This leaves us with our final answer of $14.00.

The Doppler effect causes a sound moving towards you to sound higher pitched and a sound moving away from you to sound lower pit
dlinn [17]

Answer: 54.88 mph

Step-by-step explanation: the Doppler effect formulae is given below as

f' = (v + vo) /(v - vs) × f

Where f' = observed frequency = 236 Hz,

f = frequency of sound source (stationary frequency) = 253 Hz.

v = speed of sound in air = 761 mph

Since the car (source) is moving away relative to the observer, vs will have a negative value (-vs)

vo = 0 mph ( since the observer is not moving)

By substituting the parameters, we have that

236 = (761+0)/(761 - (-vs)) × 253

236 = (761/ 761 +vs) × 253

By cross multiplication, we have that

236 × (761 +vs) = 761 ×253

761 + vs = 761 ×253/ 236

761 + vs = 192533/ 236

761 + vs = 815.88

vs = 815.88 - 761

vs = 54.88 mph
