Answer:
Ginny made a mistake in step 1 when she identified b = 31. It should be b=-31
Step-by-step explanation:
Ginny factored
as shown:
ac = –180 and
b = 31
36(–5) = –180 and 36 + (–5) = 31
+ 36x – 5x – 30
6x(x + 6) – 5(x + 6)
(x + 6)(6x – 5)
b is the coefficient of x and from the trinomial
, b=-31.
Therefore Ginny made a mistake in step 1 when she identified b = 31. It should be b = –31.
The correct steps are:
:
ac = –180 and
b = -31
36(–5) = –180 and -36+5 = -31

Answer: 21600 </h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
There are 6 letters to pick from {A,B,C,D,E,F} and we have two slots to fill, where no repeats are allowed. This means we have 6*5 = 30 different ways to pick two letters.
There are 10 digits to pick from {0,1,2,...,9} and there are 3 slots to fill. This gives 10*9*8 = 720 different permutations for this portion.
Overall, we have 30*720 = 21600 different serial numbers possible.
Answer:
x = 5/2 or x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x, we will have to get the equation 2x + 15 = 20 into the form x = _. That will be our answer.
2x + 15 = 20
Subtract 15 from both sides to get rid of the +15 on the left side.
2x = 20 - 15
Simplify.
2x = 5
Divide both sides by 2 to get rid of the coefficient of 2 on the left side.\
x = 5/2 = 2.5
x = 5/2 or x = 2.5
I hope you find my answer helpful. :)
Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Only 5 is not divisible by 12
Answer:
N is M reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of M and N are different.
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-axis is vertical, and the x-axis is horizontal. If a point, or image, is reflected over the x-axis, in this case M and N, then the signs of the y-coordinates do not change, and instead the coordinates of the x-axis change.
