The model represents x2 – 9x + 14. An algebra tile configuration showing only the Product spot. 24 tiles are in the Product spot

: 1 is labeled + x squared, 9 are labeled negative x, and 14 are labeled +. Which is a factor of x2 – 9x + 14? x – 9 x – 2 x + 5 x + 7
The answer is x-2

I didn't get all the part with the tiles, but here's the general answer:

given a polynomial

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c

we have that x-k is a factor of p(x) if and only if k is a root of p(x), i.e. if

p(k)=ak^2+bk+c=0

So, given the polynomial

p(x)=x^2-9x+14

We can check if x-9 is a factor by evaluating p(9):

p(9)=81-81+14=14\neq 0

So, x-9 is not a factor.

Similarly, we can evaluate p(2),\ p(-5),\ p(-7) to check if x-2,\ x+5,\ x+7 are factors:

p(2)=4-18+14=0,\quad p(-5)=25+45+14=84\neq 0,\quad p(-7)=49+63+14=126 \neq 0

So, only x-2 is a factor of x^2-9x+14

Answer:

D, B, C, A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equations by combining like terms, isolating the variable, and dividing the equation by the coefficient of the variable.

Doing this, the first equation should be 2, the second equation should be -2, the third equation should be -1, and the last equation should be -6.

Then, we can order them.

Here are three diffrent recipes for orangey-pinapple juice. Two of these mixtures taste the same and one taste diffrent. Recipe
arsen [322]
Recipe 1 : 4 cups oj with 6 cups pineapple.....ratio of 4/6 reduces to 2/3

recipe 2 : 6 cups oj with 9 cups pineapple...ratio 6/9 reduces to 2/3

recipe 3 : 9 cups oj with 12 cups pineapple....ratio 9/12 reduces to 3/4

so recipe 1 and recipe 2 will taste the same because the ratios are the same...and recipe 3 will be the different tasting one because it has a different ratio mixture

Four possibilities have probabilities 0.4, 0.2, 0.2 and 0.2 and values $40, $30, $20, and $10 respectively. The expected value i
LiRa [457]

Answer:

b. ​$28

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

0.4 = 40% probability of $40

0.2 = 20% probability of $30

0.2 = 20% probability of $20

0.2 = 20% probability of $10

The expected value is:

We multiply each value by its probability. So

E = 0.4*40 + 0.2*30 + 0.2*20 + 0.2*10 = 28

So the correct answer is:

b. ​$28
