Factor by grouping. Group up the terms into pairs, factor each pair, then factor out the overall GCF.
x^3 + 2x^2 - 16x - 32
(x^3 + 2x^2) + (-16x-32) ... pair up terms
x^2(x + 2) + (-16x - 32) ... factor x^2 from the first group
x^2(x + 2) - 16(x + 2) ... factor -16 from the second group
(x^2 - 16)(x + 2) .... factor out (x+2)
(x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 2) .... Use the difference of squares to factor x^2-16
---------------------------
The original expression completely factors to (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 2)
The three factors are x - 4 and x + 4 and x + 2
Ok so for number 5, AB is proportional to BC just like PQ is proportional to QR. AB = 9, BC = 15, PQ = 3, and QR = x. 9/15 = 3/x. Cross Multiply: This gives you - 9x = 45. Divide both sides by 9, and you get x = 5. QR = 5
Answer:
13 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
( 8.45 km) / (0.65 hr)
(8.45 / 0.65) km/hr
Answer:
Rounding to the Nearest Integer
The most common type of rounding is to round to the nearest integer. The rule for rounding is simple: look at the digits in the tenth's place (the first digit to the right of the decimal point).
