Factoring the cubic you get: <span>(x - 2)^2 (x-4) , so we know the multiplicity is the amount of times a root shows in an equation because the equation (x-2) has a exponent of 2 that means the root 2 has a multiplicity of 2.</span>

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

θ ≈ 71.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between two lines with slopes m₁ and m₂ is:

tan θ = | (m₂ − m₁) / (1 + m₁m₂) |

Here, m₁ = -2 and m₂ = 1.

tan θ = | (1 − (-2)) / (1 + (-2)(1)) |

tan θ = | 3 / -1 |

tan θ = 3

θ ≈ 71.6°

Lena is converting 2/25 to a percent. What should she multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by to find the perc
NNADVOKAT [17]
A percent is a number out of 100, so you'd want to multiply the denominator to get 100. In this case, 25 would have to be multiplied by 4 to get 100. To keep the fractions equal to each other, you have to multiply the numerator by the same thing. 2*4=8. Therefore, your fraction would be 8/100 or 8%
