2(x^2-5x+4) That's the smallest I see. Double check though. I might be misunderstanding the way it ways the answer.

Answer:

2(x-1)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see immediately that 2 is a factor of each term. That lets you write ...

... = 2(x² -5x +4)

To factor further, you need factors of 4 that add to -5. Those would be -1 and -4. Now, you can write ...

... = 2(x -1)(x -4)

_____

<em>Comment on this factorization</em>

It is not uncommon to see quadratics in which the constant is 1 less than the magnitude of the linear term. (4 is 1 less than 5 in this case) Then the constant term and 1 are the constants in the binomial factors. Signs need to be appropriate, of course.

Another way to say this is that when the sum of all the coefficients of the polynomial is zero, 1 is a root and (x -1) is a factor.

A=3B
4.35A+5.40B=780.95
Substitute 3B into A for the second equation:
4.35(3B)+5.40B=780.90
13.05B+5.40B=780.90
18.45B=780.90
B=42.33
Plug into equation 1:
A=3B
A=3(42.33)
A=126.98

Answer all questions thoroughly, pls!!
Anna11 [10]

1.You can recognize exponential and linear function by their graph.Linear functions are straights while exponential functions are curved lines.You can also recognize them by the change in your.If the same number is being added to y,then the function has a constant change and is linear.3:-An example of a exponential function is the growth of bacteria and A common equation,y=mx+b y=mx+b,(namely the slope-intercept form,which we will learn more about later)is a example of a linear function.2:-For constant increments in x,a linear growth would increase by a constant difference,and an experimental growth would increase by a constant ratio.

Answer:

y = -5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:
